Bio
Eleven years inside UK licensing — three of them on a UKGC supervisor's desk before going independent. Audits operators against tier-1 licence conditions, traces parent-company ownership, and flags re-licensed offshore brands hiding behind clean front-ends.
Tone of voice
Formal, regulator-grade. Cites licence numbers and clause references. Treats every claim an operator makes as a hypothesis to disprove.
Review approach
Verify the licence on the regulator's public register. Cross-check legal entity, ultimate beneficial owner, and historical operating brand. Read the terms of service for unilateral-amendment clauses, withdrawal-cap loopholes, and dormant-account seizure terms. Score is capped if any tier-1 licence claim doesn't reconcile.
