    Has anyone tried to withdraw their winnings yet ?? I placed my money with them via my paypal account BUT when i come to withdraw the winnings I find that I am required to confirm my age. I am offered the facility of entering my credit card details into a popup on a page that doesnt display a padlock. Or to send a copy of an identity document ie driving licence or passport etc. Not being happy about either I rang them Seems there is another way they can verify age without haing to disclose sensitive info. Must say the guy from betfair was most helpful and even said he would reinstate the £25 promotion that i failed to register. I may be come a sensible betting man and use that £25 to have another little flutter

    We won too!!
    Me - £48 plus £50 quidco
    OH - No win but £30 quidco
    Mum - £18 plus £30 quidco
    Dad - £40 plus £30 quidco
    Sister £44 plus £30 quidco.

    OH backed all the donkeys as he rationalised that it wasn't his money he was gambling with. I had Comply or Die £2 to win and when I worked out how to put it EW put another £3 on. Thanks Martin you are a star!!!

    ive been asked to provide ID, but Im holding out to be honest, I think it might be necessary in case I want to continue using this account without restrictions? bit miffed that it might cost me £2, but i'd have spent more on that in a proper bookies, so if I get my £25 back with a £2 spend I'm happy. Its not really a misleading tip from Martin. You shouldn't bet if you can afford/risk to lose the £25

    I like it how when you register they ask for your phone number and state it will only ever be used to contact me if they have to about my account.

    Less than 24hrs later and I get my first spam text from them. :(

    Was it this one...

    Can this be true?

    i paid by cc and I am unable to take out more than my stake? How daft what is the point if you cannot claim winnings??

    I havent been paid my £25 back but was happy to have won

    Has any one else had this problem?

    I have had £30 tracked on quidco, didn't have any winners in race, but i haven't had my £25 back, do they refund it straight back to your debit card or do they put it back into the betfair account?

  • Thanks again Martin.

    I won £64! Haven't had the £25 back yet but a great result so far.

    I wonder how much MSE'rs have cost Betfair today (assuming we all have the willpower to withdraw our winnings and are not tempted to carry on based on todays success)!
