They got back to me on Twitter when I asked:

@ Leonthefixer Andy Fuller

@Betfair why does it take u 40mins 2 tweet this? I & many others tweeted about it 40 mins b4 u!? So much 4 keeping customers better informed

They said:

@Leonthefixer we have to corroborate that there are issues & get status report from the tech teams so sorry for the delay in informing you

:lol:

They never seem to learn - why they don't look to benchmark their coms. against a company that is good at it is beyond me! Seems to me that they see criticism as a personal attack and shut up shop.

*mouth drops open*

That's like saying you need a meterologist to tell you if it's raining outside!

It was a disaster on the Cambridgeshire for me, I couldn't get out of my position.

Worst ever loss unfortunately. It didn't even resolve the SP bet which was a safety measure.
