Deposit option not available / Hungarian Accounts

Betfair circulated a notification, new registrations blocked from the 5th May and as of 18th May they are no longer offering any products to customers from a Russian country of origin

Isn't Napshnap from Russia? I heard they've got a bit of a trading community going over there, this will no doubt complicate things for many of them.

I was in Slovakia when their government banned access to betfair. Bizarrely, the official web page you got re-directed to actually stated that it was not illegal for customers to bypass the block, and even said that they expected people to use VPNs to get around it.

Is API access still working in Hungaria ? What was the situation in HUN before BF blocked site ? Was it in "grey" zone ? I heard that there were no restrictions till now. Are there any traders in HUN planning to move to another country ? Thanks
