Just had a DM from Betfair on Twitter - apparantely it's a severe issue.

This might be down a while

yeah, apparently a fuse went on one of the sportsbook backup servers and Curry's was closed, so they canabalised the main exchange server :D

Been trying for the last hour to log on but keep getting a message about server problems. Anybody else having problems?

i notice that my balance is "wrong" - they seem to have an exposure still registered against my account even though there are no open bets

The Betfair exchange mobile app is suddenly in a foreign language. I uninstalled and reinstalled same issue. On the google playstore other people have made the same observation in the review section. I rang Betfair this morning and the operator hadn't heard of the issue (thought they'd be inundated with calls) He checked with the help desk and apparently they are aware of it and trying to resolve it. If out on the go it is still possible to access the site in english via your mobile browser. Just hope it's not some kind of scam.

I've never been able to get it to work on my smartphone - it doesn't scroll down so I'm unable to read or access links below the top of the page.
