Customers are reminded to be vigilant about live broadcasts as they might experience delays. This could influence in-play betting decisions.

In circumstances where markets fail to suspend at the stipulated 'off' time, subsequent bets may be invalidated.

By adhering to these guidelines, both Sky247 and its users can foster a transparent and trustworthy environment, enabling seamless and enjoyable betting experiences.
