(b) Where we have made a 'palpable error'. A palpable error occurs where:

(i) In relation to bets placed prior to an event taking place, the prices/terms offered are materially different from those available in the general market; or

(ii) In relation to any event, the price/terms offered at the time the bet is placed are clearly incorrect given the probability of the event occurring;

(c) Where we have continued to accept bets on a market which should have been suspended, including where the relevant event is in progress (except where 'in-running' bets are accepted) or had already finished (sometimes referred to as 'late bets');

(d) Where an error has been made as a result of a Prohibited Practice under paragraph 9;

(e) Where we should not have accepted, or have the right to cancel or re-settle, a bet pursuant to the Betting Rules (for example due to 'Related Contingencies');

(f) Where an error is made by us as to the amount of winnings/returns that are paid to you, including as a result of a manual or computer input error; or

(g) Where an error has been made by us as to the amount of free bets and/or bonuses that are credited to Your Account,

any such circumstances being referred to as an "Error".

12.3. In the event of an Error, we reserve the right to:

(a) Correct any Error made on a bet placed and re-settle the same at the correct price or terms which were available or should have been available through us (absent the publishing error) at the time that the bet was placed and the bet will be deemed to have taken place on the terms which were usual for that bet; or

(b) Where it is not reasonably practicable to correct and re-settle under 12.3(a) above, to declare the bet void and return your stake into Your Account; or

(c) In circumstances where the Error has resulted from a Prohibited Practice, to take the steps set out in paragraph 9.4.
