Hi
Even though i have self excluded myself from all bookies and casinos and unsubscribed from emails and blocked text i am still receiving emails and texts with offers, how is this right? Its hard enough focusing on something besides gambling, though i keep getting texts reminding me. Can bookies do this? I thought they support 'responsible gaming' but they wont stop reminding me that i should be gambling. Im trying really hard not to be angry but every part of me is saying its not right. Or am i blowing things out of proportion?
Hi. Have you registered with gam stop for your self exclusions? I did and took the 5 year option. Since then I've received no correspondence at all from bookies via e mail or text.
Hi Gareth,
Yes gamstop in place for 5 years, might just have to end up changing my phone number or something. I know im blowing it all out of proportion, but just find this is ethically and morally wrong, to keep tempting problem gamblers back like this. Bookies are rich enough, but then when is enough enough?
Affected by gambling?
