    Yey!!!!!

    Back two horses and one won!!!!! Just won £87 plus my original £10 stake back. Add this to the £50 quidco and to say I'm happy is an understatement!!

    .......only thing is that my original £25 has not been credited back to my account???? I used the code that Martin gave on the first page. Anyone know when they give this back???

    ....sorry just read instructions again and it says that it can take up to 24hrs

    Oh Gawd.....who's gonna explain?!

    I just tried to register with betfair through quidco link to benefit from both the £25 deal and the £50 deal.
    I typed in the code that Martin provided but there seems to be a problem.
    Here is the message I get



    Now I have checked the password, no caps lock, used both letters and numbers. What am I doing wrong?



    Thanks in advance!

    I see what I did wrong now :o

    I copy and pasted Martins code and for some reason it didn't work, worked now I typed it in manually :j

    i registered about an hour ago with betfred using an electron card, thought i'll scan proof of age in a bit when i get a chance, just checked my e-mail address and got an e-mail saying my account/age has been verified account in now open to be used (eventhought i hadn't sent any proof) checked on betfred and it is indeed done, so deposited my £25.00.

    heres fingers crossed for tomorrow, just waiting now for quidco to be tracked.

    You do mean betfair....don't you?

    Sorry, complete newby here have read and re read but still have a question!

    Edit - I have just called the overseas number instead 020 8834 8060, spoke with a really helpful chap. He said I did it all correct, no verifying I was just too quick off the mark!

    Well at least I've figured out how to place a bet :D

    Is there a screen that lists all the bets I've made? I can get a list of bets in the "placed" market and a list of those in the "win only" market - so 2 separate lists. Is there a way to get up ALL my bets on one screen, with a running total of how much I have bet?

    I assumed that with each bet i made the stake money would automatically be deucted from the money i deposited, thus enabling me to see how much money I had left to bet with, but this doesn't seem to have happened. So does the stake money not get deducted from the account until nearer the race? If so is there a way to keep track that I haven't found yet or shall I just stop being lazy and add up my bets myself? :D

    Sorry, complete newby here have read and re read but still have a question!

    I placed £25 with a LLoyds visa debit card, direct to my bank. It flagged up proof of age, but now seems to have gone. I have not had an email to confirm my account being opened.

    When I go into my betfair account it shows 25.00 in red so I guess that is for the 5 x £5 bets I have placed, But I can't find anywhere the list of the actual bets? The obvouse page of bets made shows none is that right?

    Also I thought I waould call to check the age thing and there number of 0844 871000 says number not in use!

    Please can any one help me out.

    Thank you!

    If you go to the Grand National page, on the right middleish there are 4 tabs - Place Bets, My Bets, Rules, Help - if you click My Bets, then this will show your bets.
