Yip, API and web site giving errors placing bets.
Report Eddie the eagle • November 26, 2011 1:32 PM GMT
No problems here...... Yet !
Report Templeton Peck • November 26, 2011 1:33 PM GMT
Yep, getting an error message saying I need to refresh page. Refreshing, reloading, etc does not solve problem.

Standard platform on Chrome.
Report Templeton Peck • November 26, 2011 1:34 PM GMT
Message is:

We are sorry but an application error has occured. This may be due to connection problem. Please 'refresh' or 'reload' the page to rectify the problem.

Same problem here now.

It's hit and miss, it's not viewing the site, it's betting.

Web site, randomly working and failing. API full of errors.

Working fine now.  Little confidence we won't have a full-blown crash...

Yip it's better again. A bit of a worry, past experience of how saturday failures develop considered.

I blame Gordon - the site does not appear to have been trying since they signed him.
Report Just Checking • November 26, 2011 2:03 PM GMT
There's a post about it on service forum now.

Unless I'm imagining things well and truly gone this time?
Report gus • November 26, 2011 3:23 PM GMT
mine indicates it's refreshing the market, but the prices aren't changing ... perhaps everyone's died Sad
Report Just Checking • November 26, 2011 3:26 PM GMT
They said they'd found the earlier problem. Two problems in one day??
Report modk • November 26, 2011 3:27 PM GMT
No idea if my bets are taken or what.

Just got back in going to exit my positions. When this happens on saturdays its usuaully messed up for hours.

When I said this:

I think my fears have proven correct :(

Another classic Saturday "shudder, creak, creak, creak" and it all comes crashing down.

notice how quick they were to say it was fixed. gone quiet now, though.

Report modk • November 26, 2011 3:49 PM GMT
hen they've these problems in the past on saturdays, the site tends to remain unstable for the rest of the afternoon.

If you have large exposure you want to be able to manourvre, I'd recommend getting out at the next opportunity.

If betfair owned argos everyone would have to print out their own catalogue and these would only be printable on an argos branch printer.
Report Just Checking • November 26, 2011 4:00 PM GMT
I'm wondering if the earlier BF post saying "now resolved" meant they'd found and solved an actual problem, or the symptoms had just went away for a bit.

This is where the "remains unstable" bit comes into play

It's hit and miss, I wasn't able to cancel bets and could see them gettng matched. Just managed to cancel them, not risking it, it's probably about to go belly up AGAIN.

Api just died again?

JC,

Yes, it's been awful here for the last half hour or so.
Report Just Checking • November 29, 2011 8:47 PM GMT
I'm back on again, it's cleared itself (it's functioning anyway). Thought it was just me, but if you're also seeing something, maybe not.
