Important Betfair New Charges (Please Read)

[MarkRussell]

You should now be aware that Betfair are introducing some new charges on 14-Apr-2008 (Please see item 4 of Betfair Charges to read about the new charges http://content.betfair.com/aboutus/?product=exchange&sWhichKey=Betfair%20Charges).

These charges relate to requesting data and as a user of a high performance Betfair application there is a possibility of you incurring these charges unless we do something about it.

With this in mind the latest version of Betting Assistant has been updated to include options to allow you to manage the requests being made.

It is very important that you now upgrade to the latest version of Betting Assistant as old versions will no longer work on 14-Apr-2008.

If you are using an old version then uninstall it and get the latest version from the download section of www.gruss-software.co.uk

If you are now using version Z68 then that version is OK.
If you are using the non-api version there will be an update later this week.

If you have any questions, please e-mail admin@gruss-software.co.uk

Regards,
Gary & Mark

Hi Mantas - I just got that message !!!! I don't understand why they need more charges and found the explaination very confusing. Guess I'll just have to wait and see if it effects me. It seems to get more difficult everyday.

Read the BF forums.

Dont understand either, they are pounding the traders. Will get more difficult for the software fendors who asks a lot per month.

Happy i use BA

Hi Gary,

At the moment I am hitting my bet limit and getting close to my request limit on occassions. So my wife has decided to open an account too as she can use the same system on different markets. I take it that this will not be classed as one account?

Cheers,

Oli

I don't think so, but they do attempt to link accounts when it is the same user so it might be an idea to check this with Betfair just in case they are linking accounts in the same household.

Wishful thinking I think. I remember one of the BF chat sessions when the premium charge came in, someone asked about his wife opening an account. He was told that it would be 'linked' to his account so if he payed PC so would she.

[methodman]

I have two a/cs which are linked but my wife has an account which they have not linked.

P.s. don't tell betfair
