Well worth a read.
We are the compulsive gamblers, we choose to make the deposits and place the bets. We are the ones that neglect our health, families and friends, we make those choices and we all need to accept that and face the consequences of our actions but I sincerely hope and pray that the Gambling Commision can start to grow some bigger teeth and fight back against some of these companies. I will never be one of those people and I hope I never succumb to placing another bet for the rest of my life but I do understand the few that can be moderate and have a flutter should have that option, I just wish it was easier to exclude, I wish companies that take your money had more responsibility to protect those of us that become desperate.
I hope nobody reads the story or hears the outcome and views it as a way of adminishing their own responsibility but if from this better checks and balances are put in place and it helps reduce the number of people that become as desperate as I got and that it reduces the pain inflicted on the innocent loved ones around us CG then personally I think that would be the greatest ever 'win'
Well done to the Gambling Commision
