William Hill plc. has decided to file an appeal against the heavy fine of 300,000 euros slapped by the Dutch gaming regulator, Kansspelautoriteit. The regulator imposed the penalty on the company for offering online games of chance to Dutch consumers. The website provides Dutch translation facilities and using the Dutch bank account-linked iDEAL online payment solution.

Online gambling is presently banned in the Netherlands. The country does not offer licenses to any company either. The issue of gambling license has been being discussed in the Dutch parliament for some time now.
