NewzBitez – Operator Mansion Group Confirms UK Exit

Published Date January 18, 2023

Players at some of the UK’s longest-running casino and sports betting sites were disappointed to find they can no longer access them. Check out expert picks for best casino sites for top alternatives!

On 12th January 2023, the Mansion Group sent emails to members of its UK-facing brands, which include Casino.com, Slots Heaven, and Mansion Casino, to inform them of its exit from the UK market with effect from 13th January.

It confirmed that players will still be able to access their accounts up until 12th April to withdraw any outstanding funds. While Mansion Group has yet to comment on its decision, many believe that its surprise exit (after nearly 20 years of operation) is due to the forthcoming tightening of regulatory requirements in the UK.
