    Who Else Is IP Blocked From Pinnacle?

    And how do you get unblocked?

    In the US, not a Canadian or something who logged in from Canada.

    Just use to check lines, and one day it stopped working completely (now over a week). Did not refresh an extreme amount.

    sun you could always use a proxy from somewhere outside the US --- do you have Firefox? just get foxyproxy https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/fir...roxy-standard/
    and then find a proxy to use from a free proxy list http://hidemyass.com/proxy-list/ (or any other free proxy site just google) and voila!

    this can help you too if say you want to watch a show on the BBC site's iplayer but can't b/c its region blocked -- or anything else that's region blocked online -- just find a proxy from a place where it's available

    or if it's just your computer try another computer/network...change MAC address...etc google it gl (:

    If you only want to check the lines you don't need to go to Pinnacle, you can use SBR:

    I've used a proxy to get by, just dont want to have to do it indefinitely for such a simple thing. Not to mention how slow it is.

    sbrodds is a joke that takes minutes to update, or during slow periods like now it doesnt update for sometimes hours, and doesnt have anything for events like Rugby

    Were you scraping data more than once every couple of minutes? I've heard people being banned for doing it too much.

    They wont unban your ip unless you have an account with them.

    Try unplugging your router overnight.

    I'm banned and I wasn't even hitting "refresh" a million times.

    There are ways around it.

    just download a program that hides your up, or switches your ip to a different location. you can try a free trail for it, but i think its like 30 bucks. or you can just use proxy servers on the internet, but sometimes they can take a while to download the webpage.

    my buddie is a hardcore refresher (when he wants a line to comeup he will refresh ever 2-3 seconds).

    He gets IP banned once in a while and has to send an email to get his IP unblocked.


    whole process takes less than 2 hours, because pinnys amazing basically.

    Amazing as in how their website goes down five times a month and has done so for the last three years. Amazing as in how the pussies left the US market and closed everyone's account.

    Dear Sir,


    Please note that we use an automated system which blocks IP addresses which are accessing the site excessively.

    We are especially sensitive to this when the blocked IP addresses are used by those who do not have a funded account, an account not eligible for wagering, or the XML feeds.


    The reason we block IP addresses is to avoid possible performance problems at Pinnacle Sports, which may effect our wagering account holders.

    We apologize, but we cannot unblock your IP address if it is blocked.

    Kind regards,

    Customer Service Department
    Pinnacle Sports



    unreal

    forever have to use a slow and probably insecure proxy just to look at pinncle

    If you refresh often to check lines without logging in they will block your ip.

    Call tour ISP and tell them you dont want a static ip addy for your service and you prefer DHCP. Then when pinny blocks you , log in to your router , refresh yor IP and you should be good. As long as they don't block ranges of IPs. That could get dicey for them anyway.
