No it's not just you, it's been like this since yesterday for me. Others are having the same problem. It's been mentioned in the Site feedback forum but no response from Betfair. Maybe there telling us to quit.

If Tesco's tills broke and they couldn't be bothered fixing it you'd think they'd gone MENTAL, as they'd be fixing it with top priority with bells on that's what.

At BF however, where deposit is in effect the till that funds their business, it's apparently perfectly normal to just ignore the problem? *shakes head*

Betfair have turned into the worse run company in the world imo.

Unbelievable, so they've **STILL** not fixed it??? *Shakes head more vigorously and tuts loudly*

If they can't be bothered fixing this no brainer what hope is there for the oodles of complaints about their new site to be taken seriously?!

just checked mine- it was "internal error" all yesterday, and it's the same today (sunday). Utter shower.

internal error 500 is the server side, so a betfair problem. Might be related to browser but its betfairs issue not their customers
Report Just Checking April 28, 2013 12:38 PM BST
If it's a server error then surely they'd have system in place for someone to be alerted that problems are occuring their side??

Never mind that surely they'll have received calls and emails given the # of people on the forum complaining who will be a small fraction of the total suffering the issue?

I just can NOT get my head round the way this company is run these days!
Report brendanuk1 April 28, 2013 12:40 PM BST
Yes they will be aware of the issue. Has there been no announcement?
Report Mr.Angry April 28, 2013 12:46 PM BST
Very worrying times.  The responsible developers have clearly gone on leave / away for the weekend, and are unwilling to come back.

You can imagine the phone call now

Director: "Our deposit system is down, get back to help"
Developer: "I wanred you about this potential issue months ago, but you ignored me."
Director: "But we can't take any money!"
Developer: "You shouldn't have f*cking sacked everyone then." Click.

Might be third part issue as its payments, but still should be some announcement
Report JML April 28, 2013 1:01 PM BST
My deposit page is still working fine.
Report unclepuncle April 28, 2013 2:29 PM BST
Still not working for me so I phoned up helpdesk.

They said it was a known issue and the problem was at their end, and the techincal dept was looking into it.

Strange how most people seem unaffected?
Report brendanuk1 April 28, 2013 2:39 PM BST
you have to say what payment method you are using etc. Different ones probably work and yours doesnt
Report unclepuncle April 28, 2013 5:40 PM BST
I only use my (Natwest) bank visa debit card which I would have assumed (maybe wrongly) is the most common means of depositing, certainly for anyone in the UK.
Report Clueless1 April 28, 2013 8:42 PM BST
so when can i deposit??
Report Just Checking April 28, 2013 8:59 PM BST
I would've thought they'd have lots of different suppliers for different types of cards and do all that stuff themselves, they'd use a 3rd party service from e.g. a bank to do card payment so .. maybe, benefit of the doubt, it's a 3rd party to blame and out of BF's hands. Maybe MischiefDevil

Is it at the "pay using these details" stage it goes pete tong?
Report redmal April 28, 2013 9:08 PM BST
Re: Just Checking.

No it's not at the "pay using these details" stage it goes wrong. When you press the deposit button at the top of the page by yhe login or In "my account" you do not go the deposit page but a to a page which says

Internal error

An internal server error prevented the page you requested from loading correctly. Please try loading the page again after some time.

hope that helps

There also seems to be a problem now with withdrawing by bank transfer, i'm getting some sort code error message yet it's definitely correct and has been used previously.

Can't put money in, can't take money out :-~
