oh dear...

lassie on twitter DM told me 'you are not the only one affected'...

yesterday afternoon...

they should get their stories straight...

very poor...

Report HappyHibby May 27, 2025 12:33 PM BST
it's a bit like being told by Betfair/Rtv that the glitching is MY fault...

even tho my internet is pretty good and i have no issues apart from BLV issues...

of course it's MY fault...

they just don't want to do anything to fix it...

and they know there is nowt i can do about it.

We have had no other reports so far, I apologise for the inconvenience this has caused.I have checked the live feed from our end and there seem to be no issue. If there was a technical issue, it would be the case for all users.

I can suggest checking whether there is any update that is required on your browser or on your device. It might be that you require a java update. Otherwise, this might be being blocked by your system e.g. firewall.

I do apologise for the trouble caused here.I understand the frustration, however, there has been no reported issues from our end and upon checking, it is working from our end.

I have raised this for review and a senior member of our team has checked and confirmed that there is no issue from our end. I'm afraid there's nothing further that can be done from our end.

I understand that this is not ideal and I apologise for the inconvenience caused.Whilst I understand that this is frustrating, we have identified no technical issues from our end.

I would suggest looking into your browser or app for any updates that might be necessary. Alternatively, if this still doesn't help, try using a different connection i.e. if using your mobile date use your wifi or vice versa.
