'They punish people who win and they exploit people who lose': Sports betting's dirty secrets revealed

Lawyers acting for the company told the ABC that the purpose of the testing was designed to reduce"naturally occurring" delays experienced by customers when placing bets over the phone.He claims the testing was to see whether customers would notice if there was a delay for in-play betting on certain sports.

The ABC contacted the manager in question and asked him to confirm Mr Poppleton's allegation. He did not respond. He claims any delay would give more time for a bookmaker to reject a punter's bet or reconsider the odds on offer.Mr Poppleton concluded that it had solved the problem of sharp punters winning on in-play and it was no longer necessary to use the"problem customer" policy.He claims the alleged delay was big enough to make a difference but small enough for the punter not to notice and gave bet365 an unfair advantage.

Even the TAB will not accept your bets. You can try to have a $500 win bet. They will only accept whatever they want. The whole system is a scam. Cheers

They deem you as not a recreational punter. Therefore,they don’t want your business. Like all the other corporate bookmakers. They only want losers. No one is allowed to win. Cheers

Unsaon Daw

gamble = idiot

How can they get away with saying they promote responsible gambling when they only bet losers and won’t bet winners ? Surely there needs to be legislation to bet all

what a crap article. sweating and despite personal risk very sensational information that has nothing to do with his limited comments

About time this got some mainstream attention. 365 is the absolute worst but there are numerous others not far behind. If all punters who've been restricted actually sent details in via the forms in this article, it might get some traction. I've just done so, with evidence.

It's simply really, just don't gamble. It's all designed so you don't make money. It's all a one way street.

DO. NOT. GAMBLE. simple

An absolute disgrace and the whench that owns it pays herself 300mil a year. wake up ya sheep. YOU CANT WIN!!!
