    Post NEED INFOS (Please advices)

    Hi all, this is my first post.. first of all sorry for my poor English..
    I wanted to ask and know some information regarding my previous cancelled bet..

    I dont know how to start it, I will try to point out..

    On 3 of December 2012, I placed a soccer bet online at bet365.com.au.. the match already finished in the early morning (2am, 3 December 2012) before but they "bet365" still have the market for that match.. The game was between ITTIHAD KHEMISSET VS. MOULOUDIA OUJDA from Morocco League.. HT 2-0 / FT 2-0.. I was bet on HT/FT and etc.. total amount I bet about 165AUD, and the return is about 20k something.. because I put on multibet with other soccer match which ending with a won result too.. The game should start at 2am (4 December 2012) Sydney Time according to bet365 (in fact the game already finished in the early morning before).. I searched on Google before to make sure that the game was really finished.. the problem was, at 2.12am, which is if the game wasn't finished before mean the game by 2.12 already in-play, they cancelled my bet which said on the email was

    "Hi *********,

    Hi jimmy,

    Yes, bookmakers have the right to cancel bets if there is an error in the odds or timing of events. From the bet365.com.au terms:

    4.8 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), bets will be made void and the stake refunded.
