Age Verification: How Long Does It Take?
William Hill has stated that age verification can take up to 72 hours. This step is an important part of the registration process, as William Hill must ensure that all users are 18 and over to abide by Gambling Commission rules. Usually, this occurs automatically through other documents and information provided, but occasionally a separate check must take place.
