1 day ago David Clifton. As I write this, the last week has seen a huge amount of information emanating from the Gambling Commission. We have seen it publish a short online survey, seemingly aimed at the general public, urging them to have their say on how gambling companies interact with their customers, with a particular focus on affordability. The Gambling Commission has appointed a Lived Experience Advisory Panel tasked with collaborating with the regulator to make gambling safer. The panel met for the first time earlier this week and is made up of people with a wide range of lived experience of gambling harms, including those affected by someone else’s gambling. Gambling Commission appoints Lived Experience Advisory Panel to advance work in player safety. The Gambling Commission has today announced the establishment of a permanent Lived Experience Advisory Panel. 03 February 2021.

Please do not call the Commission to attempt to confirm placement on the Problem Gambling List for at least 5 years – this confirmation will not be provided over the phone due to confidentiality concerns. Individuals desiring removal from the Problem Gambling List who think they may have been on the Problem Gambling List for 5 years or more should submit the Request for Removal per the procedures noted previously.

The Commission provides written notification of whether the Request for Removal was approved or invalid. If the minimum 5 years on the Problem Gambling List have not been completed, the notification will include the date the individual will be eligible to request removal from the Problem Gambling List.

Removal from the Problem Gambling List is not effective until the individual has received written notification from the Missouri Gaming Commission that their name has been removed from the Problem Gambling List.

Each Missouri casino licensee may choose to continue exclusion or reinstate privileges for former Disassociated Persons (individuals who have been removed from the Problem Gambling List) at the licensee's sole discretion. It is the INDIVIDUAL'S responsibility to contact the casino(s) directly, by mail or telephone, to discuss the possibility of reinstatement.

How long will it take to process a Request for Removal?

UK gambling firms have been accused of exaggerating the scale of black market betting, in an attempt to fend off tougher legislation from the Government.

The 2005 Gambling Act is currently under review, with several areas of the industry set for changes to help modernise the act.

Leading figures within the gambling industry have been backing a report claiming that 200,000 people in the UK spend £1.4bn ($1.9bn) on black market sites every year, warning that tougher regulation could result in further customers moving into this dangerous area of unprotected gambling.

But Gambling Commission chief executive Neil McArthur has dismissed the report – written by consultancy PwC – as “not consistent with the intelligence picture,” arguing that it lacks any evidence to show an increase in illicit betting.

In a letter to a cross-party group of MPs examining gambling-related harm, McArthur said: “We know that licensed operators and their trade bodies are concerned about the impact of the illegal market, but our own evidence suggests the impact may be being exaggerated.

“In any event, we are not convinced by the argument that suggests raising standards in the licensed market will prompt consumers to gamble with illegal operators.”

McArthur also emphasised that the report should be treated with caution, suggesting it fails to distinguish between real customers and automated systems or bots.

Gambling with Lives, a charity aiming to raise awareness of problem gambling, recently called on the UK Government to raise standards in the gambling industry after suggesting licensed operators offer “totally inadequate consumer protection.”
