Yes, in the specific licensing sense most UK players mean when checking a betting site. Meta Betting and Telephone Betting are recorded as active domains under Clarkson Bell Ltd's current Gambling Commission entry.
Clarkson Bell Ltd has active remote permissions covering real-event betting, virtual-event betting, casino and bingo. Real-event betting has been active since 24 March 2023, while the casino, bingo and virtual-event permissions started on 2 November 2025.
The public sites checked are mainly betting-led, so do not assume that every brand offers every activity covered by the company. A register match confirms the operator and domain connection, but it is not a guarantee of service quality.
Three domains are recorded as active:
The two .co.uk sites were accessible during our check. The Telephone Betting site displays Clarkson Bell Ltd, Regency Betting Group and Regency Racing in its licensing footer, while Meta Betting loads as a live sportsbook.
If you are sent to a different address, stop and compare the full domain with the official register before entering account or payment details.
Meta Betting and Telephone Betting are operated by Clarkson Bell Ltd. The consumer site presents Regency Betting Group as the trading identity, while Regency Racing is another active public brand connected to the same operator.
Clarkson Bell Ltd is an active UK private limited company incorporated on 15 September 2022. Companies House lists Nichola Aitken as the person with significant control, holding 75% or more of the shares and voting rights, as well as the right to appoint or remove directors.
Nichola Aitken is also listed as Clarkson Bell Ltd's only active director. These filings provide the clearest public ownership information available for players checking who sits behind the brands.
The current group connection is straightforward: Meta Betting and Telephone Betting are the accessible consumer sites, Clarkson Bell Ltd is the licensed operator, and Regency Betting Group is its trading identity. Regency Racing remains an active brand name even though its former website is not an active domain.
The same operator has inactive entries covering cheltenhambets.co, betreg.co.uk, regencyracing.co.uk and various Instagram, Messenger, TikTok, WeChat, Snapchat, Telegram, Twitter, WhatsApp and YouTube betting addresses.
Do not treat those inactive addresses as current sister sites just because they carry a familiar group name. For a working route, use one of the accessible .co.uk sites and check the exact spelling before logging in.
For a direct check, open the official Clarkson Bell Ltd register entry for account 61486 and compare it with the website you are using.
Check these details:
Do not rely only on a logo or licensing claim in a site's footer. The official entry is the better place to confirm current status, while the site's terms and footer should show which company handles your account.
Start with the operator if your complaint concerns a bet, withdrawal, account restriction or customer service. The Telephone Betting site offers live chat and publishes the customer number 0800 678 1888, while Meta Betting prompts logged-in customers to use its messaging support.
Make the complaint in writing where possible. Include your username, the date and time of the issue, any bet or transaction reference, the amount involved, screenshots or messages, and the outcome you want.
Postal correspondence can be sent to Clarkson Bell Ltd, Office 9, Dalton House, 60 Windsor Avenue, London, SW19 2RR, United Kingdom. If the operator does not resolve the issue, follow its formal escalation process and check the Gambling Commission's official complaints guidance for the next step.
Gamble only with money you can afford to lose, and use the site's safer gambling tools if you need to pause or set limits.
Casinos can be hard to contact, if you're struggling to get in touch with them via email then you can try writing to the address they've provided on file. This is listed under the UK Gambling Commission and so should be a mailing address which will respond to any requests.
