It's the same setup, it's just that they've changed what's on it. No longer are you greeted with the "as of March 17th, Matchbook has dramatically changed it's commision structure". It also provides links to their explanations rather than doing the explaining right on the home page in regards to live betting etc.

Same here. Got stuck in a horribly exposed position last night (Bulls v Cavs) because I couldn´t login. Strangely I was eventually able connect using another laptop (same internet connection).

On my main computer though, I still can´t using IE or Firefox.

They should add a forum there. All exchanges should have forums.

Quote:
Matchbook is offering its established clients a new deposit option known as "*************** Banking." Players with access to online banking can use the bill payment option to fund their account in 7 business days, just like paying a utility bill online. None of your personal financial data is shared with the merchant, and the funds are securely transferred from your bank to Matchbook's merchant bank.

Deposit fees for *************** Banking are 3.5%, which will be fully reimbursed by Matchbook in the form of commission credits. There is a $3,000 maximum per transaction daily and a $200 minimum.

If you are interested in this deposit method, simply e-mail deposits@matchbook.com to request a personal account number. We'll set up your *************** Banking account and send all further instructions.

If you have any questions, please feel free to contact us by email, live chat (via our Contact Us page), or telephone.

Kind Regards

I've used it and it works. Took a lot longer than seven days though. Nice if they figured out how to speed it up.

True words.

And graphs of live trading for each game. And an educational section on live trading, including the suggestion to shift to percentages for those sessions. Matchbook reminds me of Tradesports in that they don't really seem to know where to take this next. It's just sitting there, with a staggering amount of unused potential.

I would be happy if I could just get numbers on the games in one sport on one page... I know they do it to save bandwidth but I'm sure most of those that want quick access just open up multiply tabs anyhow... A good solution would be to let you choose the games you want to monitor... I usually don't have too many offers out so I struggle through it but I can't even imagine how much it sucks to those trying to monitor numerous offers....

Matchbook has been sporadic for me the last week on two separate computer networks.
Can't log in or log in then can't place bets. Been with them over a year and never had this problem - anyone else getting this?

i never got that email and i know it can't be true for me cause i can't be so lucky. if this applies to us canadians, then this would be the best news of the year for me.. no more running to banks to fund my acct with wires..if i can do this at home, i will be so happy..but there is a catch, probably like NON CANADIANS, or soemthing like that.. i will pray this is true..

Nicky, I received that email in August and used it THREE weeks ago, and the money still isn't in the account. Matchy blames processor, funds have cleared the bank.

Knowing it has apparently worked successfully for somebody does do my peace of mind some good, though.

this is a great idea. I wish they could have a page that just shows my open markets.

Looks like the same web designer who neatened up Matchbook has done a little touch up work on WSEX.
