awful awful awful.......screen jumping allover when betting inrunning.......what a firkin mess

every market i go to it keeps going to 13.50 Vichy, haha

every market i go to it keeps going to 13.50 Vichy, haha

can i get back to the old one ?

Only if you know Doctor WHO

This is fcking hellish. It is quicker than it was on Wednesday but hellish.

The betslip seems totally out of sync.

Turn off the fill or kill on Gruss and put in a bet that won't be matched. If you have 'open bets' up in the website it won't appear for maybe 5 seconds. During a race , constantly clicking on 'open bets' to get that up. Once you have bets in the system that should take priority. It's a mess. I'm regretting getting that crate of beer the other day as it's taking alot of willpower not to get stuck into it.

On the plus side I am quite sure I can use bet angel to do what I want.

Appalling site. Incredible stupidity forcing this shti upon us.

It's absolute crap , jumping around , awful colours , unnesesary timeform crap , to many unnesersary markets a huge disaster .

bets not showing up here....dreadful just dreadful

just unticked the timeform crap so thats gone , anyone know how to make the runners and there boxes bigger ?

This new site really is poor,so much unnecessary stuff especially Timeform.Get rid of it, larger clearer numerals in its place would be good!  Colours far too vivid. At least we should have the choice to use the "old site" which was "punter friendly"!

It must be concerning them that many of their day to day exchange players, like myself, have gone over to the purple site.

Still doing multiples on here but that is it. **** must be rubbing their hands in glee.

"The other exchange"

Why have they stopped access to the old site ?

^^

to force people on to there 'new site' that has more features , markets , bla bla , but is in fact one of their biggest mistakes ever ....

liquid ditty will take another drop......for sure

1st time on new site and its carp, why dont they take this help and support rubbish off the bottom of the card.

Terrible
Worst beeting sire out there
Apeals to the muppets only

The liqudity on "the daq" is absolutely dismal,tbh.

Only been on the new site one day and it's given me "ARC EYE"

ARC EYE THE NEW  site

refresh rate is sooooooooooooo slow

Dreadful site, absolutely ghastly. Have just opened an account at the purple place.

just posted this as a reply on another thread ... GL

I use firefox & it's working.

Tried to post link a few days ago and moderators stopped the post.

Here it is in code ... (I think it'll get through as all IT are now working hard on clock change at the end of October ... going back 1 hour if IT are reading this) ...

the letters h t t p then a colon then a forward slash and then another forward slash s p o r t s then a full stop then b e t f a i r then another full stop then c o m then a forward slash then a question mark then o p t o u t then an equals sign and then t r u e

No spaces obviously ... ooohh I like subterfuge, maybe I can be the next James Bond.

new site was doing my head in would not let me comment on forum so went on to firefox and the old site was still up and working

sorry should have said to get on old site!

nowt wrong with the new site, can't see wtf the problem is, could be an I.Q issue.

Very slow and laborious website has now taken the enjoyment out of betting on Betfair. I will not be using Betfair after today.

the captains been on the sherry

they've just posted this, seems a load of b*ll*cks to me but might help

"Could be an IQ issue"

This coming from someone who supports Stoke.

Old site 50% faster than above.     

You need some new material pikey.

Chrome faster? Really? My Chrome browser is shockingly slow.

cheers mem..its like being in heaven

Is this really fourteen years of website evolution?

I started using the new version of firefox last night, it couldn't be any faster.

Thank you, mememe. Back to normality for the time being.

try editing bets inrunning christy.......its dreadful

'Cancel all unmatched' now at bottom of betslip rather than top, which means it is further away from bets you are managing in play - therefore more tricky for no reason. Fcking infuriating.

its gonna take a long time to get used to such an inferior product

So - it's all OUR Fault, then.  -

- and what happens when you want to use the Sites that THOSE, "Add-Ons," and, "Plugins," NEED?

Christy just likes to be odd one out. Asshloe

I'm back on old site!

Well I did the honourable thing and opened an account with the other lot earlier. Placed a bet which remarkably won but I have to say I don't think much of that site either. Maybe it's because I'm just not familiar with it but the range of markets seems poor. Very depressing all round I'm afraid.

I've been trying to give the new site a fair crack of the whip, but I can feel BP dropping when I go back to
the old one.

Is it possible to change the garish colours? That would help a bit.

Old site had it just right. Meddling has created a monster. The Purple lot don't really offer enough for me though.

sh1te ere.................is it because my laptop...........is ancient

Is it all yellow and bright pink and flashing and does it take ages to load a market when you click the link? It's not
your laptop, that's just how it is for the rest of us.

Having a successful product and then changing it to something no one actually wants is stupid beyond belief, imo...

crap this new site ..and whos the person that trys to get on at 980 for £15 on all races

refresh does not work everytime i click it

£15 @980 is a trap betting piece of **** - Betfair luuuurve those sort of lowlife parasites, imo...

You can still use the old site but you need to do colons and slashes and all sorts. Someone posted how to do it earlier.

I tried about 20 times and eventually on the 21st it worked.

All the spaces have to go, so take care

try to put a place bet on switches to timeform

The new site is exactly what happens when mediocre middle management types have too much time on their hands, imo...

Thanks pete works 4 me

absolutely gutted they have deleted the old site, the ols site was the best to use easy fast much better than the new site, may go back to ****

Read the posts above harrytool if you want to continue using the old site.

old site still chugging along nicely here

Thanks for info back on old site meantime.

Just managed to get back on old site using info from this thread, Thank God for that, thanks guys.

can someone put a link up please to get on old site,cheers

hurts my eyes, call me doctor.

Has anyone else using the old site lost the horses number on the left?

yes,no numbers

and you can't view order by matched date bets on new site

book - can u PM me with a link to the old site. Cheers

dont have one mate,i need a link as well

sign in
click horse racing tab
click on multiples under the list of countries to the left

old site appears
navigate from there

The new site - despite BF telling us is a much better "experience" - is nowhere near as good, nor as intuitive.

THERE'S TOO MUCH GOING ON!!!!!!

Still it'll make me bet less. So, probably a good thing in that respect.

When I click on a horse race, where is my balance, so I can see how much I've got to bet with?

Exchange+ Is Coming we listen, we listen, etc etc 'were going to'... 'we're going to'... you plonkers BF, you're the worst poss.recidivists

I DO NOT WANT CASH OUT ON MY SCREEN - EVERY NEW MARKET I HAVE TO RESET THE SETTINGS!

Cash Out can be turned off in settings and then save.

anymore thoughts on the new exchange plus?
anyone actually think its an improvement on the old site?
