Betfair connectivity

Postby bolpx001 » Sun Dec 03, 2017 5:52 pm

Hi, just wondering if betfair was behaving today, anybody have any issues. I run a totally automated system and I see that two races, where I had three bets, were not placed. Also in another race one bet was placed the other two were not. The other races (two) I bet on were wine. Trying to figure where the fault lies. Normally everything runs smoothly. Any help/comment appreciated - Paul

Hi Paul

I had bot running without glitch Sat & Sun covering 17 race QPL on Sat and and 8 QPL on Sunday, firing either 0,1,2 Dutch bets per race.
But when you say automatic? If you mean 24/7 then I don't know, my is only set up each morning and left.

I had similar intermttent failure as you describes a good while ago. Cured it eventually by stripping every copy-paste action out of excel sheets and vba, replacing with less problematic code?

Thanks tsiri
The computer itself runs 24/7 but reboots at about 5am and at 8am sets itself up for the day. The period of time I was concerned with was around 12:10pm to 1:45pm (approx.) In work at moment so don't have exact times. It seems that you had no difficulties so I will have to look elsewhere - best regards Paul

No everything checks out, no betfair outages and my software ran as usual reports bets placed but do not seem to have reached betfair. I have an idea of what may have happened but need to check further - thanks again for your help - best regards Paul

Sports betting software from Gruss Software


The strength of Gruss Software is that it’s been designed by one of you, a frustrated sports punter, and then developed by listening to dozens of like-minded enthusiasts.

Gruss is owned and run by brothers Gary and Mark Russell. Gary discovered Betfair in 2004 and soon realised that using bespoke software to place bets was much more efficient than merely placing them through the website.

Gary built his own software and then enhanced its features after trialling it through other Betfair users and reacting to their improvement ideas, something that still happens today.

He started making a small monthly charge so he could work on it full-time and then recruited Mark to help develop the products and Gruss Software was born.

We think it’s the best of its kind and so do a lot of our customers. But you can never stand still in this game and we’ll continue to improve the software if any more great ideas emerge.
