JustBet Changes Their Web Address
March 10, 2018
If you are a JustBet (SBA Rating C-) customer you will now be logging into Justbet.co and not Justbet.cx. That is because the .cx site is no longer available after a dispute by a politician in a very newly aggressive Australian political atmosphere regarding the gambling industry.
.cx is regulated from Christmas Island, which is an “Australian external territory“. Justbet has said it has made the switch to avoid any problems and is also looking at other domain names to acquire as well.
