Phumelela Bans Sporting Post From TABs

7 years 11 months ago

Sporting Post’s distribution company Racing Distribution has been advised by Phumelela that its publications will no longer be sold in TAB outlets.

The ban affects Sporting Post, as well as the Soccer Betting News newspaper and Winning Form.

The reason given is that it is a conflict of interest for TAB to have publications on site which promote Hollywoodbets.

Sporting Post apologizes to affected readers and advertisers for this unfortunate decision.

How do Phumelela then explain the presence of WSB on Tellytrack?

WSB promote and offer the open bet. No conflict of interest there, or does that conflict get nullified if monies are paid for advertising?

A second thought. If a punter buys a racing publication in the tote, where do these arseholes think that the punter is going to take a bet???? :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

Hypocritical much I would conclude.

Allegedly

They just lost a few more rands
When i go into a tote to buy the S/Post, i always place a few bets and sometimes deposit into my account.


It's been 2 years since i stopped using Betting World
And now they've just screwed my TELEBET ACC

I now have absolutely no reason at all to visit their premises
How stupid can you be?

As Hollywood forges ahead with great service and products, the rest will become increasingly grumpier.

Hollywoods greatest asset, according to me, are the people at the helm. They have vision and a clear understanding of what is needed out there and are just streaking further and further away from the pack.

On a recent visit to a tiny little shop in Durban to buy hollywood vouchers I was amazed to learn from the owner that he sells up to a 150k Hollywood vouchers in 1 day !!!

Now if theres a company I wish that I could buy shares of, it would have to be Hollywood!!!

I firmly believe that the Management team that took this decision need to be applauded.

Betting turnover is down yet they are willing to turn customers away and remove services, i think it's a stroke of genius.
