Multiplayer lobby issues

[doomus]

Hi all... looking for help on multiplayer as i've been unable to find players in ranked lobbies for "the climb" and "first strike" trophies. Was in a gaming session tonight with 2 British players (I'm in Australia) who had no trouble getting into lobbies together when searching at the same time but i ended up in lobbies by myself. I even had a second account and when searching at the same time with both of my accounts (both with lvl 275+ cars) each would launch into a lobby by itself!

 

Any ideas??? Thanks in advance for feedback

 

update - Just got into lobbies without issue. i had been loading into lobbies in my drift car on one account and offroad on the other. Changed my preferred race car so this was the default and got into lobbies together. Still took and age for other players to join but all good. Doesnt seem like this should be the fix but seems to have worked.
