betfair down for 15 sec here

[hgodden]

Dunno about anyone else but it's feeling quite sticky to me, particularly the last race 2.55 Hexham

[to75ne]

seems ok here - not had any problems yet

[hgodden]

Thanks Tony it's not that bad but is the sort of thing we've seen before major trouble has happened in the past so worth being aware of

[to75ne]

soon as you posted i made sure my mode 1 is ok and im logged into betfair etc

API messing up in the last, froze for a while... I'll email them

[jimrobo]

mine froze for about 30 seconds. Frantic minute as I had rather a lot in the market at the time!!

[hgodden]

Me too, strangely in the minute before that it seemed to be streaming information in ok, but when I went to put bets in often it just wouldnt do it! I thought there was something wrong with my mouse! New one to me anyway

[gutuami]

it seems that when the odds are low they have much more small bets to handle per /second. And when a big bet comes in it freezes the markets for a while.

Reports coming in of all football matches suspended

[Euler]

We are currently having problems with our servers and have had to suspend betting on all football markets, an update will follow shortly.

[Euler]

The earlier issues with in-play football betting has now been resolved. We are sorry for any inconvenience caused.
