I don't know how many of you place a bet with Betfair using their mobile app website. Of an evening I'll sometimes place a bet on my iPad, but there is a 'glitch' evident when you place a Lay bet. You'll get the fright of your life!

Attached is a SP bet placed on 'Where And When' the other night. It was for $1000 liability. You'll note that the confirmed bet displays that my liability if the horse wins, is $244,290! What the.....??

I raised it with them some time ago and their response was:

"Our Technical team have discovered that the issue is a bona fide 'bug'. Whenever someone places an SP lay bet with an odds limit, the liability will be mis-reported as though it was the profit of a back bet. They've also advised that internally, the bet is processed correctly, so I can assure you that the intended liability is the actual liability and all bets will be settled correctly.

The error has been escalated onto our mobile development team and will be fixed in a future release."
