Confirmation of Wagers
Phone Customers
- In all instances where the customer confirms the readback, even when the clerk has made an error, all wagers read back will be final. It is the customer's responsibility to detect and correct any errors made during the readback.
- In the event the customer does not hear the readback due to technical difficulties, such as a disconnection etc., it remains his responsibility to call Actionbets at 1.888.321.2387 to confirm the wager, or otherwise advise the clerk of his decision. All wagers, which are interrupted in this way during readback, shall be entered exactly as understood by the wagering clerk. In the case of any subsequent discrepancy, the archived record of the transaction will determine the wager type and amount.(Our advice to you, that if you have any doubt of any wager placed, you should confirm the wager immediately by checking your open plays on the Internet and/or contacting a wagering representative. Remember, it's your money and the call is toll-free).
Internet Customers
- All Internet customers must confirm their wager(s) by entering their individual passwords. All wagers made in this manner are final.
- In the event a customer confirms a wager he did not intend to make, he must immediately contact the wagering department at 1.888.321.2387, and the wager either shall be deleted, or treated as final, as deemed appropriate by the Lines Manager.
- Under no circumstances will Actionbets be held responsible for errors made by any Internet customer.
- It remains the customer's sole responsibility to check any pending wager(s) immediately after making a wager to confirm that he actually has confirmed it. If, after placing a wager on the Internet, the customer does not find his wager(s) in the Open Bets file, it means that the customer does not have any valid wager(s). In effect, he has not entered the required password. To rectify any such problem, the customer must re-enter the wager(s) and enter a password. It is mandatory any internet wagering claim must be submitted with the related wager identification number displayed in the open wagers section.
