Paddy Power's very own VAR in action.
I went into my local Paddy Power shop for the last time this morning after being a loyal customer for many years. On Monday I was told I had won the football competition to win a £25 free bet. I was delighted with this win as the free bet guaranteed me a profit given that I always back and lay. My name was on the board as the winner by the way. Today I discovered that my name had been removed. I was told by the manager that he had double checked the results and apparently somebody else had won. No apology. Although I did not ask for this, I thought the least they could have done was to perhaps offer me a £10 free bet, or even just a £5 one as consolation and as a goodwill gesture given they had earlier told me I had won. Indeed I could have used the £25 earlier if I had wanted to. I'm very disappointed with Paddy Power over this. As such, that's me finished with them as this unfortunate incident has soured what was previously a good relationship.
