Are there any timing clues in your log? Perhaps Betfair were late putting the match into in-play?
Don't have my log now, but it showed it was accepted.jamesedwards wrote: ↑Wed Jul 02, 2025 3:30 pmAre there any timing clues in your log? Perhaps Betfair were late putting the match into in-play?

If the match starts but Betfair haven't put the market into play then they may go back and void any bets matched between the actual start time and in-play time.kenfrost wrote: ↑Wed Jul 02, 2025 3:35 pmDon't have my log now, but it showed it was accepted.jamesedwards wrote: ↑Wed Jul 02, 2025 3:30 pmAre there any timing clues in your log?

They certainly do this with other sports so would be surprised if they didn't also do it with tennis.
If you can be bothered to get involved with their live chat they will probably be able to tell you why your bet was voided.
thanks, given it was just a test bot for £1 I will accept it as one of life's mysteries rather than go into chat with themjamesedwards wrote: ↑Wed Jul 02, 2025 3:41 pmIf the match starts but Betfair haven't put the market into play then they may go back and void any bets matched between the actual start time and in-play time.kenfrost wrote: ↑Wed Jul 02, 2025 3:35 pmDon't have my log now, but it showed it was accepted.jamesedwards wrote: ↑Wed Jul 02, 2025 3:30 pmAre there any timing clues in your log?
