Responsible Gaming

Introduction

At oxfordshire-yeoman.co.uk, we are committed to promoting responsible gaming. Casino games should be enjoyed as entertainment only, not as a way to earn money or solve financial problems. Please gamble within your means and only with money you can afford to lose.

If you ever feel that your gambling is becoming a concern, support and help are available.

Age Verification

All casino gaming is restricted to players aged 18 years or older in the United Kingdom. It is illegal for anyone under 18 to gamble on casino games.

By using our site, you confirm that you are at least 18 years of age and legally permitted to gamble in your jurisdiction.

Warning Signs of Problem Gambling

Do you recognise any of the following signs in your behaviour?

  • Gambling more frequently or with larger amounts than intended
  • Chasing losses by gambling more to recover money lost
  • Hiding or being secretive about your gambling activities
  • Gambling to escape problems, stress, or negative emotions
  • Neglecting family, friends, work, or other responsibilities due to gambling
  • Borrowing money or getting into debt to fund gambling
  • Unsuccessful attempts to reduce or stop gambling
  • Feeling anxious or irritable when unable to gamble
  • Lying to family or friends about the extent of your gambling
  • Risking relationships, employment, or important opportunities

If you recognise any of these signs, it is important to seek help as soon as possible.

Self-Help Tools & Controls

Most reputable online casinos offer a range of tools to help you gamble responsibly:

  • Deposit Limits: Set a maximum amount you are willing to deposit within a specified time period (daily, weekly, or monthly).
  • Loss Limits: Set a maximum amount you are willing to lose over a given timeframe.
  • Reality Checks: Receive regular reminders of how long you have been playing and how much you have spent.
  • Session Time Limits: Automatically log out after a set period of play.
  • Self-Exclusion: Temporarily or permanently exclude yourself from a casino or multiple casinos via GamStop (see below).
  • Account Closure: Request permanent closure of your account if you wish to stop gambling altogether.

We encourage you to make use of these tools if you feel they would help.
