Betting on Politics: Predictit is NOT Dead

correct, they also have individual markets on that. Might be pure gambling or beat people to info though, I only have NO’s in Feb for now.

I just glanced at R/R–believe dems have 221. That staring 99c in the face is like okay what am I missing here, but nah think that’s safe

I still haven’t been able to withdraw my presidential bet winnings (~35k€) on Betfair exchange. My account was suspended for one year on 21st November god knows why, they can’t or won’t tell me. I created an account just for the presidential elections and made 5 bets total, never bet there before that.

I have chatted with “customer service” at least twice a week, it’s the only channel of communication because they won’t answer my emails. I’ve sent them bank statements for several accounts and then they say my IBANs are invalid or some other bullshit. They can’t open my account for one minute so I could withdraw the money myself. Today I tried to withdraw to Paypal, let’s see what happens, won’t hold my breath.

I must escalate this but how and to where? It really seems like they are doing this on purpose for some fucking reason, I really doubt people can be that incompetent in their jobs. :frowning:

Some people may have had success using social media to escalate an issue and turn it into a PR problem.

I had a dispute with BetOnline over election betting and I was able to file a claim at SBR and they were able to get in touch with management to get it sorted out. It helped my case that they had BOL as one of their top rated A+ books, I think. But you really have to be able to somehow get in touch with upper management, dealing with the underlings goes nowhere. Some of these books also have top management/PR guys that you can tweet at and get their attention. But definitely file a claim with SBR and see if that helps.

Self pardon down to $0.17.

One day left, but wasn’t it assumed it would be on the last day? I’m buying at that price.

D/D senate is about 50/50 now in 2 days

still guessing D/R but I might get seriously wrecked here, sigh

Ha, I bought some of that too. And sprinkled a few dollars on Rudy getting pardoned at .02 for shits and giggles.

You realize the rudy pardon market is for 2020 right?

Thank you , I made a claim, hope it speeds up this nightmarish process. It really shouldn’t take a month and 20 chats with customer service to process one withdrawal.

I’m usually very calm and non-confrontational but this level of incompetence and stupidity makes me wanna punch a wall and kill a kitten. Is customer service usually this terrible?

well I’m bad and feel bad, guess I punted

still not selling at 10 though, he still has to finish cert today.

plenty of free money at 98 that’ll resolve when it’s certified, and some cabinet still at 90 or just under it that are literally free. but I probably punted nearly all of that so lol me
