Neds/Ladbrokes Class Action Settlement

What Happened

Maurice Blackburn is conducting a class action against Entain Group Pty Ltd, which operates the Neds and Ladbrokes betting platforms. The case alleges that Entain's "Fast Code" service for in-play sports betting is illegal under Australian gambling laws, and seeks compensation for customers who lost money using this service.
