No access from outside the UK?

Post by admin »

It looks like Sky Sports have blocked access from last week to their Fantasy Football game and all their other related games. Probably because it's all under 1 login with Sky Bet and new betting regulations have been implemented recently.

Can anyone outside the UK access the game?

So before you go on holiday remember to set up your team and captains as much as possible.

Thanks for the heads up Chris. Email response from Sky towers...

The game is only open to UK based residents, it will probably be very unlikely that you will be able to access the website from an overseas based IP address I'm afraid. Unfortunately there is no alternative address as you need to log in using your Sky Bet details and this is why you will probably not be able to access the website abroad.

Kind regards

...my caretaker is primed and ready for action.

Sky(bet) site now banned from Florida. I was planning a caretaker, but he has given me access to his laptop in UK via TeamViewer.

i used to play it from NZ said I lived in Ireland (close :) i knew it was restricted to UK, so tried to open a betting account to get around it but they didnt want me :shock: , I lost interest in the game when they made it a bit easier with the captains. (less planning) I suppose the purpose of running a game is to promote betting on same...
