Post here any incidences of wrong scores, scores that were updating regularly but suddenly stopped and scores that are attributed to the wrong team.


Today the Netherlands vs West Indies match showed Netherlands as having scored 309/6 and WI were supposedly chasing, whereas Cricinfo showed that it was the Dutch who were chasing a West Indies score of 309/6.  I saw another of these swapped score errors a week or two ago and find it unbelievably slack on BetFair's part, irrespective of any disclaimer.

I once had several bets of a game, probably BPL but certainly some Micky mouse T20 effort before discovering the scores were reversed. I think I managed to emerge with a win though.

The Scotland v U.A.E and Nepal v P.N.G currently have the wrong scores. Absolute joke.

Afghanistan and West Indies have the scores the wrong way round. 4 matches on atm and 3 of them have the wrong scores.

Afghan vs WI currently showing Afghan 158/5 after 40.3 overs of the first innings (which as whizz points out is the wrong way around)- on CricInfo we are 36 overs into the chasing innings and the scores are WI 197/8 and Afghan are chasing at 132/4.

I really can't see how BF benefit by neglecting to give accurate scores, nor why it would cost them so much to provide them.

Today Nepal vs Netherlands has BF showing Nepal 189/9 and Netherlands chasing at 18/1 after 17.1 overs - when I last ooked it was trading at 1.01 Netherlands

In fact it is Nepal chasing 189/9 at 127/9 after 38 overs.

After a site outage and a presumed resetting of everything, they've still managed to put Scotland vs West Indies up with the scores the wrong way round.

So, bearing in mind that we may not be spotting and logging them all here, it looks like this has become a daily occurrence often involving more than one match.

BF Chat Person: Hello welcome to Betfair you are chatting with *******. How can I help?

BF Customer : Exchange market, Cricket, West Indies vs Scotland - once again the scores for a one-day or T20 match are the wrong way round - this keeps happening lately (over several weeks so nothing to do with today's earlier outage). What the hell is going on?

BF Chat Person: One moment please.
BF Chat Person: Do you have a bet ID sir please?

BF Customer: imitates shooting himself in the head...............

This happens so often with C/s. It dosen't matter whether ones had a bet on the market or not if there is an error it NEEDS CHANGING ! Had this so many times with BF CS and seems embedded in their culture not to be able to understand this ??
