I was just about to start a similar post. Prices flashing all over the place and bets appearing in the Matched/Unmatched section that I havent made.
Very weird....

Glad it's not just me then !!!

..... and then they have the nerve to charge me 20% Premium Charge !!

I wonder if this is what they mean, when they say betfair is going to float !!

Seems to be returning old data at times, it's like trading with a 5 second delay :?

Received the following reply.

The problem was due to an issue with one of our servers and this has now been taken out of service. Therefore, the problem should now be resolved.

It seems like most of us are already getting used to BetFair's every once in a while problem. I am still playing with them even if I am sick of having caught up betting when a problem like this occurs.

I'm taking a day off in betting today because of this.

Still no official statement coming from them.

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.
