Is that also why my orders don't seem to be placed ?

BA makes the beeping sound when I place an order on the ladder but I never see an order getting actualy placed.

Same for the one-click screen.

The BF forum started to play up at about 14.20 for me which signalled problems.

This hasn't happened for me before. What happens with orders that were left in the market?

yep, and that last race Uttox looked a beauty to trade in-running.

Loads of action with Thomo for once not exagerating the action.

Was all green before the off. But put the mockers on today! Risky carrying on now - would sooner let someone else test it out for me!

On the plus side it has meant a new record for the most users ever online at once on this forum!

Turns into a lottery I am afraid. Betfair seems to have an arbitrary way of settling these things. I've been on both sides in the past and argued both but never been given even the courtesy of a call when the amount has been big.

LOL, I never seen so many peeps logged in to the forums before :).

A chat room would be ideal in this situation or a virtual pub :).

I think a real pub is looking like the best bet at the moment!
