Now consider the effect of that ~$2,222 initial charge allowance.

The very convenient consequence for Betfair is that it conveniently allows it to understate the true % of customers affected by the charges.

Without that allowance there could easily be say 10 times the number affected.

But as that allowance is only a once only offer, more customers will blow it forever week after week and the % affected will soar and soar.

One more reason to question Betfair's claim of how few will be affected.
