Responsible Gaming

Gaming Should Be Entertainment

At Treat Yourself Camberley, we believe that online casino gaming should be an enjoyable form of entertainment only. Gambling is not a way to make money or solve financial problems. It should never be viewed as a source of income or a solution to money worries. Always gamble within your means and only with money you can afford to lose.

Age Verification

You must be 18 years of age or older (or the legal gambling age in your jurisdiction) to participate in online casino gaming in the UK. All licensed operators are required to verify your age before you can play. If you are under 18, please do not attempt to gamble.

Warning Signs of Problem Gambling

If you recognise any of the following signs, you may be developing a gambling problem:

• Gambling with money you cannot afford to lose
• Chasing losses by gambling more to recover money lost
• Spending more time and money on gambling than intended
• Neglecting family, work, or social responsibilities due to gambling
• Hiding gambling activity from friends or family
• Borrowing money to gamble or pay gambling debts
• Experiencing anxiety, stress, or depression related to gambling
• Unsuccessful attempts to cut back or stop gambling
• Using gambling to escape problems or difficult emotions
• Lying about the amount of time or money spent gambling

If any of these apply to you, help is available and seeking support is a sign of strength, not weakness.

Self-Help Tools & Safer Gambling Features

Most licensed UK casinos offer the following tools to help you maintain control:

• Deposit Limits: Set a maximum amount you can deposit within a specified timeframe (daily, weekly, or monthly)
• Loss Limits: Set a maximum amount you're willing to lose in a given period
• Session Limits: Restrict the amount of time you spend gambling in one session
• Reality Checks: Receive regular reminders during your gaming session about how long you've been playing and how much you've spent
• Self-Exclusion: Take a break from gambling for a period you choose (typically 6 months to 5 years)

Use these tools proactively to protect yourself and maintain responsible gaming habits.
