Responsible gambling: limits and help
Gambling is entertainment that costs money. Only play with money you can afford to lose, and stop when it stops being fun.
When does gambling become a problem?
When you bet more than you meant to, chase losses or hide your gambling. If that sounds familiar, talk to someone.
- You play longer than you planned
- You deposit again to win back losses
- You borrow money or put off bills to keep playing
- You feel restless when you’re not playing
- You play to forget your worries
How do you set limits at Foxyflush?
A time-out or self-exclusion is requested by email to support, with Account Closure in the subject line and the reason. Set your weekly budget in advance and stick to it.
- A fixed amount each week, never more
- An alarm for your playing time, on your phone too
- Bonuses with 35x wagering keep you playing a long time: only take them if you really want to
- Deposits made before closure aren’t refunded
Where can you get help?
The Gambling Helpline (0800 654 655) is free, confidential and open 24/7; you can also text 8006. Family and friends worried about someone’s gambling can call too, and the first conversation commits you to nothing.
How do you keep under-18s away?
Gambling is strictly for adults 18 and over, and Foxyflush checks age at sign-up. Don’t share your login details and log out on shared devices: under the terms, you’re responsible if someone in your household plays on your account.
Play with a limit
