Gala Casino REVIEW
Players from United States cannot play at Gala casino.
Review last updated - June 2017
One of the biggest offline casino operators in the UK, Gala Casino are part of the Gala Coral Group, which also places them as one of the most prominent UK sportsbooks as well. Gala are making a big push to expand their online presence and have started accepting customers from a large array of countries this year.
All six of the reviewers that work for this site have held accounts with the Gala Coral Group for several years and have never experienced any difficulties.
During our November 2015 review update, several issues with this group came to light alongside a merger of Gala, Coral, Ladbrokes and Betdaq into one group.
Firstly Coral casino became non-cooperative with player complaints both at this site and other 3rd party mediation sites.
Gala casino also appear to have engaged in retroactively changing terms and conditions to justify non-payment of a player. As such all operators within this group have been moved to Not Recommended status.

Gala Casino do publish the slots house edge (RTP) information of all of their slots games.
Gala Casino offer the standard Playtech comp point program where every £10 wagered earns 1 comp point and every 100 comp points = £1. The conversion rate improves as you move up the VIP ladder.
The level of complaints at this group of operators is low. There's no question about that. But where complaints do come in it's been a consistent battle to get these operators to speak with us about them. This is a battle that we've ultimately lost recently at Coral casino making us wary of really recommending this group.
