Hollywoodbets on Galatasaray/Juventus

im new here, and a frend suggested that this will be the best place to get a response.
does any1 know why hollywoodbets did not refund or treat any bets placed the above mentioned match as a "scratching" as such?
my point is the match was played on tuesday night, and after 33 minutes and then the match was suspended due to snow.
the match was resumed on wednesday and the remaining 57minutes played, its a completely different scenario now.
i argued this point with my local bookie as i had a bigger bet involved, and eventually they agreed that the match (leg) of my ticket would be treated as a scratching and odds on that leg deducted. So y dint Hollywoodbets do this?

My understanding is that this match was still played within 24 hours after the postponement and as you say the match was suspended and not abandoned

3.2 Soccer

All soccer bets will be settled on the score at fulltime (90 minutes and stoppage time added by the referee, if any). Extra time, golden goal and penalty shootouts will be excluded. Where a bet is struck to “lift the cup” or “to progress” there shall be no betting on a draw as extra time or penalties may be required to decide the outcome.

The only exception to this rule is in relation to friendly matches (which may be scheduled for less than 90 minutes), where all match markets will be settled based on the actual result when the game finishes (excluding any extra-time), irrespective of whether the full 90 minutes is played.

If a scheduled match does not kick-off and a team is declared a winner by a walkover, by the governing association, then such decision shall not be considered a result for betting purposes and all bets on the match shall be void.

All bets will be accepted until kick off time. Any bet placed after kick off time shall be void. That part of a multiple bet on a soccer event placed after kick off time shall be void but all remaining selections which do not include the match in that multiple bet will stand.

Should a match start and be abandoned prior to the completion of fulltime and an official result is declared by the governing association of the match or event within 24 hours of abandonment thereof, all relevant bets will be determined on that result notwithstanding any later changes to the result for any reason or any error in the results save that all bets which are dependent on number of goals scored shall be void.

If a soccer match is officially called off prior to its scheduled completion and an official match result is not declared by the relevant controlling authority within 24 hours of abandonment, bets not determined at the time the match is called off shall be void. This exclusion does not apply to bets already determined.

Bets placed on postponed matches will stand provided the match is played within 24 hours of the original scheduled kick off time and the venue remains the same, failing which those bets shall be void.

In the event that a result of a match is not made available on the internet or other reliable source within 48 hours of the scheduled kick-off, such match shall be made void, provided that an alternate kick-off has not been scheduled within that same 48 hour period. Should a result subsequently be forthcoming it shall be ignored for the purposes of settling bets.

I take it you never backed Galatasary..

Naresh is correct,the 24 hour rule comes into play
If you weren't happy,you should have contacted them before the restart

Thanx naresh and Dave, I guess rules r rules, no Dave I backed btts, the point I made with my local bookie was to restart n play 57mins is nt the same as playing 90mins players had time to rest and fatigue etc wud nt b such big factor, also with Juve needing a point dey could just sit back n defend, n I did contact dem 1st thing on wed morning coz dey totally messed my balance on other winning bets, n I was told dat der systems we're giving problem due 2 the game mentioned and it will be sorted out soon.but anyway thanx for the info guys

That's the difference between your unprofessional local bookies and top class hollywood.
