    Add my name to the list, couldnt load up any tables from my client yesterday but since i was in trnys i jumped on my laptop and all worked fine. Today i reinstall client on this PC and it worked fine for the 1st 2 trnys i signed up for then crapped out so i switched again but this time i could not load tables on that PC either. Symptoms exactly as shown in mumsie's vid. Either Skys player base have broken computers across the board or there was a bug introduced in the last update.

    I haven't played since Saturday where I was experiencing the odd issue. Tables loaded ok and everything but had the ongoing problem where the lobby of mtts I'm in won't open. Anyone have same issues with tourney lobby's?

    Hi All,

    Please be aware that we are looking into these ongoing issues and doing all we can to smooth them out. Please note playing through the web browser is the most reliable option at the moment as the problem do seem to be isolated to the download client. I will update further tomorrow.

    Thanks

    in the turbo tuesday it took 30 mins for table  to load the previous days before that i was having a issue to a lesser degree with lag i do not have a great internet connect and the connection does cut out some times but this is differant because i could load youtube fine while at the same time sky would never load the table and tonight the lobby will not even load which is just as well as if sky is still having issues least it stoped me joining a mtt

    i think i needed a short break from poker hopfully sky sort this by next week

    Hi All,

    We are aware that the issue persists and I can assure you that we are continuing our thorough piece of work around the investigation of the issue.

    If I could ask you to help with our investigations by answering a few questions then that would be very helpful.

    1) What device and operating system are you playing on?
    2) Have you had an issues with the download client?
    3) If so, what issues have you had?

    Thanks
    Sam

    Hi sam,

    Ive had a couple of issues, firstly on occasions the download browser simply wont load it gets stuck on "loading cm menu" then just gives up after a minute or two, i re install and try again and after a few attempts that way it works. 

    Secondly, ive had issues where the table wont load it will just have the spinning circle i shut the table and attempt to reload (and close the dl client and restart that) but will have same issue.

    And finally having an issue where I will get the "you are already watching this table" error pop up and will close down the table im playing on,i only play sit and go's and never have two copies of the same table open :/ and its any annoying when ur 6/8 tabling and your not entirely sure which one has shut to attempt to reload it.

    I'm running windows 7 on a pc

    Hope this helps.

    hi i also have been having problems with download client, i was playing the main an mini and 9pm hunter tables up and runing fine. then the 10.30 hunter table wont load probaly. for about 5 mins i hd to go on broswer to get that one table. so i hd 3 tables coming fro client and 1 on broswer. the problem with this is fitting them all together etc. also i could not shut down and start again as playing to many. im using a sony vaio windows 8 core 13 laptop. normally its fine. but over the last couple of weeks have had same problem.

    Rough timescale but basically four or five days ago could open the download and lobby fine but some tables would stay continuously loading(the circle thing going round and round). Then about three days ago could open the download but the lobby would stay continuously loading. Then for the last couple of days the download hasn't been opening at all, just stays 'initialising' 'til I click close. 

    Everythings working fine now.

    Same problems here

    Desktop, Windows 8
    doesnt go past the "loading CM menu" screen

    I wouldn't mind so much playing on the browser (though I really don't like it) if it wasn't for the fact you seem to need to manually click 'launch table' for every single MTT. Pretty annoying when you got a load of tables on the go, and at 9:15pm (for example) an MTT that starts at 9pm still aint opened cos you haven't got your eye constantly on the clock and haven't brought the Sky webpage back up to click 'launch table' dead on 9pm.

    Download takes about 5 attempts to work. I have to go to task manager and manually close the programme before trying again and again.
