out that 4 of my last ten logins have been done from a UK ip-address and I'm not based in UK.
Can it be related to the upgrades ? The ip-address is 10.10.10.196 and 10.10.10.200

I would appreciate it if someone else could check theirs ?

Got six different IPs showing in My Security, but all were for log-ins that match the times that I have logged in recently, so I'm not suspicious. They all either begin 86. or 217.

Is any part of the IP address a date stamp?

OK , thanks it's probably Betfair then and related to the upgrades. Morrigan could you please email the Betfair security team and ask what it is ? I would do it myself , but my laptop chrased this weekend and I'm not up and going on the mail programme on the new computer yet.

I've got the same issue too and will send them an e mail for an explanation.

iirc 10.10.10.* is reserved, and will be related to your LAN.
Report Eddie the eagle • December 2, 2009 5:31 PM GMT
How can it be related to my LAN when it says it's from UK and I'm not there ?

It could be Betfair's lan though , but I would really like to know why someone from Betfair need to log into my account 4 times during the last week ?
I check this security login thing at least once a week and can't say I've seen this before.

If you want to check your current IP address (which may change between logins), open a command window and enter "ipconfig". You IP address will be displayed.
Report ebasson61 • December 2, 2009 8:09 PM GMT
Just checked mine and it matches my current IP.

You are on BTopenworld and the 86,217 are the IP ranges of BT

Got no reply to the e mail i sent on Wednesday. It's obviously not important if strange ip adresses appear in your security log and beneath Betfair to offer a response.
Report man of many moods • December 4, 2009 6:44 AM GMT
Happened to me soon after they started displaying them. I phoned them up - can't remember the explanation but they basically said don't worry about it.

So what exactly is the point of it then? I haven't bothered checking it since.

Nothing to worry about. Happened to me, got full explanation which I have now forgotton though.. :)
Report Eddie the eagle • December 4, 2009 8:57 AM GMT
ewood , it's understandable beacuse of the weekly Premium Charge income office party on Wednesday. They will need a few days to recover from that...
