3.1 If we incur any charge-backs, reversals or other charges in respect of your account, we reserve the right to charge you for the relevant amounts incurred.

1.1 Metabet reserves the right to decline all, or part, of any bet/wager/challenge requested at its sole and absolute discretion. All bets/wagers are placed at your own risk and discretion.
1.2 We only accept bets/wagers made online (including via mobile device, applications on a mobile device) or by telephone. Bets/wagers are not accepted in any other form (post, email, fax, etc.) and where received will be invalid and void – win or lose.
1.3 It is the responsibility of the customer to ensure details of their bets/wagers/challenges are correct. Once bets/wagers have been placed they may not be cancelled by the customer. Metabet reserves the right to cancel any bet/wager/challenge at any time.

2.1 Bets/wagers/challenges will not be valid if there are insufficient funds in your account.
2.2 A bet/wager/challenge that you request will only be valid once accepted by Metabet’s servers. Each valid bet/wager/challenge will receive a unique transaction code. We shall not be liable for the settlement of any bets/wagers which are not issued with a unique transaction code. If you are unsure about the validity of a bet/wager/challenge, please check your account history, or Contact Us.
2.4 Notwithstanding the above, if bets/wagers/challenges are placed via a credit or debit card they are not valid until we have received payment in full. The bet/wager/challenge will be automatically void if we have not received the payment prior to the relevant event commencing.
2.5 Should a dispute arise, you and Metabet agree that the Metabet transaction log database will be the ultimate authority in such matters.

3.3 Metabet reserves the right to withhold payment and to declare bets on an event void if we have evidence that the following has occurred: (i) the integrity of the event has been called into question; (ii) the price(s) or pool has been manipulated; or (iii) match rigging has taken place. Evidence of the above may be based on the size, volume or pattern of bets placed with Metabet across any or all of our betting channels. A decision given by the relevant governing body of the sport in question (if any) will be conclusive. If any customer owes any money to Metabet for any reason, we have the right to take that into account before making any payments to that customer.
3.4 Where there is evidence of a series of bets each containing the same selection(s) having been placed by or for the same individual or syndicate of individuals, Metabet reserves the right to make bets void or withhold payment of returns pending the outcome of any subsequent investigation.
3.5 For events where there is no official ‘off’ declared, the advertised start time of the event will be deemed the ‘off’. If for any reason a bet is inadvertently accepted after an event or match has commenced (other than live In-Play betting clearly indicated on the Website / Mobile App), bets will stand providing the final outcome is not known, and that no participant/team has gained any material advantage (e.g. a score, sending off for the other team, etc) at the time the bet was placed. If the outcome of an event/market is known Metabet reserves the right to void the bet, win or lose. Disputes over times bets are placed will be settled using the transaction log. All times stated on the Website / Mobile App and/or referred to by Metabet staff relate to UK Time unless stated otherwise.
3.6 In-Play betting – where we have reason to believe that a bet is placed after the outcome of an event is known, or after the selected participant or team has gained a material advantage (e.g. a score, sending off for the other team etc) we reserve the right to void the bet, win or lose.
3.7 If for any reason we are unable to validate the outcome of a particular market (e.g. due to loss of live pictures), all bets will be void, unless settlement of bets is already determined.
3.8 Where a customer gives ambiguous instructions, Metabet reserves the right to split the amount of monies staked between the potential outcomes. Where this is impractical we reserve the right to void the whole of that bet. In any event, the decision of Metabet is final.
