Noticed earlier that it's only £2 to get pics , have heard talk of trialling a new commission structure. With smarkets and betdaq unquestionably growing - are betfair finally getting the message?

I hope so, about time they faced a bit of competition.

BF PP share price gone down 18% in the last month

Things must be getting desperate over there

Good moves and signs in any case, that BF might finally be realising they need to actually do something to keep at the top of the industry.

Betdaq recently started TV adverts I notice also.

That's because they bought back £200 million worth of shares. Their share price is still above the 52 week average.

Talking of pics I tend to watch racing on betfair mobile whilst out and about. I've noticed recently that the quality of the betfair streaming service is a lot poorer. It takes several attempts to connect even with full signal bars on 4g. I often get a slow spinning black circle when trying to connect.

I would expect to get a free access provided that I generate a log o commission for them everyday, and not this childish scheme of two pounds which at times is annoying

Imagine if the US hadn't announced they were going to change their gambling laws, they'd be down another 20%
