    Now they are scaring me!! lolol I might have to bet the old fashioned way if they don't get this fixed before prime time. Not surprised that its down, but am surprised that no response from them. Normally they get you out an email saying "we are aware and working on it" but nothing today.

    I would also like to add the site is still up and taking bets. For example, the NFL game tonight has been very liquid.

    This has only affected our customers who were using our API.

    Warm Regards

    - Mike

    Hello MatchbookMike, you said on May 5th: `EUR, GBP and HKD coming soon. Maybe CAD and AUD as well.`
    Weīre now more than 4 months later, so Iīm wondering:
    When are the new currencies introduced and Why does it takes so long?

    The API has been down since noon ET today, and is still down now, over 8 hours. Most markets have no offers up now.

    Might be a stupid question, but could anyone explain to me (or give me a link) how to use such an API? Can you link that to excel? Help greatly appreciated...

    Maybe they are getting closer to fixing it. I can read my balance now, but still not getting any lines.
