Error placing bet

Postby BlueBoy » Sat Apr 01, 2006 11:51 am

Sometimes when I place a bet from excel I get the following message on the BA last action line

Error placing bet Unexpected response received from server.

Can anyone explain the cause of this - can I assume it is a problem at the Betfair end and not of my causing or can it result from me making a mistake when creating the bet?


A second query - can anyone give me a guide as to the effect of the refresh rate I choose and the amount of data being loaded. I ask because my broadband connection has a 30gb/month limit and I wonder how near or over this i will go if I have BA runnung say, 10 hours a day with 5 tabs open and a refresh rate of 1.

TIA

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.
