Hi Everyone, wanted to throw my 2 pennies worth in - I am Andy Jones, CEO of AliQuantum Gaming... I can confirm I'm not Israli, (Though I have lots of great Israli friends, and non of them are scammers!)
I wanted to answer the points raised above, and hopefully confirm to the OP that while things may look dodgy to him, there are innocent explanations.
BXO Holdings is a company we set up last year to provide White Label services to the UKs Arcade industry. My two partners in the business, Jason Frost and Gabino Stergides, both come from the Arcade sector, and have very good reputaions in their industry - Jason is in fact the President of EUROMAT (
), the European manufactorers association, and Gabi is a previous president of BACTA (
) the UK amusement trades association. For myself, I have run AliQuantum Gaming for almost 20 years in various jurisdictions, including being one of the first licencees ever in Malta, back in 2004, until moving solely to operate under our UK licences in 2019. AliQuantum is a software supplier, not an operator.
The aim of the company is to provide a lightweight online gaming experience for players who traditionally only played in arcades. There is no plan to do any marketing to the sites other than from within the Arcades, by way of in house posters and flyers only. We are not interested in big stakes gaming, instead seeking to mimic the new lower stakes imposed on the landbased sector, and hopefully staying well clear of problem gamblers by having small playing and deposit limits. The aim is to supplement an arcades income rather than canabalise it.
Obviously, the pandemic meant the extended closure of all the UKs arcades, which meant the project was put on hold for some considerable amount of time, and we have not actually launched the product yet, indeed we only enabled registrations and deposits in the last few weeks to begin working on the sites again.
I can categorically say that the same people BEHIND the company (ie US!) are the same people FRONTING it (still US, and our staff!).
With regards to the address of BXO holdings, this is simply because we used a company called Company Formations 247 (
) to incorporate the company, and it offers regsitration address services. It may well be that other less reputable companies also have their registered addresses at that address, but that is outside of our control. The UKGC also has details of our "operational address", which is the same as AliQuantum Gamings address in Poole. We certainly are not going out of our way to try to hide anything at all. i think if the OP had been a little more thorough in their initial investigations, then they would clearly have seen that things are not as they have portrayed.
Regarding the playing of fun games behind the KYCd login wall, i am a little surprised at that, because, assuming that the player was in the UK and not on a VPN, this is not possible. Both 1X2 and myself have checked again to make sure that this is not allowed.
Deeplay mentions in his post that we have a GAMSTOP link but are not on the GAMSTOP list of participating companies, but this is incorrect, BXO Holding can clearly be seen on the list here:
(half way down the first column!)
Also, I can most definitely say that AliQuantum is not a dissolved company -
While I can see from the Original and Subsequent Posters comments how SOME of the aspects of the set up MIGHT be misconstrued by someone looking to play it that way, I would like to reassure you, we arent money launderers, scammers (Israli or not!), or dubious gambling operators trying to fleece unsuspecting players - quite the opposite. The site may appear basic to the type of sophisticated online gamer who traditionalty haunts the hallowed halls of CasinoMeister, but that is not the type of player that we are trying to attract.
As Bryan has kindly posted in the thread, we have been in the business many, many years, and I hopefully still have quite a relatively good repuation on these boards and in the wider online community, which as you will know is not always an easy task with some unscrupulous players always looking out for ways to take us humble platform providers and operators down
Anyways, please dont hesitate to ask if there is anything that I can clarify more!
