    It seems horse racing is banned in Germany and Ladbrokes won't let me waste my money on my chosen donkeys due to my location.

    Is there anything I can use to black my location and/or IP address?

    Eh? I was in my local Dick Turpin's a few weeks ago and they were broadcasting races from Germany.

    Maybe it's not banned then, but Ladbrokes say it's unavailable to bet on from here. Strange.

    When I worked for Coral, we streamed racing from Bremen and Baden Baden (I think) so I don't think it's banned over there.

    I had a bet 365 account, when i moved to the US, I tried making a bet, I still had a uk bank account linked to bet 365 but they told me as i was out of the UK I would not be able to place bets online.
    Its to stop betting fraud apparently.

    If they checked my account to see how bad I am at betting they'd soon realise it's not fraud! :D

    Had the same in Spain in September. I just rang them and got my bets on. Seems the issue is just regarding online betting from another country.

    I contacted Ladbrokes before and they just told me it wasn't allowed.

    Seems Bet365 and Laddies have a different policy then. It was a bit crucial because I was in Spain at the start of the Leger meeting!

    I'm not sure that blacking up will really help you
