AUSTRALIAN PLAYERS: Bet365 Discontinuing Casino, Poker, Games, and Bingo services

[Glunn11]

Sorry to you folks from the land down under!

 

Bet365 has made the decision to go exclusively sports betting for Australian players. So, in order to comply with various regulations, they have to stop providing their casino, poker, games, and bingo to players from Australia. This will go into effect starting on 22nd August. Here's the e-mail we received:

 

We're in the process of applying for a Sports betting licence in Australia. As part of our preparations for this, we regret to inform you that our Casino, Poker, Games and Bingo sites will no longer be available from week commencing 22nd August to Australian Players.

 

If you're not from Australia, don't worry. This won't affect you.

this is odd because i do not hear of australians getting these restrictions. this is usually from americans.

These regulations are getting totally mental! Hopefully the UK keeps its cool head.
