2-3 years from now the idiots from betfair will feel the real pressure to improve things with their business. Usa and U.E will soon regolate the online gambling, therefore new investors will look ( they already doing it) in to the sport trading business. What goes around comes around. DID BF DOWN effect your health? Keep up your faith, 2-3 years from now you can say goodbye to those can`t appreciate your money and time you put in to tradings.

Betfair have come back this morning to confirm what the issue was: -
Thanks for contacting us.
The problem was caused by an issue with one specific API server. The issue occurred between 14:51 and was resolved at 15:24 following a restart of the server affected.
Please accept our apologies for the inconvenience caused.

Anyone else still having problems?
Over the last month i have wiped out last 4 months profit due to market freezing during last 5 mins up to the off for anything up to 1-2mins; during this time i have upgraded to better computer (thought old one may be unable to cope); changed my modem likewise; changed the settings on BA; blamed Betfair (having read this thread and had problems at the same time as everyone else); thought problem only appeared on Saturday so put it down to traffic ( so blamed local kids on xbox hogging bandwidth) but after double shocker today am not so sure. I previously never had a problem - for me it only seems to have appeared since the cross matching could be wrong but faster BB speed seems my last hope(currently have Virgin 10mb) Anybody else had problems this afternoon? or have any ideas?
Many thanks

I doubt a slow bb connection would have caused the problems you describe, but I found that paying an extra fiver a month with Virgin to upgrade to 20mb made a big difference.

Thanks J; looks like u cld be right; spoke to V and i'm not being subjected to any traffic management so speed seemingly not the issue; they're sending one of their tech's round so we'll see; probably taking my bat and ball home til confident the thing works 100%! thanks again
