![]() Oh right. Got you now Fred. You're quite right about the info, although I find most sites have to be double checked for accuracy. (Pretty average really when they know money is riding on their info.)

![]() They seem to be technical glitches though, not genuine errors, because a page that shows all of the runners will sometimes drop runners when I revisit it 10 minutes later. Dodgy stuff.
Their terms of use page is broken too, so they are really opening themselves up. If someone missed out on a big trifecta or quaddie due to bad info they could lose in court. I heard something similar happened at a TAB outlet a while ago, where the punter got paid out half of the bet he would have placed. |

![]() Not if it's a free service.
I'd say their database connection to the webpage has a glitch, many of these SQL databases need to be compacted regularly and the transaction log compacted or it grows beyond it's capability and starts these sorts of errors.

![]() Looks like its not playing ball again today. Starting to get annoyed now.
Every other website feeding into excel fine as per usual, Sky just seems to not work at all. EDIT: Seems to load instantly outside of excel on the actual skyform website (in chrome), any ideas on what the issue might be? 2nd EDIT: Scratch that looks like none of the tables down the bottom load on most of the racers (i.e. TIME, WET, RATING etc etc) Last edited by evajb001 : 10th September 2014 at 11:37 AM. |

![]() Yup it's meant that I haven't placed a bet today and probably won't.
Starting to think I unfortunately may need to update my spreadsheet to grab the data from somewhere else. Pretty dam frustrating. EDIT: What a surprise, seems to be working fine now unless I caught it at a good time. Only seems to be terrible when more people would be using it earlier in the day.

![]() downloaded them again it got most of it but not all.
can't understand the problem though? I'm not much of an X on websites but how can a bunch of data work one minute and then not 5 minutes later? |

after much pleading they decided not to scratch the emergencies automatically the day before. They still do it in the morning, and I can't fathom out why do it, before the scratchings are known? Surely it's extra work putting form data back on etc.. |
