Unfortunately yes. Betfair is also not available from my country. However, it was enough to open the website through the Opera browser, which has a built-in VPN. Unfortunately, I am still not sure if this is allowed, so I haven't made a deposit yet.

The bets thing to do in this situation both of you and OP, is to directly contact and inquire to the management of Betfair. It is also good to read the TOS, then afterwards converse with the management and let them know of your situation, and perhaps asks if there’s a possibility for you guys to be pardoned by such rule. By doing so, you can have the assurance that it will be safe for you to play and deposit in the site without the fear of getting caught or banned.

Can you bypass the restrictions through VPN, pretty sure that you can probably find a workaround to help you with your problem, find solutions first before ranting about stuff, it won't get you anywhere.

Advising the op to use VPN may not be the best advice as the use of VPN may be prohibited by the admin of the site and that could result in a ban of the account in the future which will end up in a loss for the user.

Unfortunately, in this situation, VPN or changing proxies seems to be the only solution to bypass this blockade.
If you are not sure if the use of VPN is tolerated, then to avoid any problems it is best to write to the support in advance, ask about it and just install the VPN after receiving confirmation.

VPN are not acceptable on many gambling site but yeah contact them to confirm so you wont face any problem later on especially if you really want to spend your money on that site. Is this the only option available in your place? I guess there could be other options which you don’t need to use VPN, better to look for that option. Crypto gambling site are growing, there’s a lot of options now.

I come from a country excluded for betfair. I am irritated by betfair brokers, it's not the same. There is no worthy alternative for them. Why has no one built something similar, based e.g. on BTC? Isn't it a profitable business? Is it worth it to ban an account from an allowed country? I have doubts, most of it is probably a scam, and after some time it can be blocked anyway.

I'm also from a country that is exempt for betfair, and I think the same as you. But if the access to play is rejected and uses a VPN, is it even dangerous for us?

Each country does have its own laws and regulations and if a certain platform or business would enter then it is really just normal for them to abide those laws

specially into its users and its normal that they would banned out into those users who do tend to make use of VPN which is really very common.

We do have lots of options actually and i dont know on why they do love to play despite of the issue about locations.

I think that if you are going to use the platform through VPN and you want to spend time and fun with it, I recommend that you write to support, raise your case to see if they can make any exceptions, maybe they can make a special case with you if you intend to stay on the site, it can guarantee you some benefits or maybe not, but it is necessary to speak, on some occasions I have had to make such requests, and some have made exceptions, on other sites not, it all depends on their policies and to what extent they can be permissive.

You wouldnt really mind much when it comes on telling or asking on the support unless if you do put up big funds then this is where you should be in concern but for the sake of entertainment or seeking out some fun then i dont see it for most people to do such thing but instead
accessing on sites directly neither on direct or with using some VPN which is really a very common behavior.
If you do like to ask then go ahead.

Well, if it is large amounts everything changes, obviously when we have a large amount of money what we choose is not to risk putting it in a casino where our location does not allow us to use it, even if we like the casino a lot. , our money is more important, because in reality by not playing in the casino, the ones who lose are the casinos. Writing in support is just a small suggestion

Here in forum one solutions seems nice, but has same problems at the moment. maybe in future they will improve (exbet.io)

Yes, this one could be a decent alternative for crypto enthusiasts seeking for a betting exchange, but as I see exbet.io lacks efficient marketing and being active here on the forum. Last time they appeared on their official thread was September 14, more than 2 months ago already. Exbet is LIVE >> The Bitcoin Betting Exchange [exbet.io]

Many gamblers aren't familiar with this gambling category yet or don't see a benefit in leaving the bookmaker to bet person to person, and that may represent a big obstacle when trying to increase liquidity on such platforms. Anyway I appreciate their effort in trying to bring betting exchanges to crypto universe.

While VPN is a useful thing to access casino websites because of imposed restrictions, I don't think using VPN is a good idea. Websites have their own terms and conditions and most of the time, casino sites don't really permit the usage of VPN. I suggest you read everything that is written in the terms of service of the site before doing anything to assure that you won't be get in trouble later on. If using a VPN isn't counted as an illegal activity, then you can browse for different options of VPNs that would suit your preferences. Otherwise, just don't try it because you might get caught and be punished and fined because some countries have laws regarding that matter.

If a trouble continue to persists, then you better just move on and find another casino that would cater your needs. You see, there are some problems that casinos encounter and most of the time their resolution is to impose banning so that their company's welfare won't be compromised with the protocols set by the state.

You can always use VPN to access the site but the problem is that, you might be kicked out if Betfair ever notice you and your account might get ban. Maybe you can try other gambling sites like Betfair to make your bettings that will allow access from your country. They will llways know when you use VPN but might decide to leave you for a while before banning your account which is risky.

I said again, VPN are shit for using BetFair and other good bookmakers or exchange. If you want play on it find good Proxy, now is many providers of that, a little bit expensive than VPM but works nice. Or the best option when whos playing on phone is sim card.

I'm playing on 2 different countries without problem, but I have good proxy and 2 different devices.

What does proxy or vpn help?

If you are from a banned country and cannot prove your residential address is NOT in the banned country (prove with documents and/or even receiving a phone call on a land line in the country) then your access to the exchange stays blocked.

Betfair has strict KYC so I dont know why the discussion here must be 3 sites long.

VPN is 0 ( ZERO ) help accessing betfair. I know that from personal experience.

Exactly, even if a person could get around the geographical restrictions imposed by a website, in this case betfair, what is going to happen when they have to verify their identity?

Are they going to fake that too? Because I am pretty sure that is a crime almost everywhere, and even then how do they get their money? Simply put it is better to avoid all that trouble, and if the casino that you want to use does have a restriction that does not let you play then just find another casino and be done with it.

I know that mixercasino dot com is not region blocked or geo-fenced. They accept BTC, ETH and 0xMR tokens and include a free privacy mixer. I think LNOcasino club isn't region blocked either and they support a large variety of cryptos.

Betfair may be a desirable gambling platform to play on for you but if your region is restricted then you should forget about it and move on to reputable gambling sites without restriction, if you use a VPN you will still run into trouble in the long run. It's better to stay away than risking your account and funds by bypassing restrictions with the help of a VPN.

At least, he can ask the support system if their site allows using VPN and will not have a problem cash out the win money if he wins. By doing that, he can get the right answer from them to decide whether to use VPN or search for other reputable gambling sites. But move on to the other gambling site that does not require too many things will be better if he does not have any problems in the future. Many gambling sites are out there or from this forum so he does not have to feel difficult to search for the right site.

Don't you think this is unacceptable and the gambling platform would not want to put there self into trouble when they have already specify there restriction from countries they think do not accept there activities. Writing them is just like you want to pull there legs when restriction had already been placed.
This option is absurd and would not be accepted so there is no need of asking.

This. Every gambling users should be responsible to read their terms, if the country is banned by the site, then you should not force to use them coz it will only create a big problem in the future when the site required personal information for kyc verification.

There are lots of users here posting sh*ts and complaining when this scenario happens to them (accessing the site even their place/country is banned from using the site) probably when they're trying to withdraw the funds.

Trying to withdraw the funds and forgot to read their ToS, the common prob of gamblers. Because most casinos will just accept any user even if they are included in the banned list. Only few casinos will not let you in if you are from prohibited countries. So if you don't want your hard-earned money to get wasted, better start reading the ToS of every casino you want to play with. It is not the fault of the casino if you violated their terms and your account is frozen. And you will cry scam. Not fair also for them.

Why not try to use another platform where using vpn is not restricted and you can withdraw your funds without going through KYC or maybe depends on the site. If you continue using the same platform but you will need VPN to gamble and once you win, you can never get your money since where you from is restricted in their platform. Letting you gamble withoit doing something could get them in trouble.

Exactly, OP should've done that one a long time ago or at the least made some sort of compromise to move to other casinos to play, being obsessed with only one seems unhealthy to me if you ask me, you're banned OP so why not just move to another site?

I don't think using VPN without asking their support or any related staffs of Betfair is a good idea. Most casinos do not want their users to use VPN without them being informed about it. I also use VPN on almost every casino that I'm playing, however my case is they know that I am using it because I asked them if it is okay to use VPN.
Yeah it's a nice choice just to move to other casino, but it seems that he like Betfair much, and has very low trust on other casinos.
