Calling Flash Harry re high punter turnover

I brought up the issue of high punter turnover being rewarded to management and apparently it is already in place. All of the country's (Phumelela and Gold Circle's) top ACCOUNT punters are hosted at the big events. This process is managed by Phumelela. GC have lost their identity in this matter. However, they fully intend instituting a MVP program once they are operating moe independently.

I have a relation who was getting all these pro-mo specials when his spend was about 10% of mine (He and partner flown to big JHB meetings......whole week-end all-found----some go to Dubai as guests BTW)
and I was amused as I had never been offered a cheap ball-point pen.........lol

Don't want any of their charity as I would hate to feel any obligation to that lot,but was amused at their selection process.

addictions usually have a high turn over. Just look at how many people give up smoking and how many start 50/50 i'd say. Same goes for gambling.

what about the small punter?? ... o well back to Hollywood to take my open bet for today!!!

tipster i tell you what i spend be fore i now spend not a thing by tote. some year ago my turnover is the seven figure a year and i dont get even a kick up the bum.

also let me tell you some thing for years i punt on tote and some good numbers. not one phone call to ask why i no longer punt. tipster it is to late to go check the stable for horse when the gate is open for years the horse is eating some where else

Also imo it is not always the monetary value of the 'incentive' - it's also the 'thought' that counts; I have received 'free' betting money in my account from both Holllywood and WOS - after only joining both a year or so back; after 20 + years with the tote, not even a 'thank you for betting with us' :

I think its a hangover from years of "no choice"
Why do I often feel that Saftote do us a favour by letting us bet with them.

Nice gesture - but I think that's because they know you punt more when you're p*ssed <

Nope but had great pleasure pouring my auld man a few jockeys whips
