National lottery rule change

[BM06]

I play the Lottery online from Turkey, but not anymore:-\http://www.national-lottery.co.uk/player/p/tsandcsruleschanges.ftl:(

I play online at home and when I was in Turkey I logged in to check the numbers and a message popped up saying they could see I wasn't in a valid country so if I didn't log off immediately my account would be voided!

I just had a look at it just now from Turkey and only had the standard "you are not in UK" message, but no word of voiding the account.

There is the usual warning about not playing but now includes this line


Please note that from 13th December the Rules will change. As well as being a UK or Isle of Man resident, you must be physically located in the UK or Isle of Man when buying a ticket or when setting up or amending a Direct Debit Account, including changing your numbers or payment details.

Does it work through a proxy site?

the message popped up all through my July and September visits. I did however use it twice weekly to check results with no problems   No bloody wins either [!]
