Who are "the traders"?  They sound like a bunch of tea tasters to me.  They need to get hold of the software person who messed up last week and get him/her to sort it out.
If anyone at Betfair is having difficulty understanding the issue, they should read this thread in which everything is explained perfectly.
I think the problem is employing people who have little experience of gambling themselves and consequently will have difficulty understanding the exchange concept.  I feel that I could do a better job myself as team leader at Betfair Towers, as I know what the customers are talking about and what they need.  A bit like a poacher turned gamekeeper.  But I have a chequered work history and I can't see anyone giving me a job now, especially at my age.Sad

Agree with yer Marksman majority of them do not understand the"game". Its like yer speaking a foreign language to them.

Anyway ante post looks a bit healthier.FINALLY.

Thanx for your help and raising the issue in 1st place.

Jimnast, I wrote the python script primarily for myself, just to find out where I stood.  But I thought I would make it available in case someone wanted to use it.
So lets have a look..Wow, it really is back to normal... But it is a disgrace how long it took.

You look like a Linux user, Mark :)

The page you suggest (My bets) says I have no matches in the time period. I think the sheer volume
of £1 bets I'm laying must have broken their server.

Well spotted Pete, I am on Linux.  The give away must have been the path to the csv file!
Have you pressed the "Matched" tab and set the correct date range?  Because I have just done it again and it still works.

"Open" tab must be highlighted too.

Yeah, I think it might work next Saturday when a few bets have been settled. Thanks anyway.

Ubuntu here. I've been in love with Linux for years although they insist on a Mac at work
and I can just about live with that. A lot of my work is in the shell anyway.
