IIRC Thailand had some issues when using hotel web facilities due to 3rd party provider and limited access. Lots of sites were unavailable not just BF. Any proper internet cafes were ok though.

Anyone comment on Austria as I am going soon?

betfair banned in Italy?
By:
The Investor
When: 24 Aug 10 18:26
Yes, Betfair do operate in Italy, but as a traditional bookie, not an exhchange, as this is not allowed for the same old reason, that the government loses out on tax revenue, although they always come up with other bullplop reasons to camouflage that fact, like 'fraud' etc.

On 6 April the French parliament passed a law relating to online gaming which came into effect on the 13th May, 2010. This law prevents us from allowing customers to access www.betfair.com and associated sites from France. We are considering our options for the future but in the meantime, as a result of this change in legislation, we can no longer accept bets from France or any of its territories. Please note that this restriction also applies to customers that may have accounts registered in a different location but attempt to use their Betfair account whilst they are visiting France.
