Free £25 Grand National bet

            I think I have messed it up. Went via quidco and left the code in place, and it wasn't the same one as was on Martin's page.
I feel sick now, I wish I had never bothered, what a waste of my money.
I normally only bet £2 and would never have done it otherwise.
I think it should be made clear that if you go through quidco then the code won't be the same and you will lose your £25.
Very upset! I can't cancel the bets now either. I am just going to have to write the money off. Absolutely gutted.
I know :mad:. The same thing happened me too - I'm just hoping that there is more than one working code. Once I got through to the betfair site I clicked on the free £25 advert and it just put me through to that form with the code already entered. I think it's really off if it doesn't go through and I will not be a happy bunny at all. I wouldn't have bet at all normally. On the plus side the quidco £ has tracked so even if the betfair £ doesn't go through it will even the loss out.0 -

I used the quidco code and got both £50 thru them and £25 back from betfair. Wait a while and see if it gets back in your betfair account.Man who stands on toilet is high on pot. - Old chinese proverb.0 -

Lay means that you are acting as the bookie, and taking bets from others.
Back means you are the punter.
You need to BACK not lay.Your = belongs to you
You're = you are0 -
