Ladbrokes completes move ahead of schedule

We reported in a article dated August 7^th that Ladbrokes would be moving its online business  to Gibraltar and although a target date of the end of the year was set the company have completed the move nearly two months ahead of schedule. The Chief Executive Officer of Ladbrokes plc, Christopher Bell said “Competing from the UK against operators with significant tax advantages became unsustainable. We are pleased to have completed the move ahead of schedule and with a minimal impact on jobs”. Ladbrokes Sports Book which has over 1 million customers has recently made some changes which include Best Odds Guaranteed” on all British Horseracing (this means that if you take an early SP (starting price) on a horse and the odds later change, Ladbrokes will pay out the winner  at whichever odds are the greater) and more live streaming of sporting events.

In a good news week for Ladbrokes they have also been included in the DJSI (Dow Jones Sustainability Index). Whist this may not have any direct effect on punters, the fact that the company was praised for its human resource practices, crime prevention and security systems as well as anti money laundering and promotion of responsible gambling should suggest that it is a safe place to gamble and that your details are well protected.
