The worst among the worst.
This casino should be reported to the gambling commission. It's the worst you can find. I mean it.
After posting this review I received an email asking me to provide details, so more hassle on top of the terrible service they provide. Which led me to check online about this company and found out they have been ordered by the UK Gambling Commission to pay a £375,000 penalty in March 2025 for social responsibility and anti-money laundering failures. Be aware that they have other sister sites.

The customer service team consistently impresses with their excellence. However, the website's outdated design and challenging navigation are unfortunate drawbacks. I would certainly visit more frequently if these issues were addressed.
