Whilst these are all commercial decisions taken by private companies largely due to an increasingly harsh regulatory environment the upshot will be a much poorer offering for players from the companies who remain.

For anyone who has, for example, an account with William Hill just look at the RTP''s on their slot machine offerings. Play'nGo slots at 91% with Inspired Gaming at 92% and quite a few below 90%. Couple this to the "excellent" service provided by this dreadful company now almost as bad as the 888 owner and we can all see the lie of the land.

This i fear will inevitably drive players, and regrettably the most vulnerable ones, to the unregulated sites. The UKGC seem unable to accept this and simply put their fingers in their ears and sing la la la la lah as the arguments are put to them.

Exactly. The other day my friend who is a once every 2-3 months gambler asked me if he should.gamble on a crypto casino as playing on sites in the UK is depressing. So I imagine someone who rarely gambles is thinking about crypto casinos then I have to assume people who gamble on a more regular basis have definitely thought about going or worse gone to the unregulated sites. 

I wonder how much they are selling the www.casino.com domain name for. Gotta be worth a decent amount. 

Never had an issue with Unibet. I play there, Ladbrokes and Coral now and hen. All 94%. Also play MrQ and PartyCasino that are 96%. Every now and then I play PlaySunny and Cashushi but withdrawals there are way too slow.

Nearly all have me on a deposit or net loss limit of £500 which is fine. Keeps them responsible in the eyes of the UKGC and for me I like to play different sites and £500 a pop is plenty.

Gotta admit. Getting way fucked off with how long it is taking to get a bonus and how long I can end up on a single slot. Add to thatI have zero control anymore on how many spins I am putting through. Scared to try new and different games now because I don't know how they play and don't (and have) want to lose a deposit finding out. Been tempted by crypto. I can see myself going there at some point.

MrQ seem to use the same payment system as unibet. I get my money within 30mins. They have a lot of games but the site is basic.

WHG, Rizk and LeoVegas all binned me off because I kept winning. Once your lifetime net loss/profit becomes too much profit all casinos do the same. They only aant losing players. 

MrQ is by far the fastest to pay me out also, within 20 minutes usually

80% of UK casinos have 91% RTP on many slots, not easy to find 96% RTP, only slots I play on William Hill DOA DOA2 96% RTP but they send £25 free bet if u deposit £100, is not a bad deal, regards to UKGC what's the point making all this regulation or having gamestop when anyone can go to the crypto casino and make a deposit and play even kids, I start believing UK MP getting good sponsored from Stake casino pushing everyone to crypto casinos

if you ingather all casinos into the grouping that includes Aspire, Progress Play and Videoslots yes there probably are around 80% with 91% RTP on popular games.

The point I was trying to make is that the better operators such as Stars Group, Kindred, Bet365 etc with little competition will gravitate towards lower RTP's because they could do so with little consequence. The example i gave of William Hill was just to illustrate this point. This is a big company under the 888 umbrella resting on its reputation despite being a really poor operation now. A lot of the crappy operations within the 80% bracket you quote will be long gone.

I can only assume your sponsorship jibe was a sarcastic one. The UKGC is not criminally corrupt merely criminally inept.
