Paddy Power . Absolute Bluffers

Anyone know why on PP when you withdraw money sometimes it says your money will be with you in 2 hours while at other times it says 2-5 days 

No idea how social distancing is going to work in a bookies. It’s one place where people get in very close to each other reading the form and not sure how the clientele will appreciate having to stand in a queue as that rarely happens in the bookies.

Would have thought they're one of the industries best suited to close up physical shops. A main street Paddy Power shop is basically a advert these days surely?

No not yet there’s still a certain age group of men who would make up most of their business mid-week say who wouldn’t have any online accounts and even at the weekends lads running from pubs into the bookies next door is still quite popular.

I go to the bookies to do a fiver bet for Soccer Saturday. I don't like the idea of being able to bet on a phone when I'm bored or drunk. It can also cause problems if you want a loan. The bookies are always packed anyway.

You can put a bet on your phone and still have a cigarette. What am I missing here?
