Is Ladbrokes Down?

If our Ladbrokes uptime monitor is showing that the Ladbrokes website is up, then you can try take one of the following steps to resolve the issue:

1.  Run additional location tests – our system is able to detect if Ladbrokes is working in the USA, Germany, Finland, Japan and Australia. You can test the Ladbrokes website for additional locations here or here.

2.  Check if your location is restricted. Some countries block access to the Ladbrokes website and can do so at short notice depending on their gambling licensing and legislation. To check if this is the case you can attempt to access Ladbrokes using a VPN. Should you attempt this please note that you do so at your own risk and may violate Ladbrokes T&Cs as well as local gambling laws.

3. Hit up Ladbrokes on Twitter. They will report significant website downtime on their Twitter feed.

4. If you are using a VPN, disable it. There is a chance that its IP ranges may have been blocked by Ladbrokes.

5. Check your device firewall, anti-virus software and parental control settings. Any of these could block you from access the Ladbrokes server.

6. Reset your connection to the Internet. You can do this by turning your device and/or modem off for 30 seconds and then turning them on again.

7. Clear the cache and cookies on your browser. You can find a comprehensive guide to doing this here.

8. Use a different browser, for example Chrome if you usually use Firefox.

9. Open up an incognito session on your browser. This should work if your usual browser settings or cookies are preventing you from accessing Ladbrokes.

10. Clear your DNS cache. You can find out how to do this on any device here.

11. Change your DNS server IPs. This can be quite technical, but you can find out how to do this here. Remember to record your DNS settings before you change them. A list of alternative DNS server IPs is available here.

You will need to decode the error code to figure out what is happening. A guide to the meaning of different error codes is available here.

The Ladbrokes website will never be down for long. You can find out how long it has been down for by visiting their Twitter page – searching through old posts can also give you an idea of how long it has been down for previously.

There are a number of reasons the Ladbrokes website may be down. This could range from local issues such as your device settings to website issues that are affecting all users.

We do not monitor the Ladbrokes live streams, and these may have issues separate to the website. Visit the Ladbrokes Twitter page to find out if they are experiencing any issues with live streams, or contact Ladbrokes support to report the issue and get feedback.

Our systems do not monitor the Ladbrokes app. This means the app may not work even when we are reporting that the website is up and running. If we are reporting that the website is up but your app has stopped working you can work through the steps beneath ‘It says Ladbrokes is up, but it does not work for me?’.
