Hi all,
Vanilla are planning an update to the site on April 24th (next Wednesday). It is a major PHP8 update which is expected to boost performance across the site. The site will be down from 7pm and it is expected to take about an hour to complete. We appreciate your patience during the update.

Though it was just me, can be very very laggy placing bets. And has many small, but still problematic issues e.g. prices not updating on betslip, selected race track full day reverts to single next race only after just 10secs, sometimes it decides to jump from decimals to fractional, and some menus get in the way, the design overall is a bit weak/bland/wishy-washy with fonts too small and in light greyish italics or something. The previous versions were better along the lines of powers current layout, simple, clear, not much bells n whistles but fast to bet and get around when not busy.
One thing can't stand on many sites is not being able to toggle bets on/off - as I only do accumulators (as per the name), so having to go back to golf, horses, tennis, 1stGS etc to mix up selection slightly is a real pain, Powers and very few others do have this function though.
Luckily have accounts with most of the big 20, though many with restrictions/limits, Coral locked me out after just 2 weeks, pity that was fairly clear, simple looking site. 365 is probably the fastest of all, but bit text heavy, uses flash only I think.
Imagine its pretty competitive market with eurozone folks like Betway, Unibet, Bwin etc.
On the plus side there is plenty of options on Boyles to pick from on the main page, even if it looks like an excel spreadsheet.
And the ipad app actually works great (don't like the Powers one, bit slow and the placed bets statement thing is just a muddled unsorted list dump).
Guess the solution is: clear not too busy and less is more (well except maybe for the grey pc boxes that run stuff behind the scenes
Ah sure in 5yrs it'll all be outlawed by the eu, like smoking and wolf whistling at pretty ladies...0 -
