<\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\nAn unsettled bet in bet365 means that the bet has not been settled or paid out. After a game is finished, the result will take time to reflect across the system, plus the time for security checks, which creates a delay. You need to wait until it becomes “settled”, that’s when your balance is changed.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\nAn example:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Let\u2019s say you are betting on a Hockey game still ongoing. You\u2019re betting on the Toronto Maple Leafs vs. Montreal Canadiens<\/em> game. The game is currently ongoing. So your bet is considered “unsettled” by Bet365 until the game ends and we have a clear winner. <\/p>\n\n\n\nWhen you place a bet, your Bet365 account is debited with the amount of the bet. If your bet wins, your Bet365 account is credited with the winnings. If your bet loses, the stake is forfeit. A bet is only settled once the result is known and Bet365 has declared the mark as “settled”.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/span>What happens if a game is over and your Bet is still unsettled?<\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\nThis can be up to a few hours after an event has taken place. In some cases, Bet365 may make an early payout on a bet if they feel that the result of the event is no longer in doubt. For example, if a team is led by a large margin late in a football match, Bet365 may declare the market as settled and pay out on bets placed on that team to win. However, this is at Bet365’s discretion and they are not obliged to do so.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
There are also some cases where the game is completed with a clear winner but your bet is still displayed as “unsettled”. Don’t panic, as long as you don’t violate their policy, it’s completely normal that the result of the match may take a little longer to be processed. You just need to wait until the result is absolutely final.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
