    Not too sure if this has been brought up before (probably) but I have just came across a major problem with the way that your jackpots work.

    I have just staked 1000 piggy points on England to win the 6 Nations Championship.

    At the time I placed the bet I have a potential win of 2892 points, as it stands I currently stand to win 2687. By the time the tournament comes to an end I will end up owing PB points!!

    The competition states that the jackpot finishes on March 11th.

    What is the point on closing a "bet" when over half the competition is over and there is more chance of a winner being predicted? Surely you are only lining yourselves up to lose more points by people betting late?

    This also means that less anyone who bets early in the competition is likely to be stung by people betting later.

    Why not stop betting at the kick off of the first match? That way everyone knows that once the game starts you have a set number of potential winnings as opposed to a dwindling number?

    I appreciate that this isnt fixed odds betting, nor is it spread betting but to be in a position where your winnings are taken away by others after fronting up a stake surely goes against the moral idea behind betting?

    And also they deduct 20% from your winnings??

    :confused:


    Hey I'll get back to you on this as soon as possible. I'm not the right person to answer it but I know who is!!

    Did DaRragh say they were working on putting the winner of the crossword on the page?

    In that case - apologies for clicking on it, and in all fairness I owe you 40 points in that case.

    Please please could it be fixed so that we can't click strays not meant for us?

    As has been said before most of us are very keen to play by the Piggy rules and treat you as you would treat us.

    There is a forgotten, nay almost forbidden word which means more to me than any other. That word is England.
