The licence, and who holds it
The licence account is 039225-R-319373-014, held by WHG (International) Limited. It covers bingo, casino, gambling software, betting on real events, betting on virtual events and pool betting. Ownership on the record: Evoke plc (acquired July 2022). The licence is the one claim on this page you can settle yourself in under a minute: the UK Gambling Commission register is public, and the account number above is the whole search term (how to do it on a phone). It is also the claim that matters most, because a licence can be handed back — and what happens to a balance when it is has its own page (read it before you keep money in an account).
The welcome offer, and what it costs
The offer reads: “200 free spins when you deposit & stake £10”. Wagering is 10x, so winnings from the offer have to be staked that many times before they can be withdrawn. The smallest qualifying deposit is £10. The spins part is 200 free spins. A code is required at sign-up: WHV200. Registering without it forfeits the offer, and support will not usually add it afterwards. These figures come from aceodds.com, a listing that publishes the operator’s own terms alongside the figure, re-read on . A Great Britain licensee cannot attach more than 10× wagering to a new-customer offer (LCCP social responsibility code 5.1.1, in force from ) — which is why no higher figure appears anywhere on this site (what the cap changed).
Paying in and getting paid
The methods published for UK accounts are Debit card, PayPal, Apple Pay, Paysafecard, bank transfer and shop deposit. Apple Pay appears on the deposit side; it is not a withdrawal rail, and the money comes back by card or bank transfer instead (why the rails differ). PayPal is the one method here that usually returns money to the same place it came from. Withdrawal times are not published as a figure by this operator and are therefore not printed here.
Where it stands on this site
William Hill appears on 12 of the ranking pages on this site, highest at number 1 on the extra spins page. Position is worked out from the criteria of the page it stands on, not from what an operator pays (the method, in order). Of the 6 established UK review sites checked for this pool, 4 list it: casinosites.co.uk, freebets.com, gambling.com, whichbingo.co.uk.
What this page does not claim
This page carries no score out of ten: a score here would come from a position in a list, and this is not a list. Fields with no public source are left out rather than estimated — for William Hill, live dealer tables are not confirmed in the UK lobby. Payout speed, RTP by game, complaint volumes and support response times are not published by this operator in a form that can be quoted, so none of them appears above. Links to the casino are affiliate links; what that pays for and what it does not change is set out on how we rate and in the data notice.
Written and maintained by the i-phonecasino.co.uk desk. Licence status comes from the UK Gambling Commission public register; bonus figures, wagering and withdrawal rules come from the operator’s own published terms on the day shown below. Where a number is not published, this site leaves the field out rather than estimating it.
