Betfair Down / Betfair site crash
i'm more inclined to think it is an issue with their own systems and they are just using lost feed as an excuse not to admit the real issue

As late as yesterday two Brazilian Serie A matches were not put inplay for a large part of early goings. Every major bookie and other exchange I ran by was offering them inplay, and oddsporal confirmed it with live odds everywhere else. And that includes BF's own Sportsbook, so I wouldn't rule out it being the feed provider and wouldn't underestimate just how much of a discount solution, they seem to have handpicked for the exchange. I was, months ago, banging on about it and how I felt, it showed a dangerous lack of commitment to the exchange versus other products. I felt and still feel it's a real threath to trading (unless someone shows up to take BF's place), but nobody seemed to care.
Making a mistake once, maybe twice can just be unlucky. But constant mistakes when there doesn't appear to be an issue anywhere is really odd. It's difficult to explain.

If you have no explanation for what's going on then it's probably because you're not in receipt of all the facts.

there is always Betdag to fall back on if caught in the middle of a trade.Providing of course that you have an account with them (Just a thought) (less commision too).
The absence of all the facts probably means they are not deliberately being given.ShaunWhite wrote: ↑Fri Nov 16, 2018 12:16 amIf you have no explanation for what's going on then it's probably because you're not in receipt of all the facts.

I don't think you'll find many companies prepared to make their internal processes known to all an sundry, especially to people known to have close relationships with competitors.Euler wrote: ↑Fri Nov 16, 2018 11:25 amThe absence of all the facts probably means they are not deliberately being given.ShaunWhite wrote: ↑Fri Nov 16, 2018 12:16 amIf you have no explanation for what's going on then it's probably because you're not in receipt of all the facts.
