Sky Bet CEO Richard Flint defended the right of betting companies to impose restrictions on the accounts of its customers at the House of Lords, saying that closing the accounts of some punters were done to avoid commercial risks.

The Sky Bet CEO attended the seminar of the All-Party Betting & Gaming Group (APBGG) armed with statistics that showed 97% of Sky Bet’s 1m horseracing punters had no restrictions on their accounts, while 2% had potential winnings capped at £1k for major races, and an unfortunate 1% whose winnings were capped at £100.
