Betfair Down / Betfair site crash

[Johnedale]

So no one can lay yet lay bets still arriving in the market, wonder who that is

Could it just be cross matching making lay bets out of back money??

Just tried placing lay bet using bf app for iPhone but won't go through there either

Only took Betfair 20 minutes on Twitter to acknowledge they have a problem

I’m getting it too, can’t do anything on BetAngel, main site or mobile .

Can place backs, but no lays on the api. Says due to betfair s business rules .

I managed to hedge ("Cash Out") a position using the the Exchange app (android version).

wee nikki sturgeon is gonna love this:
The following bet(s) could not be placed: Most likely this is due to you being located in a country where we currently can't offer our services. If you have questions please contact our Helpdesk at [email protected].
I'm up in Scotland.

I didn't get any error that I could see but I couldn't green out on BA or on the exchange website, fortunately I am training and have it all on Video... Will see what support say when they finally answer Imagine they have a few people on hold right now

Curiously it seems to only be affecting horse racing markets.

I overslept this one, hope nobody got burned too hard.

[PeterLe]

Think we are back

[GreyTrader]

Chat no help either, got this half an hour ago but nothing since...

at 13:36, Jan 21:

Shall quit for the day, a whole £1.00 up!

Agree, normality on 14:10

[xtrader16]

I'd still be careful for next 60 minutes. It could go again.

[brimson25]

Grimly amused that I lost on a horse called Steady the Ship.

Betfair obviously don't own it.
