    This is a non issue. Gambling corporations dont want customers or people who are gambling addicts, they are known as problem gamblers. Thereputable companies will you show the slightest concern that you might be an addict limit your account instantly or shut it down. Caulker with a history of being an gambling addict will never have a job with a reputable gambling company. I have a friend who was declined a job at bet365 as well because his account there had been shut down due to responsible gaming concerns…

      It’s hilarious that you think the gambling companies actually care about their customers. Absolutely none of the ‘protection’ protocols they have in place would exist if it was up to them. They run adverts and allow you to limit yourself so they can say to anyone complaining that they do actually care, look at what we are doing. You’ve literally got a story here about them blocking a former addict from appearing on TV because they are scared. Yet you think it’s a non issue, yikes.

      He wouldn’t be taking a job at a gambling company though.

      He’d be talking about football on a show sponsored by a gambling company.

      Bet365 haven’t blocked his employment with a third party because they’re responsibly worried he’ll lose his money. He can do that with, or without, that particular employment.

      They blocked it because it would be allowing reality to fly too close to the lie.
