If you feel you may have a problem with your gambling, ask yourself the following questions:
Do you stay away from work or college to gamble?
Do you gamble to escape from a boring or unhappy life?
If when gambling you run out of money, do you feel lost and in despair, and need to gamble again as soon as possible?
Do you gamble until your last penny is gone, even the bus fare home or the cost of a cup of tea?
Have you ever lied to cover up the amount of money or time you have spent gambling?
Have others ever criticised your gambling?
Have you lied, stolen or borrowed just to get money to gamble or pay gambling debts?
Are you reluctant to spend ‘gambling money’ on anything else?
Have you lost interest in your family, friends or other pastimes?
After losing, do you feel you must try and win back your losses as soon as possible?
Do arguments, frustrations or disappointments make you want to gamble more?
Do you feel depressed or suicidal because of your gambling?
The more you answer ‘yes’ to these questions, the more likely it is that you have a serious gambling problem and may wish to seek help and advice through the channels outlined above.
For those customers who wish to restrict their gambling, Bet Central provides a self-exclusion facility enabling customers to close their account for a minimum period of six months up to five years as requested. Unless you request self-exclusion, any account that is simply ‘closed’ can be re-opened at any time. In addition to our Telephone betting service a number of other Telephone betting companies are operated under the licences of Bet Essex (UK) Ltd. Any request you make for an Account Limit, Time-out or Self-exclusion to be set on your account will automatically be applied to accounts that you may have with other telephone betting companies operated under the licence of Bet Essex (UK) Ltd. We will provide details of all other telephone betting companies operated under our licence when you contact us. We will only apply limits to the account when requested to do so by you.
If you require information relating to this facility please contact us on 08000 33 77 22.
Please bear in mind the following;
A self-exclusion agreement cannot be revoked
This agreement only applies to Bet Essex (UK) Ltd, if you have accounts with other operators you may consider excluding yourself from those operators
If you wish to resume gambling after the exclusion period expires you must contact the customer services department
Once an agreement to re-commence gambling after a period of exclusion has been reached, you will be required to wait 24 hours before you will be allowed to resume gambling
Our customer services team will be available to discuss any aspect of this process or the implications of it.
In the United Kingdom it is illegal for someone who is under 18 years of age to gamble. Bet Central reserves the right to ask for proof of age from any customer and to carry out checks to verify the information provided. Customer accounts may be suspended and funds withheld until satisfactory proof of age is provided. The legal gambling age varies according to country and we advise you to carry out local research. In order to avoid unlawful betting we may undertake a search with a third party for the purpose of verifying that you are 18 or over.
Bet Central would, however, ask that, to prevent potential misuse, you keep your account number, user name and password confidential.
