Early pay out on 2012 Premier League result

Someone should include that betfred paid out on united winning the league when they were 8 points clear and that wasn't the smartest move. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 62.45.193.229 (talk) 23:59, 13 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Bad for business

Bookies BetFred won’t pay out granny’s Olympics bet apparently because the medal was won in a team event not individually! However the betting slip makes no mention of that it just says he needed to win "a medal". All over a grand too! Seems too pathetic for words considering the turnover of this company is in the billions!!86.147.56.163 (talk) 15:55, 23 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]
