Gday Sportz, R U not interested in gaining better dividends for your selections? You are joking ofcourse.. Unless ofcourse you happen to be a TAB employee.. To tell the truth it is a lot easier to place a bet with betfair than it is on a couple of these TAB sites... I can make a place syetem actually retun a positive on Betfair, whereas I have no chance on the tote... The takeout will always kill you.. That is the 3rd Guarantee in life I would suggest that people who obviously are unsure/uneducated about betting exchanges (and it's not their fault) go and have a look and learn.. Forget the crap pedalled by the TABS and other partisans, If you believe their drivel, U will believe that the new IR laws are good for workers... Or that competition has not made phone bills cheaper... and have a look for yourself, do some research.. before making a "me neither" statement... U may well be a convert

Gday honda ( I got me one of those ) couldnt agree more with what you have to say.. The tripe being pedalled about copyright of race fields is absolute garbage.. and they (TABS RACING NSW etc) should know it... The English Bookmakers went down that line of litigation and got absolutely buried, when Betfair first raised their heads. They were smashed in the courts... the same will happen here... All that will happen is that the people who are paid up members/shareholders of these organisations are going to foot the bill for a hefty legal fight.. which they will lose.. Remember Racing NSW were the rocket scientists who took the Sydney Race Clubs to court over TVN... they got buried there as well.. not too many there with high IQ's I have NO SYMPATHY at all for the establishment at ALL.. They have treated US THE PUNTERS as a milking cow for far too long.. and they have treated us with contempt.. I still cant see Sydney and Victorian Racing at home because of these dills don't consider regional racing enthusiasts as important..... but what do they care? I might still be a milking cow, but at least I now have a choice ( have had it for a couple of years actually) who gets to squeeze my teats...

Hi, Xptdriver.
I believe a similar situation happened back in the twenties/thirties(?) when a radio station had a race-caller "illegally" broadcast the Sydney races from outside the racecourse using a pair of binoculars. The radio station was sued by the STC/AJC/officials re copyright, but they lost, or the case was thrown out when it went to court. Anyone know what the situation will be in NSW? When I try to deposit money into my Betfair account, a message appears to the effect that my credit card is out of date, which it isn't. I can't find anywhere on the site to "update" it so I presume there is a lock on my account preventing me from making a deposit. Hopefully I will be able to do so when Betfair begins operations in Tassie. Go, Brian. At least he's currently scoring a few runs, even though Warney is giving him a few problems. I knew I shouldn't have said anything about Brian - he's out! Talk about bad umpiring!!!! Last edited by michaelg : 4th November 2005 at 05:09 PM.

i have moved to the tassie tote site. i can put money in there at the local postoffice if i need to.
racetab site is too user unfriendly it wont let me update or deposit either and is too slow. go bet fair maybe the tabcorp will one day take off the injunction and let us watch the races and realise that there is more than one tab and they need the customers.

Gday michael as for NSW... they will not be able to stop you placing bets with Betfair once it is licensed... they cant do a whole lot now as it stands...Once one state licences it, I believe the constitution says something about no restriction of trade between the states.. and terrortories as well I think.. I am no lawyer tho... But I think that is the loophole that allows someone in say NSW to buy hardcore non violent porn, (which is not for sale legally in NSW) from The ACT or NT.. I think that is basically the part of the constitutiuon that will allow it... This Paul Lennon is really giving it to the racing establishment.. Have a read here: http://www.abc.net.au/news/newsitem...11/s1497906.htm As for Brian... Yeah dud decison.. but I will take em after the crap dished up by the umpires during the ashes against some of our blokes LBW... I think the best way to top up your betfair account (you should really only deposit once ya know  the rest should all be withdrawls) is by bank deposit... Ring the free number ( I think it is still there) and they will tell you how to go about it... There has been a block put on drawing funds FROM Betfair to credit cards issued here, but not the other way around as far as I know..

As the others said try again, or find an alternative. If they blocked your account they would tell you why. I know they have ip checkers to determine your location, so this would come up in the error message if it were the reason. I would suggest you ring them and ask them. They have a toll free number for Australians, and they generally answer the phone immediately.
