Thumbs down Dodgy tab tickets

Hi all,
Not probabally in the right spot to post this but, it did involve my staking system so have a look.

The other day i went to the TAB to put on a bet, it was pretty big for the old dingo so the account wasnt up to it so to the tab to place it, four runners, equal ammount on each, it was a pretty big bet !

Now, i stood there and watched it, (first time in about ten years that i have stood in a tab with the other loosers), my selection came in and paid 8.8 on nsw, great, progression was over, tidy profit, walk out with the blank look on the face so no one notices the bulge in ones back pocket, but NAHH!!!!.

Dingo walks out and decides that he will go home, pick up the two or three little tickets scatered around the house and pop down latter to collect them all.

Comes back next day and "scanned them", nill pay.
Ol mate behind the counter says "sorry mate, nill pay"

I comes back, checked on the net, sure enough the thing had payed, correct weight, no protests, nothing. Whats going on i thinks.

Goes to TAB, asks ol mate again, this time he manually puts the ticket in, "OOOOHHHH he says as the bells ring loudly from the tab, how would you like it, in hundreds or fifties"

Sorry for the long winded story but has anyone else seen or heard of this, i wonder how much is not claimed each year ?

MY POINT IS HOW MANY PUB OR TAB PUNTERS WHO MAY HAVE HAD A COUPLE WOULD HAVE JUST CRUSHED THE OLD TICKET UP AND DISCARDED IT TO THE TRASH BIN IN THE CORNER, PROBABALLY MISSED THE BIN AND BOUNCED INTO THE SMOKE TRAY AND WENT UP IN FLAMES.

Cheers
Dingo-now correctly paid-boy
Heres to keeping your tickets and knowing whats going on !
