Gamban

Hi Carol (@carolp)

Sorry to hear that Gamban is interfering with your other apps, this shouldn't be caused by the blocking software and I would contact their customer support regarding this and also enquire about the ease of uninstalling it too:

Technical Support: ( https://gamban.com/contact or email: [email protected])

These are 2 additional blocks you can try:

1. Betfilter. www.betfilter.com (Windows, Mac, Android and iOS)
2. BetBlocker.  https://betblocker.org/(Windows , Linux and Mac)

Kind regards,

@carolp you could also sign up to Gamstop which won’t affect your phone, just stops you using online sites. 
Secondly, see if your bank has a gambling block which stops all transactions to gambling sites. 
All these blocks are there to help incase your willpower isn’t enough, which I’d suggest it probably wasn’t in the past.

Chris.

I have signed up to Gamstop also which should help.

I had contacted gamban before deleting it and they had advised me on some tips like email settings and such. With gamban in place I couldn’t even open emails from Aldi’s lol 

I tried all the fixes but to no avail. I was considering buying a new phone in case that was the prob but once I deleted gamban my phone started working again

i will look in to the other blocking software thank you 

I have an agreement with my husband that he checks the bank account daily and would notice if money was disappearing for gambling. So I’m hoping that and willpower will see me through. 

thanks all x

Hi Carol, 

I use Gamban on all my devices and my phone works fine, 

I also have found out that i cannot even uninstall the app from my phone or my devices whilst my subscription is active. 

I hope you get the other blockers in place definitely get the bank to block gambling transactions and its great that you have also signed up to Gamstop which is a huge help as well. 

All the best 

Nathan
