Responsible Gambling Guide

At ByGram.co.uk, we are committed to promoting responsible gambling and helping our readers enjoy online gaming safely and within their means. While online casinos can be entertaining, we acknowledge the potential risks of gambling and aim to support those who may be affected.

Our Mission

Our goal is to ensure that gambling remains a form of recreational entertainment, not a source of financial or emotional stress. We provide educational resources, self-assessment tools, and contacts for professional help when needed.

Key Principles of Responsible Gambling

  1. Gambling is entertainment, not a way to make money
  2. Never gamble more than you can afford to lose
  3. Set limits on time and money spent
  4. Take regular breaks from gambling
  5. Never chase your losses
  6. Avoid gambling when under stress, fatigue, or influence of alcohol

Warning Signs of Problem Gambling

You may be developing a gambling problem if you:

  • Spend more money or time gambling than intended
  • Lie to family or friends about your gambling habits
  • Feel anxious, guilty, or depressed due to gambling
  • Borrow money or sell possessions to gamble
  • Find it difficult to stop gambling despite negative consequences

Tools and Support

We strongly recommend the use of gambling control tools offered by most casinos, including:

  • Deposit limits
  • Session timers
  • Self-exclusion options
  • Cooling-off periods

Additionally, players who are struggling should consider blocking gambling sites using tools such as:

  • Gamban
  • BetBlocker
  • GamBlock
