CM. Posted December 17, 2010 Share Posted December 17, 2010 OK I've made a 6 team accumulator at Ladbrokes, and came home to find that one of the games (St Johnstone v Dundee United) has been called off. My questions are: 1) If I take it in before the games start, will they refund me? 2) In the event of other matches not going my way anyway and the St Johnstone game being rendered useless to me, if I go in later is there any way they'll still refund me? I'm guessing not but just in case. 3) If I keep the accumulator and all the other results come in, will I be able to keep it untill the St Johnstone game is replayed, and still claim the winnings should that game also go my way? Cheers, just trying to work out what the best thing to do with this is now. 1) Not as far as I know. 2) No. 3) Yes. Although in past experience if a game's been postponed I've just claimed the winnings when all the other selections have came up, rather than waiting. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know why it didn't cross my mind that they'd pay up for the other 5 results if they all came in, seems extremely obvious now that you've pointed it out. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The answer to three is no - unless the game is replayed within the same calendar week (Mon - Mon). It's my understanding that if this doesn't happen the Saints game will be void and the bet will stand on the remaining matches. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will the bet stand with same odds? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest The Phoenix Posted December 17, 2010 Share Posted December 17, 2010 Will the bet stand with same odds? As I say I'm pretty sure the Saints game is void unless rearranged for this week. The odds payable will be the original multiple odds of the 5 remaining teams. Hypothetically, if the Saints game were rearranged for this week the original odds should be honoured by the bookmaker. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fudge Posted December 17, 2010 Share Posted December 17, 2010 Aye, has been said, it will just become a 5 fold. From what TP has mentioned, sometimes it's less than a week leeway they give a potential rescheduled game. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dave258 Posted December 17, 2010 Share Posted December 17, 2010 You can hang onto said slip until after the game is rearranged, but since you're then sitting on a line with 5 winners I'd advise just to collect. You'd be beeling if you held onto it for 3 months or whatever, guaranteed to win some cash, only for the result not to go your way. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the postponed game doesn't take place in a set time limit (3-5 days depending on bookies it's just void) 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dave258 Posted December 17, 2010 Share Posted December 17, 2010 If the postponed game doesn't take place in a set time limit (3-5 days depending on bookies it's just void) I'd guess it must depend on the bookie then, as I did just what I said on a 4 team accumulator where a Celtic game was postponed and the other 3 came in. 4 weeks or so later, Celtic won the rearranged game and Hills paid out on the original bet. Was about 2 years ago though. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest The Phoenix Posted December 17, 2010 Share Posted December 17, 2010 If the postponed game doesn't take place in a set time limit (3-5 days depending on bookies it's just void) Deffo 7 days with Hill's. I don't believe any bookie will let a bet stand for longer than that though because other games will have been played and so many variables come into play. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ffcsam Posted December 18, 2010 Share Posted December 18, 2010 The little bag of salad is there as a wee refresher for your mouth. I don't eat it either but I love the spiced onions you get with ur curry -1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
endieinreekie Posted December 18, 2010 Share Posted December 18, 2010 I like the onions but don't understand why they waste all that salad when I imagine that very few people eat it. It does go straight in the bin, but it's just so pointless 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Unleash The Nade Posted December 18, 2010 Share Posted December 18, 2010 Why oh why do Indian restaurants include those shitty little bags of salad in your takeaway? Does anyone actually eat them? What is the point? Its a psychological trick, to make you feel like you're getting more than you actually are. Its the same technique when many restaurants fill your platye with salad "garnish" in sead of giving you extra meat,chips etc 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Karpaty Posted December 18, 2010 Share Posted December 18, 2010 I have Sky, just the normal package. But I want the sports channels for, say a week. Is it possible to upgrade for this amount of time or do I need to subscribe for about 3 years before I'm allowed to cancel? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are Sky experts on here, so don't take this as gospel, but my impression was always that you could change your package on a monthly basis. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
