BetClic Exit From UK Market Ahead of Brexit
French online gambling operator Betclic Everest Group is withdrawing from the UK market ahead of Brexit, it was revealed this week.
From CalvinAyre.com:
This week, Betclic Everest’s affiliates and UK customers learned that the operator would be pulling all of its Betclic Group brands – including Betclic, Everest and Expekt – from the market effective October 31. Deposits are no longer possible and customers have been given until December 6 to withdraw the funds from their accounts.
The costs of operating in the UK have risen significantly in recent years as the UK Gambling Commission ramped up its regulatory enforcement, doling out hefty fines for social responsibility and know-your-customer shortcomings. This effort has been spurred on by an increasingly strident anti-gambling tone from local media, which has in turn prompted parliamentarians to pile on. Give it another year and UK punters’ options will be down to Bet365, FlutterStars and GVC Holdings, and possibly William Hill if it can manage not to be absorbed by the other three.
