Scored on the register alone. Safer gambling tool coverage and RTP disclosure are only counted for operators we have tested directly, and this one has not been tested yet, so those weights are excluded rather than guessed. How the score works

The enforcement component carries the most weight and it is what moves this figure: £13,000 in penalties across 1 decision published since September 2023, weighted towards the most recent. A British licence held for 18 years takes licence tenure to full marks. No licence has been revoked, so licence standing is unaffected.

What the Gambling Commission has published about Peter Arnett and Nicholas Arnett

Each entry below is a published decision, reproduced from the Commission's register of regulatory actions as read on 11 August 2026. Wording is the Commission's, not ours.

This is not the company's full enforcement history. The Commission withdraws a decision from the register three years after it is published, so what appears here — and every total on this page — covers decisions from September 2023 onwards. Penalties issued before then, including some of the largest in the Commission's history, are no longer on the register and are not counted. How this window affects the score.

20 March 2026

Sanction: £13,000

Financial penalty

Following a review of the operating licence undertaken against Peter Arnett and Nicholas Arnett (“the Licensee”) the Commission found that the Licensee: Failed to comply with Social Responsibility Code Provision (“SRCP”) 3.5.6 – multi-operator non-remote SR Code in respect of its Adult Gaming Centre ‘Pot of Gold’. In line with the Commission’s Licensing, compliance and enforcement policy statement, and the Statement of principles for determining financial penalties, the Commission has decided to impose a financial penalty under section 121 of the Act. Given the circumstances of the investigation, Officials considered a financial penalty of £13,000 was an appropriate reflection to the seriousness of the failings. The Licensee co-operated with the Commission throughout the investigation and took corrective steps to address the identified failings.
