Hey, anyone know whether there is anything I can do here:
Put a bet on last night, including Poirier, Bendo & JDS. I put the bet on at 11.24pm UK time on William HIll bookmakers online. They all win, so I come to my online account this morning and they say Poirier vs Garza is a void, so no payout on that. I ring up and ask why, they say the fight started at 11pm UK time, therefore the result was known when your bet was placed. The Poirier fight didn't actually kick off until about 12.45am UK time, a good hour and half after I placed my bet!!
They are not having any of it and are saying management say the result was known when your bet was placed. This means losing out on over £500, which is a lot for me. Does anyone know whether there is anything I can do here??

I suggest u sign up to sbrforum and log a complaint with them. William Hill are one of their sponsors so they should be able to help. I for one know tht William Hill left quite a few lines open for the undercard as they wer going on

Thanks for your advice. I spoke with senior management at Will Hill and they paid out in the end. They spoke with whoever gives them their results and confirmed that the result was not known at the time my bet was placed. They also gave me a £50 free bet.

Good to hear...I thought it was strange that they'd try and pull a fast one. I got Pierce at +250 on WilliamHill and they still paid out so didn't think they screw you over

It's what they brought him out at. They changed it straight after so i was probably only person on planet to get it as the line came out whilst I was on there looking at soccer plays
