    Haha, not sure who they want to focus on since they limited me to £1 bets after using their loyalty programme.

    I actually found them to be one of the better UK books until they eventually waved the no-longer-welcome flag at me.

    Certainly better than Wm Hill and Ladbrokes

    the same goes for Portugal , they dont accept new customers , but I think the old ones still can play there.
    I think this decision as to do with bonus whores , one day all they have left is UK customers.

    Interestingly,Antarctica is also excluded,because of the legislation:
    "Unfortunately, we do not accept customers from your country as our products/services are prohibited and/or restricted by local laws."

    They have a good selection of bets and I'm happy to play there but they are quick to limit , so you do not need to be too sad.
