Responsible Gaming

BingoCafe supports responsible gaming

To make sure that you enjoy your gaming experience with BingoCafe, we have put together a range of options to assist you with responsible gaming:

Problem Gambling

Whilst the majority of people do gamble responsibly, for some, gambling can become a problem. BingoCafe therefore advise you to follow these guidelines:

  • Please try and establish limits for purchasing, wagering and losses before you commence gambling.

  • Gambling is not advised if it interferes with your daily responsibilities.

  • Gambling is not advised if you are in recovery for any dependency or are under the influence of alcohol or any other substance.

  • Gambling is not advised if your primary aim is to recoup debt with your winnings.

If you feel you have a problem, please ask yourself the following questions:

  • Have others ever criticized your gambling?

  • Have you ever lied to cover up the amount of money or time you have gambled?

  • Do arguments, frustrations or disappointments make you want to gamble?

  • Do you game for long periods?

  • Do you stay away from work to gamble?

  • Do you gamble to escape from a boring or unhappy life?

  • Are you reluctant to spend ‘gambling money’ on anything else?

  • Have you lost interest in your family, friends or pastimes due to gambling?

  • After losing, do you feel you must try and win back your losses as soon as possible?

  • When gambling and 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 lied, stolen or borrowed just to get money to gamble or to pay gambling debts?

  • Do you feel depressed or even suicidal because of your gambling?

Should you find yourself answering yes to one or more of these questions, you may have a problem. We encourage you to visit the Responsible Gambling Council for helpful advice on the following link: https://responsiblegambling.org/
