...on all exchange markets, for those who didn't catch andy's post in the other thread

Select 'Basic' from the promo page.
Note: By doing so, you'll be opting out of all other promotions, cash races, best odds guaranteed, etc.

Rather snakey marketing to dub what I guess is the least valuable option 'Diamond'

"This promotion is unfortunately not available in your country."

Brilliant stuff. Paying 6.5% base commission compared to, most of, you guys' 5% (PC traders not included, of course), and now not getting this :?

Unfortunate. Why not just access Betfair from a machine located in UK/IRE, or is that against the Ts&Cs?

Without checking, I'm 99.99% that's a T&C violation, as well as a violation in terms of the law.

Better not end up in jail, could make for a tricky trading environment

Surely it's where you are resident rather than where you trade from?

"We're sorry to say that this promotion is not available to you." - I think it's because I recently started PC :/

"1. Who can take part?
You can only take part if you have been invited directly to by Betfair."


Seems clear to me. Nice to see the customary Betfair gobbledygook grammar.

clicked that link, - Not available to me!

I opted in ok for the 2% on Premier League Match odds, which I'm pretty sure is open to anyone.

I opted in yesterday... Note: also got the not available to you message when trying to do it on my phone but fine on web site... Actually it was clicking on the through link from email that caused the problem I think... Try doing it directly on website...

Doesn't appear on my screen and clicking the link on my desktop just shows it's not available to me. Probably because I'm on some some other trial.

Are youtalking about the 2% football comms or the one eightbo posted for all activity?
