Geoff Kukard

Geoff Kukard leads casino reviews at CasinoBuddies. He started reviewing UK online casinos in 2017 after years of playing slots and table games himself, and after getting tired of review sites that simply repeated whatever operators told them.

Every review Geoff publishes is based on hands-on, real-money testing. He signs up like any other player, deposits his own funds, plays through the welcome offer, contacts customer support with realistic questions, and then requests a withdrawal. He times every step. If a casino takes seven days to pay out, that goes in the review. If support can’t explain a basic wagering rule, that goes in too. Nothing is taken on trust from the operator.

His methodology focuses on the things that actually matter to UK players: how fast you get paid, how the site handles disputes, whether it’s properly UKGC-licensed, and whether the responsible gambling tools work as they should. Geoff refuses to review sites that don’t meet UK regulatory standards, and any casino that fails his basic safety checks doesn’t make it onto CasinoBuddies at all.

When he’s not testing casinos, Geoff writes guides on safer gambling, KYC verification, and how to read the small print most operators would rather you skip. His goal is simple: give UK players the honest information they need to make a sensible choice and steer them away from sites that don’t deserve their deposit.
