Anyone else having problems with gamblock,I signed up quite a few months ago,and all went well,received emails saying my accounts have been closed,but I’m now inundated with adverts and text messages.advertising sites that don’t use gamblock,all seems very seedy,and if they target me,they must be targeting others,really sad world we live in,give us a break
I haven’t been on a gambling site in over 4 years but I get the no GameStop adverts trying to reel me in as well as texts. I believe they know I visit this site and are aware I have the software working on my devices hence the advertisement.Â
I just ignore them and block where ever I can. The battle for your hard earned cash has no morals, stay safe and gamble free please

Hello @anewlow,
I'm sorry to hear you are experiencing this. When you say GamBlock ( https://www.gamblock.com/ ), I am wondering if you are actually referring to GamStop? ( https://www.gamstop.co.uk/ )Â
GamStop should prevent any gambling sites licensed in Great Britain from contacting you, but it will not prevent emails from international gambling websites.
Here is some information on how to stop gambling marketing texts and emails:
To block gambling ads, the following may be useful:
