Recognising the Signs of Problem Gambling
It is important to be aware of behaviours that may indicate gambling is becoming a problem. You should consider seeking help if you notice any of the following:
- Gambling to recover previous losses or “chasing” losses
- Borrowing money or using funds meant for essentials to gamble
- Spending more time or money on gambling than intended
- Neglecting work, family, or social responsibilities
- Feeling anxious, restless, or irritable when not gambling
- Experiencing arguments or conflicts related to gambling behaviour
- Constantly thinking about gambling or planning the next bet
If any of these apply, we encourage you to take immediate steps to assess your behaviour and seek professional support if needed.
Guidelines for Safer Gambling
To help you maintain a healthy and enjoyable approach to gambling, please consider the following tips:
- Set a strict budget before you start and never exceed it.
- Treat gambling solely as entertainment, not as a way to make money.
- Never gamble with money you cannot afford to lose, such as household bills or rent.
- Avoid chasing losses or increasing bets to recover previous losses.
- Take regular breaks and limit the length of your gambling sessions.
- Balance gambling with other hobbies, social activities, and commitments.
- Do not gamble when feeling stressed, upset, or under the influence of alcohol or drugs.
- Use only disposable income for gambling activities.
Self-Assessment and Support Services
If you are unsure whether your gambling habits are healthy, we encourage you to complete our confidential self-assessment quiz. This tool can help you better understand your behaviour and identify if you need support.

Managing Account Access: Self-Exclusion and Closure
- Temporary Self-Exclusion: You may exclude yourself from gambling for a period ranging from 24 hours to 6 months. During this time, access to your account will be blocked.
- Permanent Account Closure: If you wish to permanently close your account, please contact our support team. We recommend withdrawing any remaining funds before initiating closure.
- Reactivation Policy: Accounts closed for reasons other than problem gambling may be eligible for reactivation upon request. However, all requests are subject to a thorough review by our Responsible Gaming Team to ensure your safety and well-being.
