Now told me they have no issues,so to any of you having this problem you are going to have to lump it,unless you complain.No more in running for me until the issue is sorted but does not look like it will be as they have had no other complaints.

Almost expect it to say "your bet has been referred to traders, please wait for confirmation".  While waiting for confirmation, the price disappears.  It used to be a good site, what a shame!

From experience do not do in-running here - there's a big time-delay. For instance, if your intended bet won eg 1.5 (despite 1.48 was matched) your bet was not matched; the opposite would be true if it lost eg 1.5 (yours was matched) despite none at 1.55. They'll use the time-delay to maximum effect.

These sort of issues used to happen, fairly often, years ago ... BUT, similarly ... NOT for EVERYBODY - or ALL of the time.

People were posting  - PING TEST Results - and the like... as suggested by (the then) communicative Customer Services

From memory - It appeared that there could have been something of a Router problem from differing Internet Service Providers ... as Not EVERY ISP travelled down the same 'Highway' to and from Betfair.

Whether that was the actual issue - and whether similar is/has been happening here - who knows - Fibre Optic accessibility having improved.

If All the posters having problems are with the same Internet Service Provider, and/or are from a similar geographical area (longshot) - can only be determined by yourselves.

My friend is from a different area and has a different provider, but is having the same problem.

i appear to have been allocated a 10.81 second delay on any horseracing bets.  fine on everything else.

can my Router decipher between different sport's ? 

that's pretty clever.

the graphs on world cup matches are painfully slow and erratic...never ever seen slow bets even on the standard bf interface though.

they'd probably tell me the only person who could possibly put a delay on certain markets, on certain accounts is the owner of the exchange.

and they'd probably be correct Wink

It was either Superfast 200 or Ultra fast 600 not much price difference.
By:

When: 26 Nov 22 21:07
I do agree it is more than what I need but was fed up with a slower internet provider,I am now paying the same for a more powerful internet,it is only on a 18 month offer after which I may get the 200 which will be cheaper.

It is like wading through treacle - so slow to get a bet on - interminable, unusable.

With the new 10 second delay in horse racing markets it is clear Paddy is up to something.

What I have seen for the last few days is on the early race or two it is fine....however as the day goes on then the BF system goes into a sort of creping death and after a few races it is almost impossible to bet on running. The delay from when you press your button to place a bet or lay is usually up to 12 seconds.

tanty..obv internet speeds are adverised as 'up to'..what download/upload are you actually getting?
By:

When: 27 Nov 22 11:55
Varies 520mbps to 560mbps,not really needed I know but great for downloading programmes or films,good for seeing the prices in running on here but lately cannot get on in running due to the problem,but better if you have quick fingers not like mine.

These problems being described have been known in the past, but they happened across the board, including the API.
I havnt seen anyone complain about the API experiencing issues.
Again, if you bet IR ....not even why, but HOW do you possibly do it without 1 click?
Time to get into the 21C
