Responsible Gaming
Our Commitment to Safe Gaming
At County Construction Ltd, we are committed to promoting responsible gambling practices. Gambling should be enjoyed as entertainment only, never as a way to earn money or solve financial problems. We encourage all players to gamble within their means and to seek help if they feel their gambling has become problematic.
Age Verification
All UK betting sites, including those we affiliate with, are required by law to verify that users are at least 18 years old before allowing them to gamble. It is illegal for anyone under 18 to place bets in the United Kingdom. If you are under 18, please do not attempt to register or gamble on any betting site.
Warning Signs of Problem Gambling
Problem gambling can develop quickly and affect your finances, relationships, and mental health. Please be honest with yourself and check if you experience any of the following warning signs:
- Gambling with money you cannot afford to lose
- Chasing losses by gambling more to recover money lost
- Hiding your gambling activities from family, friends, or partners
- Gambling for longer periods or with larger amounts than intended
- Experiencing anxiety, stress, or guilt related to your gambling
- Neglecting work, education, hobbies, or family responsibilities due to gambling
- Borrowing money to fund your gambling habit
- Feeling irritable or anxious when you cannot gamble
- Failed attempts to reduce or control your gambling
- Using gambling as an escape from problems or negative feelings
If you recognize any of these signs in your behaviour, it may be time to take action and seek support.
Self-Help Tools & Safer Gambling Features
Most reputable betting sites offer tools to help you maintain control of your gambling. These tools include:
- Deposit Limits: Set a maximum amount you can deposit within a specified period (daily, weekly, or monthly)
- Loss Limits: Restrict the amount you are willing to lose during a set timeframe
- Bet Limits: Cap the maximum stake you can place on individual bets
- Reality Checks: Receive pop-up reminders of how long you have been gambling and how much you have spent
- Session Time Limits: Set an automatic logout after a certain period of gambling activity
- Self-Exclusion: Voluntarily ban yourself from a betting site for a period you choose (typically 6 months to 5 years)
We recommend using these tools proactively to keep your gambling safe and enjoyable.
