It was back up and then went down again. It's not Betting Assistant, honest! |

Betfair really need to get their act together quickly or people will start migrating over to Betdaq.

"99% of customers still use the website."
99%+ of users are losers. Are these two facts somehow linked ???? _________________ 'He was looking for the card so high and wild he'd never need to deal another' - Leonard Cohen |

I just nearly lost another 600 because of not knowing i had matched bets and couldn't log in to the web site so assumed that was down as well.
Its a disgrace that the web site was available to those already logged in and with the API down they should take the lot down till they fix their rat and bug infested piece of garbage. Rant over. |
