Sorry kathfisch, overlapped.0

Didn't think about that. Thanks guys, might just open an account.0

The thing is there are some people that are now opening a pigback account then opening a betfair account multiple times, thay get the 500 points for the first play(with the chance of somthing extra)
then they withdraw the 500 pts for a 5 pound voucher, credit £5 from paypal which gets you another free 5 quid on first deposit, then withdraw the 15.
the people who are doing this must be very desperate as to do all this and play the game takes a bit of time, taking off the time it take to get the money and little fees along the way.
by all means you can get your poker credits and withdraw them, however the more it happens the more likely it is to stop.0 -

true, I was wondering whether it was the kind of loophole (as it were) that they'd want to close. or whether they are happy with the money going into people's betfair account on the offchance that they'll bet with it, rather than withdraw it.Don't stress, relax, let life roll off your backs.

If the people doing this are the sort who a 5er means a lot to, then its highly unlikely thay are going to chance it. (Afterall chasing it it up messing about with new accounts takes 2 hours per a fiver, broken down)
£2.50 an hour ask your self is it really worth it.
Or the chance that you just fancy risking a 5er and you win 100 notes, you then think you can do it again and again, you start gambling more and more, next thing you know you are depositing money and losing it all eventually on a regular basis ending up massive amounts all because you wanted to save
150 points.
Plus the fact that pigsback ain't going to want everyone using the points at the same place are they, no good companies being in the scheme is it.
Perhaps the best thing to do is try and get the 150 point postage and handling charges dropped (though what would be more sensible was to make it 150 points per order not per voucher)0 -

I have got about 9400 pp and I was thinking about John Lewis or Arcadia group vouchers, and that woul give me £80 worth. But, if I use betfair, I could get £90 - I think I am willing to withdraw my money, as £14 in p&p seems ridiculuous. Especially with people complaining recently that vouchers are not turning up!!!Spring into Spring 2015 - 0.7/12lb0 -
Remember that betfair now have a closed loop policy, any withdrawals must be made back to the deposit source first.
Not sure how they apply it in this case.
I suppose you might be able to do a bank transfer, or get a cheque (normally only takes 2 days)0 -

£1.50 per item is reasonable, cost of stamp and envolpe is min.
but the value of the items sent need to be covered for loss and then they have to pay somone to make up the orders and put a bit of sticky tape on the seal (and those with compliments slips).
the idea of the vouchers is that you have spent the money with the supporters of the reward scheme, it does seem stupid that £10 reward is 1000pts one place and 1150 for another.0 -
