Pinnacle closing in the UK

[mark]

Are there many UK Pinnacle users here? It seems that the bookmaker is closing the access to its service for the UK customers.

These are not rumors, their official site has posted an announcement:

The curious part is that the same situation happened in the US and Germany not long ago. Let us hope that this will not extend.

now every operator world wide will have to pay UK taxes or get out mark

 

[reno cool]

who are the major clients they're left with?

uk started new tax?

 

[mark]

Yup some changes in the taxes have started this. SBOBET seem to be ready for closing in the UK as well. So the only way to Pinnacle and SBO will be via brokers.

On the other hand, I heard that Dafabet and Fun88 have applied for licences in the UK

I've been using Pinnacle for a while now via brokers. I have a few accounts with other bookies as well.

That's impressive Jean, as is your .3142857 post per month average.

I'm also impressed by your <10.000, let that computer work day and night, don't switch it off!

Jean, cook the bacon

and if I return to the topic of the thread, it is understandable why pinny left UK, their incomes would definitely be affected by the new taxes

 

[Jean]

Jean, cook the bacon
