Dont appear to have chat facility after being knocked out of tourney (which I find happens regularly, lately)  :(

Could be a bummer for part 2 of the league?

Other than that appears to be ok. Noticed only David LLewellyn in the stud at DTD ???


It is rubbish that you can"t chat on the table rail..... but there is a chat area in the tournament lobby...... and that could make for interesting interaction during the league tourney!

Yeah but the chat in the Tourney lobby has loads of people talking across each other, and will be nigh on impossible to keep track of, the chat facility, and the find a player facility on the previous BF, was the only good thing on there!!

I don"t mean the main lobby - the tourney lobby is more specific.

When will the WCOAP holding tanks appear in the new client please?  For some reason, Stud is available, but no others are.... and the Stud has only 1 runner registered.

I"m sure it"s under control, but with recent challenges that Betfair have struggled with.....

True...but they are locked (when I checked 90 minutes ago)..also the WCOAP "tanks" are mostly missing.

I"m giving Betfair a few days to sort this out (and to give Leigh an opportunity to get back from Goodwood...where he"s glad handing the Betfair people IIRC) and look at these issues.

It"s certainly unfortunate that people can"t (currently) buy into the Irish event as there were quite a few seats available before the switchover.

We"re on the case with the holding tanks.

I"d rather the job was done properly first time, than have to deal with issues afterwards, and it is a manual process in this particular case.

I need to register for this, was waiting for payday to come around which it has.. is there anyway of doing this or do I need to wait until the switch over is complete? I"ve booked flights and hotel.. wouldnt want to miss out  :-\

Phil, at the moment this the only way...keep checking BF...it wasn"t even close to full last time I checked before the switch (I think 30+ of 100 available).

Should be back to normal within (I"d guess) 7 days.

This doesnt look good. I have tried loads of times now and it still isnt happening. I get a screen saying you have to update your account, I then get a screen asking to agree to terms and conditions, I tick, click and nothing happens. I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling, switched off firewall/antivirus (i think) and I dont know what to do now :-(

Can you only have 1 ongame account?
