Several months ago Tabcorp replace its ‘Live Odds’ web service with the ‘RapidBet’ web service at the same time restricting its download of dividends information to account holders with a turnover of at least $25,000 per annum. Smaller punters who were using the data for their own purposes were left out.
I was wondering what some of those smaller punters did to reclaim that dividend information, if anything.
The only options I could see at the time were-
1. Increase betting turnover to reach the minimum $25000 turn over requirement.
2. Buy in the data from a 3rd party. Around $50 per month?
3. Scrape dividends from the Tab.Mobi web site.
For my part I switched my betting to TattsBet where I could use its xml service.
Perhaps someone has found another way round the problem?
