    Now the question is, is vanman saying he hadn't had a trouble-free day for a longtime and now he finally has, or is he saying he still hasnt.

        They must have made upgrades to software, now when I confirm a horse wager, my balance is immediately updated, usually I would need to refresh. I also have not been having problems for a bit now.

            Bummer. Hopefully the improvements a lot of us are seeing will (a) not be short-lived and (b) make their way over to you.

                Well, both. When the problems were at their worst, I tried both.

                But yesterday when things were going well, it was on Mozilla.

                There was no reason to try the other.

                        Not a problem on your end. This is happening without rhyme or reason to many people. Pinny is blocking IP's I suppose in an attempt to try and stop some kind of attacks. You never know if its gonna get you. If you can change IP's then its a minor inconveniance--if u can't then its a major hassle.

                        If they have some software doing this--we can assume by now it is way too sensitive in separating friend from foe.

                              It has officially crapped out here too. Can't get in on Mozilla nor IE.

                              When I try to get in, I see addresses it is trying to connect to flashing in the bottom left. I keep seeing,

                              www188.pinnaclesports.com

                              I remember seeing that a lot at other times it wasn't working too. When it has been working, it seems to be other numbers rather than the 188.

                              No idea what it means but thought I'd mention it.

                                  At least this time when it crapped out on me it's a Tuesday afternoon with nothing really going on for me!

                                    Well, I was able to get on about an hour or so. Now it's gone again.

                                    These guys need to get their shit together. They have been having problems now since Euro 2008 started, that was the first time their site went down and it has been problematic ever since. I did a tracer route, times out at the 14th hop for me.

                                      Ok, I'd like to list a complaint! Last night, I placed a 13pt Super Teaser at Pinnacle. Everything went ok, the confirmation screen was perfect, but after I confirmed, I went to my pending bets, just so I could write down what they were. And they were ALL LISTED WITH THE ORIGINAL SPREAD! SO IT'S LIKE I DID A 4 TEAM PARLAY GETTING A CRAP PRICE OF -140! THAT'S BULL! NO 13 POINTS! This has never happened before either when I do my teasers.

                                      I let it go for a night, and decided to log on today to see if it maybe updated, and gave me the 13pts on my 4 teams like I deserve. BUT I HAVEN'T EVEN BEEN ABLE TO LOG ON, THE PAGE WON'T EVEN LOAD. I WAS SO HAPPY WITH PINNACLE UP TO THIS POINT.

                                        That's interesting Masu about your teaser. I wonder if that's what CS meant when they were saying the teasers weren't displaying correctly, and hence took they off for a while. This was about a week ago. But I wouldn't worry too much about that, just let them know about it and they will put the right spreads in. I dealt with them before regarding a wrongly graded wager, and they corrected it in about 10 minutes.

                                          And now things are back working here.

                                          Maybe I shouldn't even bother reporting until things have been stable one way or the other for some significant length of time.

                                          But anyway, there it is. Working at this second.

                                              Ok again for me, but it will be interesting to see what happens around 7:00 or so when various leagues start their night.....I'm on about a 36 hour streak without any delay/interruption whatsoever, so I'm hoping they've addressed whatever problems they had.....

                                                Really? I have only noticed the 188 when it has been crapping out.

                                                When it has been working I see various lower numbers. 16 right now.

                                                I logged out and back in and it's 19.

                                                  it's worked all day though the pinnacle logo isn't displaying and the menu isn't displaying properly.

                                                  i've started studying chinese since they apparently aren't going to fix the betting menu

                                                      But not a bad idea.

                                                        Dear Client,


                                                        In order to resolve the site's recent speed issues, Pinnacle Sports made a change to the IP address. When a site's IP address is change, the information must be updated by DNS servers worldwide. It is possible that the DNS changes we made have not propagated to your DNS servers.

                                                        Our IT Department provides the following information to assist our clients. Please note that we can take no responsibility for any adverse consequences, if you use this information. If you have doubts, please contact your local computer specialist.

                                                        In Windows... Start -> Run

                                                        In the dialogue box, type the text cmd. This starts a command prompt window.

                                                        Many systems also have a "Command Prompt" Start Menu item, which is the same thing.

                                                        In the resulting command prompt window, enter the command "nslookup www.pinnaclesports.com".

                                                        The last line of text the nslookup program outputs should read "Address: 216.152.164.80". If it shows anything else (particularly 209.200.129.80) the DNS changes have not yet propagated to your DNS servers.

                                                        It can take from several hours to several days for all DNS servers to be updated worldwide. You may want to contact your ISP for additional information.

                                                        If the problem stil persits, please provide us with your IP address
                                                        Dear Client,


                                                        Our IT Department advises that the IP address you provided has been accessing the site excessively or is using robotic tools. When we notice this type of activity, the IP address is blocked from our site.

                                                        We understand our clients want to update lines, but expect this to be done in a reasonable manner. Rather than use the refresh button, clients may use the Dynamic Lines Display option which is available on most of our pages.


                                                        Accounts who use robotic tools to access our site are also blocked. Instead, these account holders should review the XML option on our menu.

                                                        The reason we take this action is to avoid possible performance problems at Pinnacle Sports, which may effect all our clients.

                                                        We have unblocked your IP address.


                                                        Please remember that continued similar activity will cause your IP to again be blocked.

I wonder if that's what CS meant when they were saying the teasers weren't displaying correctly, and hence took they off for a while. This was about a week ago. But I wouldn't worry too much about that, just let them know about it and they will put the right spreads in. I dealt with them before regarding a wrongly graded wager, and they corrected it in about 10 minutes.
                                                          wow, i'd actually give them $10 to keep if they would fix it within 10 minutes. but still no change. I emailed them and they said they forwarded it to the proper department.

                                                          so i'm just waiting now, hope this doesn't take more than 24hrs... glad the first game on my teaser is on the 21st though.

                                                            Some books give cash bonuses. Some give freeplays.

                                                            Pinnacle's bonus is they expand your cultural horizons.

                                                                They need to fire their IT department, obviously those guys don't know what they are doing.
