Looks like they have wiped a lot of unmatched bet positions. The Open market has been plunged into chaos at the moment.

LinusP once posted a chart which I think was scraped from the times/days multiple posts hit this thread, I'm sure I've got a screenshot of it somewhere

Thanks Dallas i was unclear i meant the start and finish time of today's outage.
It's ok now as Betfair have email back ( surprisingly quick) with the times 11.01-11.12. This maybe of help for others

Hmm, interesting - heartbeat feature didn't work this time. Reminds that you shouldn't rely on it alone.

10:55 was the first time I became aware of it from a timestamped discord chat, I checked API page at 10:57 which showed the initial API outages, 11:03 I checked the API page again and was showing red all over. About 11:11 was when all back.

Judging by my logs it's 10:59-11:09:57.

I saw some problems in the timescales same as you boys but wanted to query with Betfair what time they are going to use to cancel any bets

Not an outage right now but planned maintenance 6:05am-7:05am GMT so will affect Australian users and anyone who was planning on overnight automation or the early Kazakh challengers in the tennis

Anyone else being unable to login to Betangel? I can login to website and the Betangels I already have running works fine but I get this message when trying to open a new one

"Bet Angel has been unable to connect to Betfair using the supplied user name and password. An exception occured while logging into Betfair."

Oddly I get the same message even if I remove some chartacters from my User name. I have a Swedish account if it might be some regional problem..

No issue for me in the UK.
