Goodbye betfair, hello betdaq

[Rod Flanders]

After a while using betfair ive finally decided to ditch them as they are useless wasters, sick of all the suspensions, terrible customer service, premium charges etc........

last night i placed a large back bet on a horse and layed it off for a profit of £59, i checked it on betfair and the bets(back and lay) were in matched bets. I then checked after the race and only a back bet was showing and my stake was lost, i phoned them and got the usual cheek from the morons who work there, so my lay bet has dissapeared and im left out of pocket.

I will never bet on betfair ever again!!!!

Ive moved to betdaq and wont look back,

Betfair = a shower of s***e

What was their reason for dropping the bet? Did they fail to turn the market in play? Is it showing in your voided / cancelled / lapsed bets?

Rod I get the feeling you may not be alone ! at some point many poeple will look to Daq! Having said that I've been saying that for 5 years LOL:WTF

As for Betfair :Naughty:Naughty

you gonna use Daqbot or Angel??

[Rod Flanders]

yes ill need a new trading ap unless mr geek makes a betdaq version,

its utter robbery that premium charge and the site crashes are far too risky,

they have screwed me denying i layed the bet,

they wont miss me and i certainly wont miss them,

i dont see why folk dont jump over to daq and the money would be just as big,

the liquidity for tv footy and the gg's is decent just need other sports to get better.

I use something else, not as good as The Toy, but it has one thing in common - it's free

[The Joker]

yh I tried it a while back but not used it recently, couldn't figure out if it had all the features of daq or not ! more like couldn't be bothered at the time LOL

[The Joker]

Just dloaded and had a play it shows the inplay delay for the nags on betdaq as 1sec!

[The Joker]

eeeew adobe air ?:WTF

I remmember now I tried this before and didn't like it I think I'll leave this alone unless someone can calm my fears LOL

[Torrezno]

Im sorry to hear about your loss Rod, and understand how you feel.

Good luck with the purple site

[neeeel]

why doesnt this forum organise a betdaq day? I would be up for moving my trading for 1 day a week, if I could actually make a deposit to the site lol. Surely if a large group of traders who use TT moved for 1 day a week betfair would have to take some notice? Choose a day where the big guns arent able to use big stakes, mondays maybe? I know its been suggested before, but that was before the power of The Toy!!

[The Geek]

Trouble with that is you'd have to go back to Bet Devil for that. evil

[neeeel]

well u could use betdaqs free one, or is it sh!te?

[The Joker]

Daqbot is free too geek no need to have peewee rubbing his hands with glee.
Probably why he's pushing newer traders towards betdaq, so he can start charging for it! Not as fierce competition over there!!

Good to hear that another one has moved to the purple side, but i feel sorry for your loss.

I moved my money from Betfair to Betdaq 2 months ago and i have traded on the purple side only the 1st month. I stopped trying to trade there because there is no money. It's also hard to trade big gaps because no one is matching your bet. Well maybe the situation is better there because the weather is getting warmer.

As for Betdaq trading software i would recommend that you read this because i don't want to write the same things again :-p

When i'm trading on Betdaq i actually use Betdaqs software because i have the ladder, green-up possibility and thats all i need.


I'm struggling again on Betfair so i'm again starting to look for some tactics that could work on the purple side.

Good luck with trading.
