Thanks for replying, it really does mean alot to know I’m not alone with this.
I’ve never had an issue with online betting,I done it once and for some reason never bothered with it again, it’s always in the bookies that it happens.
I’ve self excluded from absolutely everywhere local including one independent bookmakers.
I went back into that particular bookies a few weeks after self excluding, the staff member approached me and instead of telling me I was excluded and to leave he told me that he had tore up my self exclusion form and I was free to use his betting shop anytime I liked.
If he had told me to get out the embarrassment alone would have made me leave however since that day I have lost scary amounts of money in his shop. They couldn’t have cared less that I had self excluded. I have now given that place an absolute fortune back. I hate it.Everybody just wants the money I’ve worked so hard for.
Can I ask,what is longest you have went without a gamble?
I went roughly 4 weeks once and it felt incredible, I wish I had never went back to it.
