Hi I have banned myself from all sites. I had a drunken moment I opened account in my friends name I bet £1000 and won xxx. I used my own bank card. Now they have asked for ID. Obviously I can’t give ID. Will I get done for fraud? Will they tell my friend? I have definitely learned my lesson. Please don’t give me a hard time I’ve been a absolute mess worrying.Â
Thanks for your post, gambling operators now ask for ID documents for these reasons and will not allow customers to withdraw money until identification is verified.Â
Check the www.gamblingcommission.gov.uk website for further information and regulations around this.Â
These things do happen and put it down as a mistake and it would probably be a good idea to be honest with your friend. In regards to gambling recovery we are always here to support and advise.Â
