Hey all, wasn’t planning on updating for some time but due to today i have some unexpected spare time…..
The usual stuff… Betunfair crashes on a staturday afternoon, once, twice, three times….. im not touching it again for the rest of the day anyway! I called the help desk half way through the henessy in a state of shock and panic having had a sizable stake in the market when it locked up on me and a load of unmatched bets close by…. the operator to her credit was nice considering i was pretty cheesed… anyhow i managed to get out with a fraction of my green so no great shakes, im just thankful it wasn’t a lot worse! Seriously though they need to do something about it, or at least refund all the premium charges on the day for the inconveinience!?! … if i know betfair that won’t be happening.
If you haven’t already tell them your not happy – info@betfair.com
All that aside, today i thought was pretty smart, ive started my new job which seems to be a decent deal and now trading is purely evenings and weekends for a few extra quid today Big Bucks provided me with one the biggest wins ive had in a while, after the first crash i decided to stick to pre race trading only, a bit of a shame as inrunning is probably just as profitable for me right now!! not bad for a saturday afternoons work eh 😉

I complained the last time this happened when I was involved earlier this year and wrote about it on my blog

It won’t do any good, they never do the fair thing and suspend / refund. There’s a much better way to show them you’re unhappy – move to Betdaq.
They’re an absolute joke to be honest. I cannot believe that after charging people these unfair charges, they haven’t used of what must be a substantial sum of money to improve their site and servers etc… to be able to cope with the traffic they get on a Saturday?
Not good enough and I have started to look more towards trading Betdaq in the future… To be honest though, I aren’t sure that it will ever replace Betfair for liquidity etc??
