I agree with what everyone is saying debts SHOULD be honored, but the post says outstanding bets under £20 do not need to be settled, obviously Kev doesn’t say if that’s a temporary measure and that you have to pay at a later date(which obviously he will), but I do find it a bit strange when bookies are chasing people for 15 quid, I thought they were more honourable and understanding
Sure they are?
I’ve had a pony in a William Hill account for more than 10 years, and never heard a word from them.
Don’t pay them, how many times do punters get ripped off by the scum. It’s amazing the number of horses that dump the jockey and bolt yet end up very well backed.
the old condition that stipulated gambling debts cannot be dealt with through the rule of law. Is that still the case ?
Either way, as mentioned earlier, to protect your credit rating – although being out of work isn’t going to help that – you should pay up.
Good luck whichever you opt for.

I’m pretty sure the Gambling Act 2005 put paid to that. Gambling debts (and all matters gambling) are now covered by law.
