Help Advice Needed!!

As most of you are probably aware, I had a gambling problem, Im 110 percent sure i have overcome this, not so much as a lottery ticket since 29/07! However the very reason i got into online bingo is it was recommended by my cousin, shes still doing it!!!!!!! i hate to see her waste her money like i did but shes worse than i ever was - ive watched her lose 250 quid in 2 hours. i really want to help her but dont know how to do it, advice anyone???

    Maybe you could bring into the conversation how you've stopped, and why? She may be able to afford it, but on the other hand, she may be getting in a mess.....
  • Yeah,

    There is a great site called;

    playandwin.co.uk

    It's a good bingo game, you play for points/tickets then when you have enough buy tickets to the cash fund at the end of the week.

    It's free, has very good banter, and you can win over £1,000 for nothing....................
  • Thanks guys, trouble is i know she cant afford it, thats why shes playing, constantly thinking the next massive win is just around the corner... i will give that site a try ibleed, if only i had known about it b4 lol xxx
