I just called up both Ladbrokes and Sportsbet to see if they would revise my account so I can have fixed odds back; both said no.

This is really sh--. I honestly believe they'd get more money out of me (actually they haven't gotten any over the last month) if they let me bet on fixed odds. I was losing HEAPS through both! Down more than $10k for Ladbrokes and $5k through Sportsbet.

How are they even allowed to do this? Is this purely because they are UK owned?
