Matchbook Offline?

Frank · 06-13-08, 09:35 AM

Down for me.

This is what makes people afraid of putting up offers.

Not being able to take them down at times like this.

DIF · 06-13-08, 09:41 AM

down here too.

Santo · 06-13-08, 09:46 AM

A tracert doesn't time out anywhere, it connects to their server so it must be a problem their end somewhere..

mbr_18 · 06-13-08, 09:49 AM

Santo...what are the addresses for the mirror sites?

Santo · 06-13-08, 09:50 AM

www2, www3 etc

rake922 · 06-13-08, 09:53 AM

What time will Matchbook be back?

SBR Lou · 06-13-08, 09:54 AM

Not sure of this answer Rake.

From Matchbook Trading:

We are apparently having some kind of network outage; I'm told we'll be back online shortly. All open offers will be scrubbed before the site comes back online.

SBR Lou · 06-13-08, 10:11 AM

Santo, I love your avatar.

Thank you for that.

I have an offer on the soccer game starting in 30 minutes and didnt know if I needed to bet it elsewhere

Frank · 06-13-08, 10:30 AM

I guess I still need to call them to see if it was filled.

BROOKLYN BOY · 06-13-08, 10:54 AM

called them no answer

bigboydan · 06-13-08, 11:01 AM

I too tried to call them and no answer fellas, but I'll keep trying though.

Hope you have better luck than when I call my ex girlfriends.

Frank · 06-13-08, 11:03 AM

I tried also and the same.

I put up an offer last night and have no idea if it was filled before the site went down.

This really pisses me off.

BROOKLYN BOY · 06-13-08, 11:03 AM

their customer service really is poor....

AgainstAllOdds · 06-13-08, 11:25 AM

Is matchbook down?

Matchbook down for anyone....do they have a mirror site?

SBR Lou · 06-13-08, 11:25 AM

I believe that is down as well right now.

bigboydan · 06-13-08, 11:28 AM

Crazyl is correct sir. Matchbook and all it's mirror sites are down and I've been trying to call them to find out answers, however I can't get through.

AgainstAllOdds · 06-13-08, 11:34 AM

Dan,

They never pick up a phone...Ive called them many times before and dont think ive ever really reached anyone.

WileOut · 06-13-08, 11:44 AM

WSEX down as well.

WileOut · 06-13-08, 11:48 AM

Talked to WSEX and they said it is down and to try back in 15 to 20 minutes.

AgainstAllOdds · 06-13-08, 11:49 AM

Im going crazy...they are lucky that all bases are tonight...

Tevez · 06-13-08, 11:51 AM

Matchbook really is poor....

I thought it was Betfair´s good alternative but I was wrong.

I am tired of this type of problems. Hapend to me several times even in live betting games with open offers.

I belive that I going to remove my money of this site and play the lottery

bigboydan · 06-13-08, 11:55 AM

Still can't get through guys.

SSLP · 06-13-08, 11:57 AM

I would not deposit funds in a site like this , no matter how good odds they gave .

I dont know how you guys do it I would be flipping the phuck out right now

if this was a weekly problem I wouldn't play there. why would you be flipping out?

SSLP · 06-13-08, 12:02 PM

I dunno , I just am very picky on were I put my money I guess if i cant get to it i get freaked out.

I lost alot of money on BetonSports.com everyone said the same .. they are too big nothing to worry about and I lost 2 years worth of bankroll

Any luck over the phone yet dan?

LT Profits · 06-13-08, 12:49 PM

Santo and crazyl,

Is that Ivanovic in both avatars? If so, she is very underrated (if you get my drift

).

Frank · 06-13-08, 01:00 PM

You would be flipping out if you were the one who had a ton of money up there in offers and had no idea if they were filled or not before the site went down.

Then games start and finish and you still have no idea.

There is no way of knowing and Matchbook can just tell you that your losers were filled and winners not filled.

I don't think they would stoop that low ever but it does cross your mind.

Santo · 06-13-08, 01:05 PM

The downtime isn't such a problem, everyone knows that if you're running an online business, these things happen (Hey, look how many times Pinny have been down recently)..

More problematic is the lack of phone support.

MrX · 06-13-08, 01:10 PM

Back online.

WRONG!

If a sportsbook goes down it is completely different than an exchange being down where people have offers up.

If an exchange goes down, they better damn well have a good excuse why they arent answering phones.
