I am definately off the mailing list on Betfair despite opting in. I didn't get the mailer that went out this morning but others did, including my wife. It looks like my account is switched off to receive emails. Anybody else experiance this?

Yes, I never get these emails and I get all the news in second hand. I feel like the betrayed husband!

I didn't use to get any - then one day I heard about the points prizes give aways they do from time to time. I think form memory they said I had opted out. I was sure I never had and got on my soap box and moaned I had never received even a mouse matt off them despite paying them a heap in commissions while others who paid very little were getting prizes.
A few days later I got a knock at the door and the delivery man handed me a box I wasn't expecting. I opened it up and they had sent me a Cap, Jacket and not one but two mouse matts and a note saying I would now receive all offers.
Since that date I have received all emails, but not any other gifts - the accountants took over!
Sorry for the trip down memory lane, but what are we expecting from tomorrow?
I am guessing they are rolling out fully the new website with faster logins and much faster page loads?
I don't think we are due to see the new sports book yet are we?

Seems to me that the website is much faster, not sure what else is new though?

They were due to launch the much faster loading site so I assume this is it. Have to say it is a vast improvement....So far....Ethanol wrote:That's probably because no-one's using it yet... I'm sure it'll be slow as usual before long.
Can't see anything different, myself.
