NOTICE TO BOAY'ers: Major Update Coming ×
Bit Of A Yarn

30 HOURS TO THE BIGGEST COCK UP BY TAB


Recommended Posts

There will always be teething errors with any new system. I've encountered a few issues that may also be pilot error. Time will tell. Have not enjoyed being kept in the dark with exotic dividends and have been caught out with their timer saying six minutes to jump when in fact there was less than one minute to the off. 

We are all familiar with the old system even with all it's faults so it can be a steep learning curve getting your head around all the changes in short order. Will give it and myself time before giving my final verdict.

I did try to put a treble on earlier and gave up on it. Took a bet on a NSW harness race and tuned in to watch it but no coverage. Surely, they could have both channels covering live racing on this landmark day ?

How do you get the streaming video to the background so you can see the full betting screen without that in the way but with it still playing?

Best I could do was this by clicking on the far right icon next to the full screen icon

Obviously not Mark, would hate to see you doing online banking

No problem for years but funny you should say that as I got shut out today as I couldn't remember my answers to security questions i must have given 10-15 years ago.  But its the same with all these websites I find - when they make changes to something that you have been doing automatically for years (usually multiple times (50-60 on a busy day)a day) it takes a bit of getting used to.

Well,  bully for all you smart pricks....I'm still locked out.. no reply still from helpline and no response from helpdesk other than to refer me to helpline..

Can't access the site at all from my husband's 3 year-old Android phone either. Tried everything we can think of. Just keep seeing the blue circle of doom....

Simple solution mate.

Open 2 TAB web pages, one for video and one for navigation, I have been doing it for months like that.

True, I admit that I have been using a clone system for a few years at Sportsbet so none of this is that new.

But we do seem to default to criticising before we fully understand the change, give these things a little time to bed in.

Good idea. I followed Chimbu's suggestion then moved it off screen but couldn't get it back or pause it or anything.

I really cannot understand what all the fuss is about,i mean if they spend another 50 million to get it right you should all be up and running in  about march  2020.In the meantime you should all open a overseas betting account to keep you going until the village idiots in NZtab get it right for you all.

Yeahh...I can do that but I moved it off screen then couldn't get it back?

Yes, agreed. f you drag it completely off the page, you can't get it back. A full minimise function that lets you reopen the video page from the toolbar line would be useful. Otherwise refresh or two pages it is.

I had a mate take this test. https://www.pgf.nz/take-the-test.html In the last 10 years in his worst year he netted 120k from professional gambling. In his best over 200k. The rest in between. He scored 5 on the test -  Score of 3 to 7 = Moderate level of problems leading to some negative consequences..... 2 delightful kids and spends heaps of time with them. Lovely wife in what appears to be a very happy marriage. Has nice family holidays and is a really together great bloke.

Gambling is definitely for suckers. Don't do that.
