It was down for a couple of minutes.  Could have cost me a fortune if it hadn't come back and someone could access betting as the case has been during the outages the last couple of weeks.

Eddie,

Be careful. It's always accessible from the API for a little while after the site goes down.

I've never used the API and probably never will.
   What you say is the biggest problem with these outages - That someone still can access the betting while most customers can't.

HJS,

Pretty sure it's ok at the moment. Probably something wrong with your browser.

After the problems with the site last week we are running some tests to make sure we don’t see a repeat of them this weekend.

At 13.00, 17.20 and 17.50 there may be a short interruption to the site but this is part of the planned testing and should last only a matter of a minute or two.

Thank you for your patience and understanding.


thanks for the notice. 6 minutes before it happened. TOTALLY UNACCEPTABLE.

API and lite i guess are working fine, are there live markets at the moment?
By:

When: 10 Feb 11 13:08
At the very least they should start sending out emails to warn us of these 'planned tests'.
