Further Client Agreements in Online Gaming and Mobile Telecommunications Sectors

GB today announces that Ladbrokes and William Hill have become clients of its
electronic verification solutions - URU and ID3-Check. The addition of these two
leading gaming operators to GB's client base means that GB now provides
electronic verification solutions to all of the top ten Online gaming businesses
globally as defined by the Power 50 index of Online Gaming companies (Note 1).

Additionally, in the Telecoms sector, Blyk (www.blyk.com) has announced that it
has selected GB's (www.gb.co.uk/news/blyk) URU and ID3-Check as its chosen age
and identity verification solutions for its revolutionary new service, the first
ad-funded mobile network in Europe which links young people up with brands they
like and gives free text messages and minutes every month.

Richard Law, GB's Chief Executive, commented:

'These recent business successes for GB's electronic age and identity solutions
in both the Online Gaming and Telecoms sectors increase our leading position in
these markets. More importantly, they illustrate the continued move by
organisations away from paper-based methods of verification to more efficient
and effective electronic solutions. This is evident across all sectors including
Financial Services.'

Notes to Editors

About GB Group plc

GB Group plc provides a range of products and services to enable organisations
to capitalise on their greatest asset - their customers. GB has expertise across
a range of sectors and is able to transform customer data into valuable
information, enabling clients to truly fulfil the strategic objective of 'know
your customer' and in doing so make better, more informed decisions.

We are constantly improving our products and services by applying our core
values of Innovation, Quality and Excellence. This has been demonstrated over
the course of the last year by the launch of ID3-Check(TM), GB's international
identity verification service and by the launch in January 2007 by DataIntegrity
of online services which replace the periodic supply of data on disk to the real
time availability of data via a web-based delivery solution.

Know Your Customer ('KYC')

Many people will be aware that there is a regulatory requirement in the
Financial Services sector for organisations to 'Know Your Customer'. We believe
that knowing your customer is fundamental to all businesses, not just those in
financial services, and GB has three complimentary offerings enabling our
clients to achieve that. These are

• DataAuthentication helps businesses validate personal identity
  information and provides anti-fraud solutions to fight crime.


• DataIntegrity helps companies capture and maintain accurate customer
  contact data, an essential foundation for any profitable customer
  relationship.


• DataSolutions empowers companies to consolidate and analyse customer
  data from various sources, enabling them to make better, more informed
  decisions.


Established since 1989, GB's core competencies combined with industry sector
knowledge have enabled the company to deliver significant value to organisations
such as DSG International, Scottish Power and Lloyds TSB in helping them derive
maximum value from their customer relationships and sustain real advantage over
their competition.

GB Group is supported by its key relationships with major organisations with
which it works on major initiatives (an example being British Telecom), together
with a team of highly talented and motivated staff successfully delivering
business solutions.

GB Group plc is listed on the London Stock Exchange (www.gb.co.uk).

DataAuthentication, GB's fastest growing business area, specializes in
electronic age and identity verification through its URUTM and ID3-CheckTM
solutions.


About URUTM and ID3-Check

URU is an online identity verification solution which was developed jointly with
BT and is DataAuthentication's principle offering. URU, which is powered by GB's
ID3TM search engine and decision making technology, provides access to GB's
comprehensive range of identity data and BT's high capacity web delivery. It
helps organisations to protect themselves from the growing problem of identity
theft and fraud, which is estimated to cost the UK economy over £1.7 billion per
annum. URU enables companies subscribing to the service to make an instant
decision whether to accept the identity claimed by any given individual and
confirm their age in seconds.

As a result of legislation, new opportunities and social responsibility
requirements, the market for online ID verification is significant and growing.
Although an estimated 0.5 billion manual ID checks are conducted annually in the
UK, less than 6%* of these are currently performed electronically.
(* figures as at November 2006)

Earlier this year, GB launched its ID3-Check solution which is an international
online identity verification service developed by GB's DataAuthentication
business.

GB's identity solutions can now verify 800 million individuals in 26 countries
making GB's ID verification solution the most comprehensive in the market. It is
therefore appropriate that GB are the main sponsor of the first European Summit
on Identity (www.identity-matters.co.uk) to be held in London from 20-21
November 2007. This summit is an industry event and demonstrates how the whole
issue of identity theft and fraud has increased whilst the value of identity
capital and its protection to both the consumer to businesses has become
increasingly important.

URU and ID3-Check have demonstrated that online checks are more effective, less
expensive and more robust.

GB works closely with trade and industry associations, such as the Finance and
Leasing Association, the Remote Gambling Association and the Financial
Technology Research Centre, to advise businesses that more robust processes can
prevent financial crime. We have worked closely with the Gaming Industry to
address social issues such as underage gambling and addiction and our Social
Responsibility Consultancy helps Gaming operators formulate best practice to
comply with regulatory requirements and improve profitability.
