Late scratchings- Why don’t they show % deductions?

Are you suggesting the TAB aren't being honest in applying the deduction formula? 

Otherwise, surely you can work it out for yourself. Using my bet above, (Expected collect minus actual collect) =800-480 equals 320. 

Then you divide 320 (the difference) by 800 (the expected collect) which equals 40, so you know the price must have been 80 (as per the formula) divided by 40 = $2. 

 

Brodie will not work anything out by himself. He wants it handed to him on a plate. Surely you must know this after all this time!

Where on earth have I questioned the TAB’s honesty?

What I am saying is that it should be advised what the % deductions are!

Punters go to the exercise of putting their money on and expect to get what their fixed ticket states.

However when there is a scratching they get a reduced amount, which is fair enough!

However, they should also have access to know what the deduction is prior to collection!!!!!

Does the TAB think that the punter should just accept what they are given without explaining how the reduced amount is calculated?

When the reduced amount is hundreds of dollars to some punters, I beleive that they are entitled to know!!!!

Nowornever,  what a stupid comment!!,

how on earth is anyone meant to work anything out if they have not been damn well given the figures to work anything out????

You need to engage your brain before you try to put “The Brodster “ down!

How are we to know what the fixed odds were when the horse was scratched if it isn’t damn well advised by the TAB?

Are we meant to be 24/7 watching the racing channels or computers????

Life is not always “Beer and Skittles”

Life is what you make it Ranga!

I am sure we all have regrets, and things we would like to change in life,mand or done things differently!

What is pointless is when people come on here and spurt things out without engaging their brain!

Nowornever needs to come back and advise us all how anyone can work out what a % deduction is going to be when the TAB do not advise what the fixed odds were!!!!!!!!

Poor Brodie, he's been given the figures but still cannot work it out. 

Agent54, you clearly haven’t got a clue!

Where does the TAB show what the scratched horses were laying when scratched so that we can work out % deductions???

Thats right you can’t because you don’t show them!!!

Yes can be worked out if you have that minor detail!

How on earth does the punter know that what he has received being hundreds of dollars less than their ticket shows, is correct, or they are just meant to accept what is given to them???????!

Simpleton clearly. You have been given the answer but can't comprehend it.

You are just being evasive again Agent54!!!

What answer have I been given, certainly not by yourself!

Where are these final field prices published when the horse is scratched?

Simple question Agent 54!

What are you an Agent for, or did you like Get Smart???

P.S. I thought JJ had gone for good?
