I received a message from Betfair explaining that they are withdrawing compatibility with the following browser versions, which means that the 'standard login' option using Cymatic will no longer work if you have one of these versions:

• IE 6 / XP

• IE 7 / Vista

• IE 8 / XP

• IE 8-10 / Win 7

• IE 10 / Win Phone 8.0

Support was already withdrawn for Windows XP in the past. Windows XP continues to not be supported at all.

If you have one of those browser versions, please either upgrade to Internet Explorer 11, or try using the minimal login option in Cymatic, which avoids using a web browser window to do the login.

Kind regards,

Gavin

The following detailed message was sent to Cymatic from Betfair giving more information about the browser versions that can no longer access Betfair:


Dear Software Vendor,

On Monday 3rd February we’ll be deprecating support for specific TLS ciphers, removing support for more vulnerable internet browsers. This release was originally planned for 11th November 2019 but was subsequently delayed.

Disabling support for these TLS ciphers means that Betfair customers using the below browsers/operating system and language versions will no longer be able to access the Betfair website or login via the API (i.e. via identitysso.betfair.com)

PLEASE NOTE: - We’ve identified a small number of customers who may be affected by this change and have contacted them directly. Less than 0.01% of customers are affected.

Android 4.0.4
