Is it against the law to advertise, within the UK, a casino gaming internet site based outside Great Britain?

0

Section 42 (1) (c) of the Gaming Act 1968 states that a casino located outside of Britain cannot invite the public to subscribe money or to apply for information about facilities for subscribing any money. The Board’s view is that you would be able to do little more than publish the name of the site and limited other without getting into potential legal difficulties. I’ve lost a substantial sum of money gambling with an Internet casino. I now feel that my bank allowed me too much credit, and the Internet casino allowed me to bet an excessive amount of money. Can the Gaming Board for Great Britain intervene to help me? No. Internet casinos are all currently based off-shore and are therefore outside the jurisdiction of the Gaming Board for Great Britain.
