So since one of my sites changed bingo software they set up net deposit limits of £250 a month automatically (I assume for everyone), without even informing me (I know you can easily find it on the site but still it would've been nice to be told this would happen)-I expect to some £250 sounds like a large amount and to others a very small amount. Personally for me that is quite a small amount to last a month-all my other sites have much higher monthly limits imposed like £1k or more. I only kept that site open to play slots on now since I don't like their new bingo so I might just close it. I don't drink I don't take drugs I don't spend a lot on clothes etc. but I don't expect to have to go through this all with a third party to decide what I can spend gambling.
I can't believe someone actually came up with this idea and got some sites to implement it, I thought we all had a legal right to a private life (something like that anyway) and imo this violates that. I don't want limits the same every month-people spend different amounts every month, or want to spend more on a site one month due to a certain promo or whatever. I can go one month and barely gamble at all and then if I have the funds (and only then) can I spend significantly more. I can set my own limits and change that whenever I want. I don't need a blanket £250 net deposit limit a month imposed. I said earlier I was ok with some limits, and I needed them to a certain extent but £250 per month is getting suspiciously like the £100 a month was it(?) the UKGC were suggesting a while back-which I believe was supposed to have been thrown out. And which most agreed was incredibly low.
It's getting worrying, this net deposit thing-I suppose some could find a way round it and if you get a good win just use your winnings to play with all month, but one bad streak and you're done for the whole month. And I bet they'd just love you to end up keeping funds in your account and spending all that knowing you can't deposit again for ages. Jokes on them though because I'll just play on my other sites instead.
Of course I could increase the limit, if I provided SOW-they require one of these documents before they will look into increasing your limit-
A copy of your most recent payslip
A copy of your most recent bank statement clearly showing available funds
If you are self-employed, a copy of any documentation to evidence your current earnings
Income from investments/other income-A copy of any documentation to prove the receipt of other sources of current income such as the sale of shares, an inheritance or the sale of a property
I wonder if previous winnings comes under "other income"-probably not! Of course you could send one of these documents in, hell you could send all of them in and STILL they say you can't afford it, in their opinion.
