my cell actually works slightly better than my home internet. But not by much. It will have a good day here and there, when no matter what time i log-in, from cell or home, it works great, but for most part the past few weeks have been SLooowwwwwwww.

If it is just from that one connection then it is likely a bad hop on the route from where you are.

If you open up the Command Prompt app on your PC and type in tracert bookmaker.eu you might find one hop takes a lot longer to respond than others. If that is the case you can email your ISP with a copy of the output and ask if they can manually re-route you around the slow step.

the thing with bookmaker lately (for me) is live betting runs slow on the phone, and when i try on 2 different desktop computers, both of them freeze up after a while of leaving the live betting on.

this didn't happen for years but is happening all the time now

pologq · 02-06-20, 10:04 AM

same happens to my dad on his phone no matter the connection he uses (home wifi, work wifi, cellular carrier)

ClippersSux · 02-06-20, 12:48 PM

Same here. Anyone else notice a 30-45 seconds delay in bets getting confirmed after hitting the "Place Bet" button?

jtoler · 02-06-20, 12:58 PM

seems some bugs or something I only use mobile now

Mr. NBA · 02-08-20, 04:34 AM

Website has been buggy as heck with all of my devices. I am having to log out and log back in most times to make multiple bets....especially during an in-game situation. Getting old for sure.

It becomes laggy to the point of being unusable if you are on a page such as today's NCAAB page with 150 games. Works fine on pages with only a handful of games, but once you get over 100 games on a page + high traffic, it's impossible to even get a bet down.

PhoKing · 02-08-20, 12:00 PM

what a fking shit book. website always down

FakeNews916 · 02-08-20, 12:32 PM

It's awful. It's been like that for about 2 weeks. Can't take college games because the site is unusable.

mrpapageorgio · 02-08-20, 08:57 PM

Works fine on my computer, but holy **** it's unusable trying to load on my phone.

Is this something SBR can talk to them about? Or do you only contact books for disputes etc?
I've used BM/Cris for years and their live betting site have more or less always had issues. Some days it's fine, but most of the time not. When there are plenty of games offered at the same time, it clogs everything and it's very hard to get a bet on. This can not be good for them as they are missing out on action when people can't place bets, but I've pointed this out to them several times and my feedback hasn't gone to anyone who cares. They just say it's on my end etc, but reading this thread it's clear that it isn't. Top book in so many other ways, so it's frustrating that the live site is like this.

caramba · 02-11-20, 01:44 PM

I'm not tech savvy, but what's the solution to this? Would stronger servers do the trick? More competent IT staff? Reducing number of games offered live? Is location of their servers an issue, for instance if they are located somewhere where internet connection is not excellent, is that gonna cause this?

DR225 · 02-11-20, 01:45 PM

Live betting is down right now. Customer service told me they are running an update. Also CS didn't know when it would end but they said it usually takes 30 minutes.

edit: working for me right now.

caramba · 02-11-20, 01:50 PM

I can still bet live. (I think if you were on the live betting before the upgrade you're not thrown out). It's just slow. If I try to enter in a new window that doesn't work.

caramba · 02-11-20, 01:54 PM

Looks up again now.

DR225 · 02-11-20, 02:10 PM

Is it still slow for you? Working fine for me at the moment. The only time I ever got lag was when I looked at the college basketball page on Saturday.

caramba · 02-11-20, 02:38 PM

Speed seems ok now. Odds aren't updating until I add them to betting slip though. But that's a usual problem with them and not upgrade related.

louisvillekid · 02-14-20, 07:21 PM

I can't wait till I meet my rollover for this garbage site. I'm sticking with the others.

F'N ridiculous I can be surfing around the internet and have 3-4 tabs open and zinging and zooming all around from site to site, but then log-in on BM and crap just locks up.
Even if i switch to phone and turn off wifi and use att data, it still freezes up. I'm even amazed how it can slow up the qwerty keyboard on the screen. All other sites if i have to type numbers, they immediately enter, but on BM, when i try type first number, there is a long pause and the number gets bigger, and then just freezes for a good 30 seconds, then you have repeat to get the next number and so on and son, then it takes a minute or two for the place bet button to finally turn blue, then again a slowww lag in finally acknowledging that it was excepted.

It just so frustrating that BOL, and 5D, and all the forums like SBR and other betting info sites, not to mention just regular sites i'm on like yahoo and youtube, everything will work lighting fast, whether on laptop with wifi or phone wifi or phone using att, except for this F'N BM.

DontTailMe · 02-14-20, 07:52 PM

I can't remember the last time I had an issue with the Bookmaker site. What browser are you using?

jjgold · 02-15-20, 06:45 AM

It uses very heavy software which is inefficient

The old lighter version of bookmaker was much better

Live betting takes a lot of system resources also

2Shirts · 02-15-20, 08:55 AM

Bookmaker's mobile site is slow - to the point of being useless recently

2Shirts · 02-15-20, 09:04 AM

The mobile site is completely down for me at this time in so far as game selections. Page barely loads and and if for example you click a spread bet for a game it shows you clicked ML or something totally different.

louisvillekid · 02-15-20, 12:15 PM

F*^K !!!! This is so infuriating!!

How can the site page load so fast, and then I can log-in fairly fast, and their little speed gauge thingamajig will have green 140, then i select basketball, ncaa, college, and as soon i try scroll and pick a game it starts lagging and the speed thing goes to red and 40,000, then, 70,000, then over 100k+. And then as soon as 12:01 hits and I haven't got my play in, the speed gauge goes to yellow and 240 and for a brief second the page is working, and then immediately back to freezing up and red with 50k+

I also think it's odd that when i first reloaded after a long absence, and i took a crazy rollover to get a good bonus, that when my rollover was over 18k the site was normal, now that i have my rollover down to under 5k it is constantly freezing up.

louisvillekid · 02-15-20, 12:26 PM

refresh and once it finally does, goes from green 120, to red 189,566, lmao

louisvillekid · 02-15-20, 12:39 PM

Well apparently , it's college ball. I decided make some plays in other sports and it went through in a breeze. I switch back to ncaa and immediately back to locking up and freezing.

louisvillekid · 02-21-20, 07:00 PM

G*D DA^M Mudder FOcKer!!!! I hate this site!!! Pis*ing me off so bad.

How can I make my NHL and NBA plays all in like 30 seconds, like 5 plays, but as soon i go to college it lags and freezes up, or page timeouts unresponsive. On laptop or mobile. I've been trying to get 3 plays in for 20 minutes.

DR225 · 02-22-20, 12:26 AM

The freezing has nothing to do with your rollover lol. The lag when looking at college basketball lines can be annoying though.

GREAT book who is unfortunately having connectivity issues.

They are doing some pretty major software changes. Instead of one menu for pre-game, and another for in-game, they will be integrated. When you're in a league, you'll see pre-game and in-game matches side by side (with the time and score shown for in-game).

They're basically chopping up 50% of their software and rebuilding it.

big joe 1212 · 02-22-20, 10:06 AM

Almost impossible to bet on college basketball these days with bookmaker

caramba · 02-25-20, 08:31 AM

Where did you hear this?
