It's about time Betfair start voiding all markets affected by outages but won't hold my breath

That 97th minute winner from Arsenal, kinda saved me there.

Will be interesting to see how positions settle. I was trading the Arsenal match and was exposed on the draw. Couldn’t trade out at 0:2 but the late Arsenal win might just have saved me! Madness this. I would have thrown some profits on Arsenal at 0:2 but I’ll be happy if I don’t get clobbered.

Surely the must allow, refunds for a non operational Exchange system ? Otherwise I lost a chunk on Burnley game. :(

Totally agree. It’s the only fair way to do it IMHO.

Nope. Betfair don't guarantee cash out being available so positions you opened run as a straight bet. When it goes down all un-matched bets are cancelled.

I'll be £300 down on Chelsea Leeds when it settles. Like many others there's nothing I can do other than take it on the chin. Another goal I'd of been a winner hey ho.
