In 2019, bookmakers paid over £19m in fines to the UKGC, and in recent years, William Hill, Betway and Flutter Entertainment (Paddy Power & Betfair) have all paid massive penalties to the UKGC.

At the moment, we recommend reading our reviews before joining BetDukes, 2kBet, Infernobet, InterBet, SponsioBet, Bazingabet, SwishBetCasino, BetSteve, and VStarBet. Progress Play Limited offer a white-label solution that provides all of the components for an online gambling site, including software, odds experts, customer service staff, payment solutions, etc.

However, finding information on these sites' "true" owners is impossible, and they do not tend to stick around for the long term. We know even the most trusted and established betting sites can rack up hundreds of bad reviews, but we are concerned about the early player reviews from the new bookies operated by Progress Play Limited. Firstly, real players have contacted us to inform us that these sites have charged people for certain deposits, with one case charging an extra £300 in deposit charges.

We mention that all of the new bookies above charge "£2.50" per withdrawal in the reviews, but we did not experience any deposit fees and are shocked to hear that it is happening to players.

For example, with Debit card withdrawals, there is a three business days pending time, one business day for processing, and 3-7 business days to receive the payment. Now, it is too early to judge most of these new sports betting sites, and it is not uncommon to see similar complaints and reviews on the most significant betting sites in the UK.

New bookmakers that are listed on BettingLoune will have a UK Licence and abide by the UK's Gambling Act 2005 and all the UK Gambling Commission (UKGC) regulations, making them safe and accountable betting sites. However, if you come across a site not on our list, check for a UK license.
