02 — How we review
Open an account, deposit, ask for it back.
Every brand on this site gets a genuine account, a first deposit at the lowest stake allowed, and a real withdrawal request once any wagering has cleared. We clock the withdrawal from request to landing, log every identity check, and read the bonus terms in full.
01
Licence check
Confirmed against the Gambling Commission's public register before anything else.
02
Deposit test
A real first deposit at the lowest stake the operator allows, on a real account.
03
Withdrawal timing
Clocked from the moment we request it to the moment funds land.
04
Terms read in full
Bonus and wagering terms read line by line, not the summary on the promo page.
"A brand only gets written up once we've actually pulled a withdrawal out of it — not before."
