Betfair has designed the Premium Charge specifically so that no one can get their head around it.

And in trademark style, once the initial 60 week window had elapsed Betfair then changed the rules to a lifetime window. Wouldn't surprise me if that snared more people.

And of course, it changed commission generated to an imaginary 3%, being extremely favourable for their most Premium customers who then get slugged less than the proletariat.

The Betfair Forum has regular accounts of people (who don't present as overly-capable) getting slugged.
