About William Hill
In 1934, gambling was actually illegal in Britain, but William Hill founded his bookmaker company regardless. Throughout the 1990s, several attempts were made to float William Hill on the London Stock Exchange but were regularly abandoned due to a lack of interest- it was eventually listed in 2002. Today, William Hill operates around the world. It employs over 16,000 people. The main company offices can be found in England, Gibraltar and the Republic of Ireland. There are 2300 William Hill shops. In 2012, William Hill entered the US market by buying three chains of Nevada bookmakers. A year later, it did the same thing in Australia, rebranding the company as William Hill Australia. Earlier this year, William Hill was forced to pull out of Canada due to a change in the country’s new betting regulations- it was active in British Columbia. For more information about William Hill products and services or to make a complaint about William Hill, call the number listed on this page.
