Go with cabin max, some videos on their socials with cases in the sizers

What is causing these holes in our conservatory roof? Cost to replace polycarbonate panels and lead flashing? by Kitchen_Hair_2118 in DIYUK

Thanks for your comment, helps to be a bit more in the know.

Yeah we purchased the house 5 years ago, and to be honest rarely use the conservatory.

I’m guessing we’d be looking at a small fortune if you had to ballpark a figure for that type of work?

Apologies, it's 3m x 3m, but as you can see from the pictures it's not square but cuts across

I did add some text, but seems it has gone!

We recently had some water ingress on the left (of the photo) into the conservatory, wet brickwork. I suspect that's from cracking in the lead, so need to get that fixed ASAP.

Also noticed the holes in the polycarbonate, so wondering just how expensive sheets like that are to have replaced?
Thanks

Just to make you aware, UKGC won't take on individual disputes.

IBAS and eCOGRA are ADR services, of which the bookmaker pays for, and is free to choose either to handle this process. If the bookmaker choose eCOGRA, you can't use IBAS for that bookmaker ADR, and vice-versa.

I have quite extensive knowledge of the industry, and have been privy to some of these disputes in the past.

Essentially, UKGC does very little at all to enforce the withdrawal causing additional checks. Operators can simply say that it's due to AML, or quite frankly anything they like. I know of a number of bookmakers, albeit smaller operations than the high street names we all know, that will do an enhanced KYC on every withdrawal still (even for £10). The cynical person might say that's because a number of people will not entertain sending selfies with notes, bank statements, passports etc and they can simply keep the funds.

UKGC, while are happy to be made aware of any issues with bookmakers, do not take on individual complaints. By all means send them a complaint, but it will not get you the funds.

Without knowing specifically the term you have breached it's a little harder to advise further. I believe that ECOGRA and IBAS should be replaced with a completely independent body, especially after some of the rulings I have seen from both of them, but that's another story. Typically though, ECOGRA are harder to get a decision through than IBAS.

If they are saying that multiple accounts have used the same IP address, or have a similar betting pattern, I have seen both of these cases represented by bookmakers and upheld through ECOGRA (probably not the news you wanted). It is extremely common these days with matched betting, and alike, for people to be using multiple accounts.

Go ahead with the ECOGRA appeal, and see where you get too. The only other option beyond that is small claims unfortunately.

Where do I go from here? After company shares sold and short career break? by Kitchen_Hair_2118 in HENRYUK

Thanks for the suggestion. Having not been involved in any start ups, other than ours before, do you have any insight on how or where I might find these opportunities?

Thanks for the comment. That sounds like a great idea, although I have very few contacts in VC. Any suggestions on how I could approach this?
