Responsible Gaming

Gambling Should Be Entertainment

At alexandersedgley.co.uk, we believe that golf betting should be enjoyed as a form of entertainment only. Gambling is never a reliable way to earn money or solve financial problems. Only bet what you can afford to lose, and always gamble for fun.

Age Verification

In the United Kingdom, you must be 18 years of age or older to participate in any form of gambling, including golf betting. We are committed to preventing underage gambling and verify the age of all users. If you are under 18, please do not use our affiliated betting sites.

Warning Signs of Problem Gambling

If you experience any of the following, you may have a gambling problem. Please consider seeking help:

• Chasing losses by betting more money to recover what you've lost
• Hiding your gambling activities from friends, family, or loved ones
• Gambling with money intended for bills, rent, or essential expenses
• Spending increasing amounts of time and money on gambling
• Becoming irritable or anxious when trying to cut down on gambling
• Lying about the extent of your gambling
• Using gambling to escape problems or negative emotions
• Borrowing money to gamble
• Unable to stop or control your gambling despite wanting to
• Gambling is affecting your relationships, work, or health

Self-Help Tools & Features

Most responsible betting operators offer tools to help you stay in control:

• Deposit Limits: Set a maximum amount you can deposit within a specified time period
• Loss Limits: Set a maximum amount you're willing to lose over a given timeframe
• Reality Checks: Receive periodic reminders of how long you've been gambling and how much you've wagered
• Time-Outs: Take a break from gambling for a set period (days to weeks)
• Self-Exclusion: Permanently close your account and exclude yourself from gambling sites

We encourage you to use these tools proactively if you feel your gambling may be getting out of control.
