        I would think 5Dimes and Bookmaker would not follow Pinnacle and SBO's lead and abandon UK players.

        Unlike Pinnacle and SBO those books don't respect other jurisdictions' laws. They thumb their noses at the US restrictions and I'd expect they will do the same in regard to UK tax.

            Not entirely sure how the UK government would regulate a book should they choose not to have a UK license and pay tax, however it could lead to bookies without a UK license who decide to keep accepting UK customers to go rogue towards them.
            It wouldn't surprise me to see an influx of complaints where bookies without a license will start confiscating winnings and using "we're not regulated by the UKGC therefore you can't bet here" as an excuse.

            Not saying 5dimes / bookmaker would do that, but it's something to think about for UK players

              This whole thing is bizarre

              I do think as sbo and Pinny care more strictly regulated and want to go legit therefore going along with the program

              It seems UK books will thrive

              How about Australian books are they booting UK customers?

                No sane brit would be using some dodgy costa rican based book. Slow, limited withdrawal options and average odds. No benefits of using them.

                Only for bonus whores maybe....

                  I'm Australian and could not live without 5Dimes for NASCAR betting.

                  Most of the "offshores" that accept UK/Aussie players offer regular fast payout methods to us.

                        But they charge you a fee to withdraw your own money?

                          Apart from the 1 free a month I know that's the good thing about British books I can withdraw whenever I want free of charge
