Down for me.

This is what makes people afraid of putting up offers.

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

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.

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

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

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.

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.

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.
