Good to hear you have a life, not sure you answered my question about being restricted or not? If you aren’t restricted I would not think that you ever had a $50k balance in your account otherwise I would say you are the type of person that the AML people are after! You must still be busy if you haven’t got time to answer a simple question.

Not too,sure what was happening in the Juniors race though! Why would the driver on Flying Mr Ideal hand up to a horse much inferior to what he was driving and then get pushed back on the fence?

To be fair both of the horses that won were always going to be improved by Mitch and Matt, bearing in mind where they have been trained from. Arcano has won about 9 races and although mainly Manawatu, he would be improved being trained in Canterbury. Noble Mistress is another case as she had shown nothing. There are a lot of horses racing that would be much improved by going into a, professional stable and some Blood Spinning!

What punters card? Have I missed something?

Race 5 at Addington tonight was a standing start over 2000 metres for non winners! If you didn’t watch it live, you need to look at the replay to see that it should’ve been a false start undoubtedly. The 3 outside horses all got fliers and were all lengths in front of the 4th horse just after the start! That would seem fairly rare, but the reason being is that they were metres in front of all the other horses on the inside that were metres behind the tape when the starter let them go????? Ridiculous performance

How Mitch Kerr and Matt Anderson have improved Noble Mistress. It won like a good horse and yet it would have struggled to run another place for Maria Perriton as it had been struggling to be anywhere near competitive. Those 2 fellahs are going to be very good trainers. Happy, you are dead right in regard to the big bets that the TAB supposedly takes whereas others get eff all on!! This is why I have had a campaign against the TAB with their unfair treatment of some and favourable treatment of others. Anyway I will watch Harness Racing but as for investing with the NZ TAB, I am not going to bother as it just is not worth the effort with this new BS about having to identify yourself!! Hope all you punters take the TAB to the cleaners! e

Come in Nowornever! Would be interested in your answers to my questions, or have you gone to ground? Semi-retired? What does that mean, you are part time government paid worker?

There are only so many accounts you can use though. You watch there is going to be major ramifications over this BS. I am not bothering anymore, hope it blows up in their faces, they deserve it.

Wouldn’t have a clue Whiplash, I doubt they do either. There is no logic to the policy. You are lucky then that the TAB allowed you to get your balance to 50k. We’re you a restricted punter or a losing punter? If you were restricted what was your restriction?

FFS Noworknowall! Which part”of punters putting on $2 isn’t money laundering, or assisting terrorism, do you not understand???? You are clearly a government paid worker going by your support of a stupid policy. What chance has the TAB got of being more successful if the bosses can not negotiate a sensible amount as to what could constitute money laundering in this day and age???

Ranga, you are a dickhead

Nowornever, Where does it say in the flippen Act that it is to be $1k for Casinos or TAB? If the DIA wanted and had agreed on the $1k then why the hell has it not been written into the flippen act? Answer me that one Mr Noworknowall???? I can tell you from experience that the NZ TAB tells porkies!

Chief, you are correct but as I keep saying the NZ TAB is behind the $1k limit not the DIA! The $1k enables the TAB to know so much more about who is winning and so they can restrict them, and gives them total control that is what it is about. Anyway I have more than said my bit about this topic. It was not me that picked up about the 1k that the TAB has adopted rather than the AML Act saying that it should be $10k. I will leave it now to everyone else to bet and be restricted and let’s see if everyone is happy about it. I am over the BS from the NZ TAB!!!!!!!!

Where is the lie Ranga?? Every punter is being treated as a launderer by requiring anyone that collects $1k as a possible launderer even if they bet $2

And your point is????? Where does it say that they want the TAB to get identification from everyone who bets or collects $1k rather than the $10k???????

Good, but not that good!

Still $10k CP as at 3/7/19 unless someone can find it has been amended. TAB initiative and blaming on MOJ

As per 3/7/19 it still appears to be 10k unless someone can find where it has been altered by the Ministry of Justice? Appears to be a TAB initiative but blaming on MOJ!

That is what I said Ranga, dah!

Hardly a great look Ranga No restrictions if I am not unloading!

Even the pub TABs are going to have to get the iDs as well, and during busy times it will be a pain in the butt for staff who work pouring drinks and the TAB! Ridiculous decision, they deserve to get reduced turnover!

Bollocks. The TAB hierarchy who are paid big money can surely point out the error of their ways to the Dept. of Internal Affairs If they insist that it is their idea to not fun with the AML act which clearly states the figure of 10k!!!!!!!! Why does the DIA believe that it should be on pathetic amounts of $1k for the TAB, do they think that there is plenty being laundered thru the TAB agencies???? If people are putting money thru TAB accounts as laundering then it is so easy to trace, so it is only agencies and oncourse that it will involve. We are not that stupid to believe that the DIA suggested the TAB adopt $1k and involve every single transaction over $1k even if it is from someone that has been lucky enough to get a trifecta!! Look, going around in circles and we are all entitled to believe what we like, but if punters believe that people are money laundering thru the TAB from spending $2 and should have to prove who they are, then they are delusional!!!

Totally correct Chief! It is another badly thought out policy from the TAB. It is hard to understand how the people that make these stupid decisions and policies ever get to be in these positions to be able to make these stupid decisions. It will come back to bite them on the butt!

Totally agree Whiplash that the TAB needs laundering to increase their turnover and profit. I reiterate it is not to do with money laundering the reduced amount of 1k rather than the 10k. It is all about being able to control the punters otherwise why isn’t the AML act altered to the $1k???? Why not because the NZ TAB in their wisdom want it and no one will be able to convince bigger punters otherwise.

Don’t bother reading and commenting then. You obviously can not take much then? A Forum is designed for people to express their opinions whether you agree with it or not! The fact remains that the decision to treat every punter as a possible money launderer is just blatantly stupid and the TAB is wanting to increase profit going forward?
