That is not it's purpose though to end gambling forever for problem gamblers. As we have seen there are easy ways round Gamstop, it is far from fool proof. The only way to stop fully is self exclude for life from each operator. Then with the new verification rules coming in May nobody can circumvent the process. Gamstop is a tool for everyone, not just problem gamblers.
Yes anyone can use it. But the main reason it was created was to help problem gamblers. The needing a cool of period etc. to calm gambling down as you are losing control or think you might not be able to save is still pointing towards a problem.
And i am not saying it is right. But casinos will start to look at the fact that anyone that needs to use Gamstop at all has some sort of problem with gambling. And with responsible gaming they might start deciding that it is better not to let them play at all.
