Heres another example:

Endorsement controversy[edit]
Vorderman had maintained a long-standing endorsement of the debt consolidation company First Plus, an association that ceased in 2007. In 2006 the charity Credit Action attempted to highlight the potential dangers of debt consolidation, calling on Vorderman to stop giving First Plus credibility. Her agent responded that Vorderman had no intention of curtailing the contract for a service which was perfectly legal and offered by an excellent company.[17] When quizzed by The Daily Telegraph in November 2008 Vorderman herself responded with:
"The secured loans market was criticised and it was pertinent to pick me out, because I was a face. I advertised FirstPlus for 10 years. We had something like £1.5billion out on loan and until a matter of months ago there were no repossessions. When that programme [BBC's Real Story] was made, [there were] no repossessions. Did they say that? Funnily enough, no."[29]

Rory McIlroy another. Multi millionaire advertising Credit Cards - the worst debt anybody can have. Do you think he cares or ever thinks about the ordinary people who run up thousands on these bits of plastic and spend the rest of their lives paying back interest? Why don`t they use their celebrity status to endorse, for FREE, products and services which help people other than screw them? Simples, because they are all greedy ********!

The point is that there are certain people out there that would sell their rear end to make a few quid..


True but it's an entirely different point to all but blaming them for 666.bet's current situation, as some in this thread seem to be doing.

That's fair enough then salmon spray and at the time I made my initial post in the thread you had not yet posted in it and my other post was a direct response when I quoted who it was I was replying to. My intitial post was in response to some of below:

Don't ignore Henderson's role in the ad.

posy     22 Mar 15 09:30 
Henderson should be charged with bringing racing into disrepute for associating himself with these people...can you imagine what his owners think. A huge mistake to be connected to Redknapp let alone 666.

Nicky Henderson involved in a scandal? He trains for the Queen don't you know. Lovely gentleman, honest as the day is long, Binocular won't run in the Champion Hurdle.

advertised by harry redknapp and nicky Henderson the case rests mi lord


By the way though, how is anyone meant to know which company might run into problems when taking their advertising fee? If B3t365 start having problems then should we blame that on Ray Winstone?

Feck me if you are offered a bung then you should check out where it is coming from...

However perhaps if in the past you have turned a blind eye to the fingerprints on the brown envelope then you have form.

Just a thought...

Don't have an account with them but article in the Racing Post over the weekend said that anybody who has money in an account with 666  should be able to request it to be returned ahead of next month's appeal against their licence suspension over the alleged offences.

-over-withdrawal-funds

The operator last week said in a statement that customers would be paid once its operations had been approved by the UKGC

Does that not imply that they won't pay their customers if their license is withdrawn?  If that is the threat, the UKGC should be going to court and seizing the customer funds account and every other asset they can find, to protect the customers.

Ray Winstone has twice been declared bankrupt, but apart from me using him was just for example purposes and the main point applies more rather than the specifics or final detail, so replace him with anyone else if you like who advertises for a bookmaker and hasn't gone bankrupt, it would still a bit of a stretch to put the blame of Winstone (bankrupt or otherwise) if B3t365 ever did go belly up.

Surely there is a bit of a difference between 365 and Winstone and this 666 mob and Arry and Henderson? 365 are an established company, and I am pretty sure Winstone wasn't advertising for them 15 years ago was he?

This 666 mob were going for how long, before they were in advertising for them for their 'fee'. Surely they have some advisors who look into the product they are advertising beforehand, or is it a case of "money - where do I sign". The pair of them deserve any bad publicity they get from this imo.

Isn't it a catch 22 situation though Magic__Daps in that one of most effective ways for a new player in any market to gain brand recognition is to get a known name to feature in their marketing campaign?

Yet how exactly do you look into a company that is new in the market if they have no previous history in that market to go on? The UK Gambling Commission granted them a licence and presumably (or hopefully) there's some kind of minimum criteria before that happens and so what more can anyone do, whether they be names taking a fee to help promote them or punters deciding to up an account with them?

They (Novigroup) were licensed by the IoM (see link below)so would have got a provisional license from the UKGC automatically under the new arrangements.  The IoM are very strict on the protection of players funds, so if the UKGC supervision  allows losses to occur, it will be very embarrassing for them.

The revelation that  666Bet are involved with Leyton Orient FC will no doubt come as a huge relief to worried clients - after all the Orient's chief is none other than the legendary integrity icon Barry Hearn, whom I feel sure would never be associated with dodgy dealings. Rejoice!

Hearn's not involved now but to be fair to Orient they were the first to cut ties after the announcement

Leyton Orient Football Club have terminated their 2014-15 sponsorship deal with 666BET after the UK Gambling Commission (UKGC) temporarily suspended the online gambling license of their licensee Metro Play Limited.
