ator 666Bet has informed its customers they can now withdraw their winnings, after agreeing a deal with payment processor Skrill to process withdrawals, following the suspension of its operating licence last month.

666Bet was instructed by the UK Gambling Commission to pay customers when the suspension of its licence – held under the name Metro Play Limited – was confirmed by both the UKGC and the Alderney Gaming Control Commission.

However, 666Bet claimed earlier this month that it was unable to pay customers until it had reached an agreement with a third party provider, before later announcing that it was seeking clarification from a potential third party provider that it had attempted to gain approval from UKGC for 666Bet to go back online.

666Bet’s website began running again this week and a statement on its Facebook page read: “As you are aware, customers can now withdraw their funds from 666BET. However, due to the volume of withdrawals currently being processed, please be aware that it may take a day or two longer than the advised 3-5 day turnaround.

“We would like to remind customers that all withdrawals will be processed via Skrill so you will need a Skrill account in order for your withdraw to be processed.”
