 So they will give back the money and permanently suspend my account, but still they won't give me the reason why my account was suspended in the first place, crazy

You can only access Betdaq from countries where they have license

Even with a VPN?

Is that the same for the Betfair Exchange?

Yes, that will raise their suspicions because it hides your location. Imagine it like this …"hey, look at these transactions, they look dodgy to me … and he is using a VPN!" I used to do some forensic financial investigations and if you saw smoke you would see if there is a fire. :)

My understanding is if your using a VPN that is not UK based or in a country that doesn’t have an exchange license then you are breaking their T&Cs.

And sooner or later they will suspend and/or close your account.

Not as bad as poker sites though. If they suspect your running an automated poker bot or indulging in table player collusion then they also seize your account funds. And good luck trying to get any of it back without a high court case. Expensive.

A VPS is a physical server and in the case of Bet Angels there's are located here in the UK so have UK IP addresses and connect directly to the BF and BD servers so work exactly the same as connecting from your own PC

A VPN routes you through IP addresses, so only takes one IP to be located in a banned country or used by many others etc and it flags alarms at BD and BF

So how come I can use a VPN for Betfair in a banned country, when on holiday.

If the VPN is giving you a UK IP or one from a permitted country they won't have any reason to block it.
Unless you are routed through a banned country/IP address or one that been used by numerous other users and is known to be a VPN
