Taking Betfred to the Small Claims

[friendlyfire]

Hi!

I need to sue Betfred Sportsbook.

They have told me that I need to take on their Sportsbook company named Petfre but that company is based in Gibraltar.

Does anyone know if I can sue their UK address? It is here...

http://www.betfred.com/contact

Birchwood Shopping Centre, The Spectrum, 56-58 Benson Rd, Birchwood, Warrington WA3 7PQ, UK

Otherwise, do I use the EU small claims cross border procedure? Or ask the small claism in Gibraltar to have a hearing without me?

Thanks!

FF

It might help if you explain what the problem is - it might depend who you need to approach

They have been placing the wrong bets because their site does not update the betting slips properly when a customer is navigating their website.

I don’t believe you’d get anywhere suing the UK company (unless it’s for such a small amount they pay it because it’s cheaper than defending). Their licence and therefore the operator is in Gibraltar. The UK operator will say they are merely an administrative division.

best bet is to complain to Gambling commission of Gibraltar

What I will say though is financial websites including ones for gambling usually have independent auditors like PWC or Deloitte who certify that the website was fully functional that day and it would be very difficult to claim something was wrong technically.
