Don't think I would fancy carrying on trading - closing out yes, given Betfair recent major outages.

Not worth the risk for me anymore today. Early bath.

Looks like it has settled down again now. But I'm going to use two versions of Bet Angel in different connection modes now for the rest of the session. Just in case.

Not me, I was just looking at that as it's my biggest win of the day, so won't be happy if it gets voided :(

Just read it's a Stewards Enquiry, I was worried BF were messing around because of the API issue, but hopefully not.

Not down, but when I try to load a market nothing pops up, I can't even see the events, someone else?

Same here, cant get in through iBetmate either so looks like site and API problems. Seen a few people reporting it.
I was also getting the Australian Wallet is being created problem whenever I went into My Account.
Surprised its not appearing more on Twitter or that they havent taken the site down.

Now I can't even login using BA. What a brilliant start of a day!

Today is the 31st January and I was really keen on pushing this month total to a certain amount... Looks like it will have to wait...

I haven't seen any problems as yet, maybe it was just a temporary thing?

I've switched to connection mode 1, it's fine there.
Connection mode 0 was causing lots of problems

I have looked into my log files from this morning. Every API request sent from 7:06 to 8:36 GMT had "garbage" response from Betfair. They haven't post even some "formal" message on their forum. But that was just "small hour and a half outage" :) Good old habits!
