    I wasn't sure whether me and daughter had got our £25 back. But we have. Didn't realise, they didn't take the £25, which we bet with, out of our bank accounts, so, I am up £35, and daughter is up £50.85 ~ plus we both got the £50 tracked in Quidco. All in all a great win and a bit of excitement watching the National which I normally would not have bothered to do. So huge thanks for the original post.

    I am sure I read somewhere that the account needed to be active for the £50 from Quidco, so I am leaving the money in, and will occasionally have a flutter until I get the Quidco payout.

    Just logged into my credit card account and seen I have been charged a £3 cash advance fee for the Betfair transaction, takes the shine of my winnings ever so slightly!

    Are you sure they seem to have debitted everyone else the £25 from the bank then you get a credit which you can withdraw...
    Check your Betfair statement will show your initial £25 deposit list of bets and winnings then should show the £25 refund.

    The £25 I paid from my debit card was only taken from my bank account yesterday. My Betfair account still isn't showing the £25 refund, just the £30.73 winnings - my quidco did track at £50.

    Not sure on figures, but I wonder whether it will be more or less, in the long run, than Betfair make from "hooking" these new customers?
