    Once they have this in their T&CS (or don't have it in this case) then they're covered IMO and it's a losing bet. Unlucky if everyone else counts DQ as a winner under KO betting

    If they have the worst prices, wouldn't it make sense to go elsewhere?

    If DISQ is not listed as a separate betting option then you would have a case for "can't win, can't lose" argument

    Have you checked their rules? On their website it says:
    For betting purpose, KO/TKO option also includes disqualification (DSQ)

    So this bet should be paid out as a winner

    Or maybe they have added this in since this customer complained

    The customer support staff don't know what is going on for the most part but there is the odd good one. Keep trying.

    Wouldn't be the 1st time that's happened.

    Bookmakers rules differ slightly from firm to firm depending on the sport and the market. Powers have always treated disq and ko as different. You have no case.

    PP rules.
    Bet was with PP not different bookie :confused:.

    Sorry I'm thinking of a decision not disqualification.
