William Hill Online Casino

OVERVIEW

The William Hill online casino breathes quality and professionalism. William Hill is one of the largest gaming and gambling company’s around and there is good reason for its success. It operates in UK, Ireland, Bulgaria and Israel. It employs over 15,000 people with over 2,000 high street shops and has a huge telephone betting business. William Hill came into being in 1934 and became a publicly traded company (has been traded on the London Stock Exchange) since 2002.

William Hill extended its gambling experience to online users in October 2008, providing the same quality that is often synonymous with the words William Hill. The online casino has a large variety of games, the site is easy to use and navigate and there are a good number of promotions and bonuses.

SOFTWARE AND GAMES

In partnership with software giants Playtech, the online casino (which is actually called the casino club so as not to clash with William Hill’s own casino section) is quick to download and simple to install. On a personal level I prefer the games produced by Microgaming rather than Playtech. Games from the former of these two company’s have better graphics and betting options are less complicated. However Playtech games are still top notch, with some very fun and ingenious classic game variations.

The William Hill online casino offers users over 100 different games including arcade games, video poker, roulette, blackjack, slots and constant additions of either new games or classic games whose graphics and/or gameplay have been upgraded. All games have to be downloaded individually and some can take a few minutes. However once downloaded, they do not need to be re-downloaded at any point. The Playtech platform also allows users to save their favourite games into a list on the casino pop-up screen homepage.

CUSTOMER SERVICE

The William Hill online casino, like most others, has a 24/7 online chat service. They can also be contacted via email, phone and fax and staff are helpful and knowledgeable.
