If you ever see a company called Tipico don't touch them with a barge pole
A friend of mine mentioned them to me and I signed up. A week later I hadn't yet placed a bet and they decided to close my account - an email informed me that their 'Security Team' had decided to close it. I sent them an email asking why and they said their rules and regulations allowed them to close any account without further notice and without giving a reason.
Sounds like they are not Customer Orientated - it wasn't as if I won anything with them!
Very strange people - just maybe they treat people badly hoping to get publicity?
