Anyone having troubles navigating to VIP?

Have been trying for a week, and gives all the classic indications of a website gone bust.

As this is a A- rated website at SBR, it is of some concern unless of course there is a suitable explanation.

Having said that, at least a holding page should be there explaining the situation.

Anyone got any info?

VIP website been Working fine for me the last week

Must be some problem with your ISP. I had the same problems with Cascade (Back in the days when they were a decent book )

I haven't had a problem with any other website at all, used both mozilla and IE browsers and same thing happens.

I have surfed probably 40 different sportsbooks in the last week, no problem. Every link I have taken from SBR to a sportsbook has worked, except VIP/Betgameday or other white labels.

So naturally I find it hard to believe it is an ISP problem...

..and I don't reside in the US or anything like that.

I assure you that there is nothing wrong with VIP. When I had the problem with Cascade I found I could access it using my Dial-up A/c where as my NTL Broadband didn't want to know

If you are using broadband try to access it using a dial-up A/C to see if that works for you.

I eventually found that using a 'Proxy' connection with my Broadband did the trick with Cascade, but I didn't like using this because of the security issues with proxies.

Someone on this forum kindly supplied me with an alternative URL to access Cascade which worked fine with my broadband.

Maybe someone here can supply you with a different URL to access VIP

what kind of error do you get? the 404 page not found type? blank page? computer shuts down and proceeds to explode, but at last second you pull the plug and save the day?

LG thanks for that. I tried a proxy server and it worked a treat.

As I have 'top of the range' broadband and associated technology I didn't think it would be some strange issue where i cannot see the web page for some reason. It is the only sportsbook I cannot, and I used to be able to view it no probs at all.

So naturally - as I have had sportsbooks go arse up in my face before, thought here we go again!

Thanks for the advice.

I want one of these footie pumps!
