I"ve seen hundreds and hundreds of competitions giving away ipads since they were launched.
I"ve also seen that ipad sales are well below Apple"s initial expectations.
It makes me wonder if the only people who"ve bought any are the companies who"ve been giving them away :D

Cheers Ian! You reminded me to give it a go over the holiday!

No criticism - genuine suggestion to make things better.
I"m a fan of the "players club" section on Betfair but can I suggest it has a section or a tab which displays the promos you"ve entered/opted in for and ideally though I accept not proportionate in all instances your progress in them.
That would require a tech fix - as an interim - e-mail confirmation on entry and then completion.
Just a thought...

Absolutely ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++1
Really annoys me. I often forget which promos I"ve signed up for. I keep getting free bets in my account, but absolutely no idea if they are the right ones or not.
-
"Think" I"ve clocked up 10. They"d better count the HU SNGs.
-
Completed my 10 sngs today. Sure did make a profit.
So should get a ticket on Jan 3rd, then we need to use it to enter the tourney that"s on the 5th, yes?
-
Tickets have now been issued for this tourney. Make sure you"ve got yours if you think you qualified, and don"t forget to register.
Let"s see how many iPads we can get into APATers hands on Wednesday.
Good Luck.
-
I"ve tried to register for this, but am being told that i dont have a ticket. I played the 5 consecutive days gaining 50 points per day....

Drop a line to support confirming the days you played, and they should sort you out.
You won"t be the only one as there is always some confusion with the timing of when points are added to accounts.
-
Will do. I did it the last 5 days of December (last minute as usual), but it only gets registered the following day.
-
Played around 15 SnGs but no ticket has been issued yet. Have emailed support ... will keep ya posted.
