Betfair Down / Betfair site crash

[Melsey]

Be very careful... just froze on me with most of my bank in a lay position...

Called BF to place a back order and was told that they are unable to take telephone bets at the moment.....!

Managed to get out when it unfroze briefly... Proceed with caution......

Going to have a lie down...!

[RideTheLightning]

Ohno, the 3pm jitters.......

[Yantraman]

that was scary - big orders and big exposure on the big race at 3pm then B F froze turned out ok, but feeling lucky

[Euler]

Gee, thanks Betfair, lets bomb the site on the feature race of the day. FFS!

Anyhow, managed to get, somehow, something decent out of Betfair but even more from Betdaq, especially net of commission. What on earth am I paying for on Betfair?

[Euler]

Betfair is very unstable looking at the data from our end. Please be extra careful.

[Melsey]

an adreniline rush when you're bank looks like it's going to take a beating...

[Mr Undercover]

Towchester 1520 worse.

Be very wary if goign in-play.

Hope this isn't build up to a crash

Hope this isn't build up to a crash

TBH, It feels like it is.

[superfrank]

had a decent result today so gonna call it a day.

they should refund all commission on days when there are problems as a goodwill gesture.

[Zenyatta]

Between the mad bomber arbitrary crashing the prices, Ukrainians dropping 'logic bombs' to try to hack into people's Betfair accounts, and Betfair themselves bombing their site at random and helping themselves to 60%, is it all worth it?

[Euler]

goodwill gesture.

That's the best laugh I've had all day!

[Krzysztof]

Looks like it's dead for quite a while. On my end at least.

[SpikeyBob]

API completely gone for me now for at least 2 mins.

[superfrank]

goodwill gesture.

That's the best laugh I've had all day!

yeah I forgot!

maybe the Ghost of Christmas Past will visit BFHQ this year!

[Euler]

I think that would be a good option, the ghost of christmas future wouldn't paint a pretty picture.
