    Seems like some sound ideas there, that can at least be looked at and improved upon if needed, added to where necessary.

    Tonight I had a chance meeting with a current employee and talked for the second time this week about KYC asking “do you know what it is?” to the employee who has only been in the industry for the last couple or few years. “no”. When I explained, the person said oh yea, I remember that. We don’t do it anymore, we just ask people’s names and if they are ok. Arms length protection now. But who knew this was the current UKGC policy ?

    I still maintain that to go into a bookies, you should be ID’d and Gamstop applicable but I also agree gamstop should be less of a faff to either join of leave. Does a person have to test and risk their vulnerability to realise they need it ? millions of people to toy with, is no joke. A person who knows they have been made redundant should be able to join and if they get another good career job path going, be able to return to what they wish to afford.

    The reality on the UKGC front is seemingly more blur than anything. My one friend is on gamstop for 5 years, couldn’t care less when it ends, is glad it’s in place and isn’t going to try to end it, while being openly glad to the point of admitting he needs it due to financial circumstances. Another friend of mine doesn’t need permanent gamstop but would like to be able to enjoy a good period of money making and lock a bad period, if that makes sense and not even be concerned about the urge. Just enable a limit, simply, and done. Disable when ready, convenient.

    I have to ask, with all the “talent” in the industry, how hard is that to make ? Don’t say hard.
