    yes they will be placed - its just a warning. You can check under your account details to be certain - it should appear under current bets, filtered by matched.


    Thanks they are there it says i backed them...

    Just a note to those who have mentioned quidco.. mine tracked in about 1hr and although i went from quidco to betfair and then deposited £25 i then closed the betfair site down and started it back up again to wager my £25..

    hope that helps

    I really didn't know what I was doing but I seemed to have spent my £25 on £2 (and one £3) wins on various names I liked the sound of.

    Quidco has tracked £50 so I'm really chuffed.

    Oh can someone explain why a horse I tried to back came back as being "unmatched". I didn't know what to do so I cancelled it and chose another. I'm trying now to forget the name of that horse :)

    Woah, they've actually verified my age via the electoral register. wasn't expecting that to happen! did have to give them loads of info though, didn't really feel comfortable with them having so much info...damage is already done though!

    You can do each way by either going to "racing quick bet" or just put have on the win and half on the to be placed market

    Are you sure you can do each way. I can get the screen up for national quick bet, but when I click place bets now, nothing happens.

    Has anyone managed to place an each way bet?
  • Quidco are now offering £50 cashback on a deposit of at least £10 at Betfair till Midnight tonight. Done it through both my hubby and my own Quidco accounts, both tracked within an hour and show earnings of £50 each. Have placed our bets and fingers crossed. Don't think we'll have £25 credited via Betfair but I'm not bothered we would have had a few pounds on the National tomorrow anyway and this way we get our money back and a profit!

    Helping Hubby there is a quick bet link to the national! I found it after I've placed bets in the area you are talking about and haven't a clue what I've done but the quick link is more straight forward with the win and each way bet options and is far simpler!

    BE CAREFUL WITH Each Way Bets, I THINK THEY HAVE TO BE MATCHED, GO IN AND CHECK YOU BET STATUS!

    It's just tracked for me - I'm amazed! Pessimist that I am though, surely there's going to be problems with Betfair/Quidco paying out in the end? They'll have to pay out a lot of £50s!

    I need to pay £2 by credit card to confrim my age. Does anyone know how much the credit card company will charge me to do this? I could use Egg, Capital One, MBNA.... are any free to use?


    uSE A DEBIT CARD INSTEAD NO NEED TO PAY £2 TO CONFIRM CARD, AND YOU WON'T BE CHARGED A CC FEE. ONLY NEED TO CONFIRM IF YOU USE SOLO AND VECTRON
