I think their app is great. I like the white text on black background. Apparently it gives some eye strain. I find it really difficult to see stuff on the TAB site so no good to me. Wouldn’t worry them, I think they don’t want any over 30’s as customers anyways. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Too many hassles But the no hassle tax rate at the TAB is too high plus Betfair give rewards to winners as well as losers. It's hard to avoid hassles these days. No outfit wants you ringing them and try to make it difficult for you to find their number. if you do manage to get them on the phone you often end up talking to someone in a land far far away. It can be hard to understand what their saying and or they can't understand what you're saying. Often they don't know the answer to your question. This forum is great. You ask the question and someone gives you an answer in minutes. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NZRacing Posted August 11 Share Posted August 11 (edited) If they are not taking credit or debit card deposits go to a dairy or gas station and ask for a 'paysafe voucher' for the amount you want - then use the voucher numbers to deposit on Betfair. The DIA clowns think that by blocking credit/card deposits to overseas gambling sites will stop NZ punters using them. Paysafe vouchers are only one of a number of ways you can top-up by first withdrawing funds from a ATM . Sadly the DIA gambling knowledge would be on par with a 12 year old. With the DIA doing the framework for the Govt's allocation of online sites to be regulated with an auction process will no doubt be a major stuff up. Quote Brooke van Velden, the Minister of Internal Affairs, emphasizes that this regulation is not about increasing gambling but ensuring it’s done safely and responsibly while keeping the revenue within the country. https://thedailyblog.co.nz/2024/08/11/new-zealands-online-gambling-regulation-a-game-changer/ Bottom line is It will decrease revenue to the Racing Industry. Online casino betting is far more attractive to the younger generation than horse and sports betting. DIA = Dummies In Action.

I'm not aware that Betfair accept Paysafe payments. How do you do that when it's not offered as a payment option? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
