Team of the week promotion. Mansion will be selecting one Premeirship team per week to the the Mansion Team of the Week now until the end of the season

Simply visit the MANSION Sportsbook and place an Asian Handicap bet on the selected Team of the Week. If your bet is not a winner, MANSION will refund your stake, up to GBP 50 (or currency equivalent), within 48 hours.

This week, our Team of the Week is Arsenal. Our Sportsbook has Arsenal getting +0.5 goal start @ odds of 1.85. MANSION will refund all losing bets on this selection, up to GBP 50 (or currency equivalent), on Arsenal’s match on Sunday 9 April.

NOTE that 50 pounds is roughly USD $85

AND THE BET MUST BE MADE IN THE SPORTSBOOK PART

NOT IN THE EXCHANGE.

Hmm. A free weekly wager... That sounds almost desperate. What are the conditions?

[Dark Horse]

Found them. No rollover...

This offer applies to Asian Handicap bets placed on MANSION Sportsbook only and is limited to the team and selection specified.

To qualify for this promotion you must be 18 years of age or over and have agreed to the MANSION terms & conditions.

The promotion is valid from 6th April 2006.

‘MANSION’s Team of the Week’ will be displayed on the MANSION website.

All personal information provided to MANSION must be complete and accurate in all respects and we reserve the right to request additional information in order to satisfy our validation of this information.

Only one refund is allowed for each MANSION Member, residential address, email address, telephone number, debit/credit card or NETeller account number and shared computer. The refund applies exclusively to the first account opened in the event multiple accounts are opened.

All refunds will be placed into Member accounts within 48 hours.

This promotion is intended for recreational members and MANSION may at our sole discretion limit the eligibility of customers to participate in any promotion or bonus offer.

MANSION reserves the right to withdraw or amend this offer at any time without prior notice.

All decisions made by MANSION regarding this promotion shall be deemed final.

Offer is valid for limited time period only.

It says that only one refund is allowed for each member. I'm assuming that this means one refund each week, but it could be explained as one refund total.

It is only one refund per member. If you win your bet on the team of the week, then you can take another shot on the following week's team of the week, and still have that insurance.

But as soon as you have lost one and gotten a refund, you are done for the promotion.

Today's Arsenal game is already gone BTW.

I think its 1 refund of GBP $50 only , so if you place 2 bets = GBP $100 , you only get GBP $50 back

but can someone email to confirm ?

You're right, you would only get the one refund of 50 GBP. That's the max.

I don't think so - I'm 99% sure that you'll be able to have another bash next week despite getting the refund this week.

[magnavox]

I strongly suspect tacomax is right.

[bigboydan]

this is an interesting offer.

Here's my story on that: I was originally repeating what I had just been told on the phone by Mansion CS. She seemed quite firm about what she was saying.

I just called them now and was told that my original info was wrong and you are correct, that you can keep dipping as many weeks as you want, regardless of if you're winning your bets, or losing and getting refunds.

This guy I just spoke to seemed far less sure of himself though. I obviously need to get a good reliable contact there. I'll work on that.

And I'll keep monitoring this promotion - because it is a decent one - and try to firm up these details before the next Team of the Week game.

[tacomax]

When any book has a new promotion like this one (i.e. a pretty oddball one) then you can bet your last dollar that the CS aren't going to be up to speed on it over the first few days.

[Mudcat]

Roger that.

Thanks for the correction.

[natrass]

Hmmm ..... mansion pull out of sponsoring Man United and then two days later have a promotion to back their opponents....

Did this today ... the Arse lost as predicted ... no sign of a refund yet but we'll see during the week.

They seemed to be having a few probs today ... crashing software etc.

[aggie]

that is an interesting angle natrass

Most CS agents aren't up to speed on what year it is or how to spell their own first name.

[Mudcat]

Just to update: this week's Team of the Week is Sunderland who, on the Asian Handicap in the SPORTSBOOK are currently +2, +2.5 -122.

The game is at 2:45 EST today.

So get your no risk bets down IN THE SPORTSBOOK NOT THE EXCHANGE if you are so inclined.

I also did re-confirm that those who bet Arsenal last week and lost but had their bets refunded, are eligible for the same insurance today.

[David]

Thanks for the info Mud. Didn't realize you could get the refund more than once. Did you guys get your refunds from last week?
