About The Vic
The Vic is the online side of a casino you can walk into. The Grosvenor Victoria on Edgware Road has been a fixture of London gambling for decades, and thevic.com describes itself as the portal for it: the first item in the site's own menu is Venue, ahead of Slots, and that section covers the poker room, the restaurant, the terrace and a £15 million refurbishment rather than anything you can play from a sofa. Most casino sites are a brand with no address. This one is a building with a website.
That matters for the question people actually arrive with, because a site tied to one London casino sounds like a standalone business, and it is not. thevic.com is one of twelve live domains on Gambling Commission account 57924, held by Rank Interactive (Gibraltar) Limited, a wholly owned subsidiary of The Rank Group Plc. The other eleven include Grosvenor Casinos, Mecca Bingo, Mecca Games, Kitty Bingo, Lucky Pants Bingo, Lucky VIP, Magical Vegas, Regal Wins, Rialto Casino, Bella Casino and Spin & Win.
You do not have to take our word for that family, which is unusual in this market. Clause 1.2 of The Vic's terms of use names all sixteen brands the group runs, four of them Spanish, in one sentence — the operator publishes its own network. Most of the estates reviewed on this site have to be reconstructed from register rows and shared code, because the brands never mention each other.
The code says the same thing anyway. The Vic and its sisters load the same eight shared JavaScript files, serve every image from one content library, and run help centres on one subdomain pattern. Their terms of use are about 11,090 words each and share 391 sentences word for word, including the self-exclusion clause, the dormant-account clause and the route for complaints from outside Great Britain.
What the sites do not share is the offer. On the morning of 18 September 2026 the eleven homepages that answered carried eleven unrelated welcome deals, from a £5 deposit at Mecca Bingo to 200 free spins at Spin & Win. The Vic's own was a £20 bonus on a £20 deposit, with the deposit and bonus to be wagered ten times and winnings capped at £2,000. The one line every offer shares is the exclusion of the same two payment methods from qualifying deposits.
The welcome rule is also scoped differently from the white-label estates elsewhere on this site. The Vic's offer page says claiming it makes you ineligible for any other welcome offer on thevic.com — the brand, not the licence. On ProgressPlay's estate, by contrast, the sports welcome is capped at one across every site on the account, and an advertising regulator upheld a complaint when that was not made clear. Nobody registered twice to test Rank's position, so treat it as what the terms say rather than as a promise.
Self-exclusion works the other way round, and it is the most important sentence in the document for anyone using it: your self-exclusion will apply to all of our websites and associated mobile apps. One request covers all twelve. The minimum is six months, GAMSTOP covers every GB-licensed site anyway, and the group has a reason to be careful here — the Commission's 2018 penalty package against Rank concerned a customer who was contacted during a self-exclusion period.
Money does not travel between the sites, though. The terms permit one account per brand, so twelve sites means twelve registrations, twelve verification checks and twelve balances. The Vic's own payments page sets a £10 minimum on every method it accepts; Kitty Bingo, on the same licence and the same platform wording, sets £5. Two sister sites, one rulebook, different floors.
On the games, the live floor is where this brand earns its name. Evolution supplies the usual Monopoly, Football Studio and Deal or No Deal tables, but one wheel — Live Victoria Roulette — is streamed from the Edgware Road building itself, so the table you play online is a table in the room. The slots lobby names NetEnt, Red Tiger and Blueprint titles including Piggy Riches Megaways and Mega Moolah, but the site never says how many games it carries, which is the one number a reader comparing casinos actually wants.
The company behind it is younger than the brand. Rank Interactive (Gibraltar) Limited was licensed on 11 March 2022, seven weeks after the Commission announced a £700,557 settlement against Rank Digital Gaming (Alderney) Limited over social responsibility failures at four sites that still trade today. The register's regulatory-action tab for the current licensee is empty, and that is worth saying plainly: the enforcement history belongs to companies in the same group, not to this account.

Games at The Vic
A casino lobby with one asset none of its sisters has: a roulette table streamed from the brand's own London building. The library is unquantified — the site says "100's of online games" and leaves it there — so what follows is what the lobby names rather than a count.

How we scored The Vic
Trust score breakdown
74/100
Licensing & regulation25% weight
88/100
Account 57924 carries casino, bingo, software and both betting activities on one licence, all Active since 11 March 2022, and the operator is a wholly owned subsidiary of a FTSE 250 company that also holds the licences for the Grosvenor venues. Marked down from the nineties because the licence holder is a Gibraltar company, 120385, whose head office on the register is in Maidenhead — two addresses for one business. (2 sources)
Payouts20% weight
78/100
Withdrawals cleared in 5 to 15 minutes when checked by our own team in August 2026. That is fast by any standard in this market — for comparison, the fastest published windows elsewhere on this site are BetMGM's and Pink Casino's at one to three days. Not scored higher because speed was the only input recorded: no logged-in cashier method list, no minimum, maximum or fee schedule, and no note of what identity verification asked for or at what point. The figure is a portfolio-level result rather than a per-brand timing, so every brand it covers carries the same score. The Vic's own page claims most withdrawals reach a bank within 15 minutes, with one to three working days for cards outside Fast Withdrawals, and routes payouts back to the method with the highest net deposits. (2 sources)
Bonus fairness20% weight
58/100
Ten times wagering on the deposit and the bonus together means £400 of play to release a £20 bonus, and bonus winnings are capped at £2,000. In its favour, the offer is scoped to this brand alone rather than to the whole licence, and the small print is on the offer's own page rather than buried. Against it, two payment methods are excluded from qualifying and withdrawing cash forfeits whatever is left in the bonus balance. (2 sources)
Responsible gambling10% weight
74/100
Deposit, net deposit and loss limits, reality checks, time-outs and a six-month minimum self-exclusion that applies across every site on the licence, plus GAMSTOP as a licence condition. Held back by the group's own record: the Commission's 2018 penalty package concerned a customer contacted during a self-exclusion period at a Grosvenor venue and online. (3 sources)
Games & providers10% weight
72/100
Slots from NetEnt, Red Tiger and Blueprint, jackpots including Mega Moolah, Evolution live tables and one genuinely unusual asset — a roulette wheel streamed from the brand's own London casino. Not higher because the site publishes no library size, so the range cannot be checked against its rivals. (2 sources)
Support10% weight
75/100
Live chat reached a person in 1 to 5 minutes when checked by our own team in August 2026. Scored on that plus the regulatory floor: a GB licensee must provide complaints handling and free access to an approved ADR body. Not scored higher because response time was the only measured input — channel hours, language coverage and self-service depth were not recorded, and the result is a portfolio-level range rather than a per-brand measurement. The Vic runs its help centre on its own subdomain, support.thevic.com, in the same pattern as every other site on this licence. (2 sources)
Complaint record5% weight
62/100
Scored on the regulator's published record rather than player reviews. The register shows no regulatory action against this licensee, or against the Grosvenor and Mecca venue companies. Against that, the Commission's news pages record three matters against group companies between 2015 and 2022, and disputes here go to IBAS. (2 sources)

Common complaints about The Vic
Withdrawals sent back to an unexpected method
occasionalThe net-deposit rule means a player who deposited by card and later by PayPal can have a payout routed to whichever method has the higher running total, which surprises people expecting the last method used.

The Vic Sister Sites — the verdict
The Vic is the most unusual site on its licence and the least anonymous casino in this review set: it is the online counterpart of the Grosvenor Victoria in London, it streams a wheel from that building, and its menu sells the venue before the slots. As one of twelve sister sites under Rank Interactive it inherits a rulebook shared with Grosvenor Casinos, Mecca Bingo and Kitty Bingo, and the two clauses that matter both favour the player: self-exclusion covers everything, and the welcome offer is scoped to this brand rather than the whole licence. The offer itself is ordinary — ten times wagering on deposit and bonus, a £2,000 cap — and the £10 floor makes it the pricier way into the family. Worth it if the venue means something to you or you want that roulette table; otherwise its sisters do the same job for half the minimum.
Network fingerprint for the 1 The Vic Casino sister sites: confirmed, 100/100.
The Vic sister sites — FAQ
What are The Vic's sister sites?
Eleven of them, all on Gambling Commission account 57924: Grosvenor Casinos, Mecca Bingo, Mecca Games, Kitty Bingo, Lucky Pants Bingo, Lucky VIP, Magical Vegas, Regal Wins, Rialto Casino, Bella Casino and Spin & Win. The operator lists them itself in clause 1.2 of the terms of use, alongside four Spanish brands that hold no GB licence.
Who owns The Vic?
Rank Interactive (Gibraltar) Limited, company 120385, which the terms describe as a wholly owned subsidiary of The Rank Group Plc, listed on the London Stock Exchange. Rank also owns the Grosvenor casinos and the Mecca bingo clubs, which sit on separate Gambling Commission accounts.
Is The Vic the same as the Grosvenor Victoria casino?
Same group and same name, different licences. The Edgware Road venue is licensed to a Grosvenor company; thevic.com is licensed to Rank Interactive (Gibraltar) Limited. The site sells the venue, carries its opening information and streams a roulette table from it.
Can I claim a welcome offer at The Vic and at its sister sites?
The terms point that way. The Vic's offer page rules out other welcome offers on thevic.com only, no cross-brand welcome rule appears in the terms of any site read on this licence, and each brand needs its own account. We have not tested it by registering twice, and every offer remains subject to the operator's bonus-abuse wording.
Does self-exclusion at The Vic cover the other Rank sites?
Yes, and the terms say so: your self-exclusion will apply to all of our websites and associated mobile apps. The minimum period is six months. GAMSTOP goes further and blocks every site licensed in Great Britain, this licence included.
How long do withdrawals take at The Vic?
The site claims most are processed instantly and reach a bank within 15 minutes, with one to three working days for Visa and Mastercard payments not enabled for Fast Withdrawals. Our team's August 2026 portfolio checks found withdrawals clearing in 5 to 15 minutes across the brands tested.
Why did my withdrawal go to a different payment method?
Because of the net-deposit policy on the payments page: where you have used several methods, the payout goes to the one with the highest running total of deposits minus withdrawals, not necessarily the one you used last.
Does The Vic take PayPal?
Yes, for deposits and withdrawals, with a £10 minimum. What PayPal will not do is qualify you for the welcome offer, which excludes both PayPal and Paysafe deposits. Credit cards and American Express are not accepted at all.
Does The Vic have a sportsbook?
No. The licence carries both general betting activities, but of the twelve live sites only Grosvenor Casinos runs a sportsbook, with its own betting rules. The Vic is casino and live casino only.
Has The Vic's operator been fined by the Gambling Commission?
Not this licensee. The register's regulatory-action tab for account 57924 records nothing, and so do the tabs for the Grosvenor and Mecca venue companies. The Commission's news pages record three earlier matters against group companies: about £950,000 of profits surrendered in 2015, a £500,000 penalty package in 2018, and a £700,557 settlement in January 2022 against the group's former online licensee.
