Due to changes in legislation, we are required to comply with the new gambling rules in the UK. This means that 24hPoker will close down the UK market from 1st of November. We have made an exclusive deal with Stan James for all our 24hPoker UK players. You will receive your password and username from Stan James via email at 19:00 (London Time) tonight. After that you can login and start playing. Exclusive offer for You at Stan James: - 200% First deposit bonus up to $1,250. - 30% rake back guaranteed for life. (Enter Promo Code: UKPOKER when creating your alias) - $8,000 worth of new player freerolls - $5 free loyalty points. - $10,000 monthly cash game rake races - $5,000 monthly Sit & Go races Please remember to cash out your money before 1st of November. If you do it after the deadline you will need to email [email protected] and we will help you take out the funds. Stan James is a UK online gaming company which is also operating in the Microgaming Poker Network. You will be playing the same tournaments, cash games and against the same players as you did when playing on 24hPoker.

DaMatrix Posted November 3, 2014 Share Posted November 3, 2014 Re: Warning - New Licensing Legislation Affecting UK Players on non-UK Sites You can't play poker at Bet At Home any more either as they don't offer their ipoker product to UK players now. You have to open up a new UK account if you want to use their sportsbook or casino or withdraw your balance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bart(UK) Posted December 1, 2014 Share Posted December 1, 2014 Re: Warning - New Licensing Legislation Affecting UK Players on non-UK Sites Emails received today from Winamax confirming closure of account and stating (separately) the € amounts of bankroll and player points. What makes me laugh is they send the emails out in French, whilst knowing all along we are English (or Scottish, Welsh, Northern Irish etc) and the whole bloody point of closure is that we're from the UK. Le Doh! Quickly followed by a further marketing email in English pleading us to sign up our friends and family as players. Not un brain-cell between them. p.s. try to ensure your bank details are up to date, I've changed banks and not sure I can be bothered using la support for such poultry amount.
