Will safeplay help me stay in budget?
We have a number of responsible gambling tools that can help you stay in control of how much you are spending on our bingo games. We would always recommend setting a Deposit Limit when you make your first deposit.
Don't worry if you didn't set up a Deposit Limit when you joined the site, you can set and lock one in place at any time in the safeplay section. It's important to remember to set your Deposit Limit to reflect your personal circumstances, and it can be set from as little as £10 per month.
We also have a handy tool called Stake Limits which allows you to set a maximum amount you wish to be able to stake per single game on tombola. Like Deposit Limits, you can lock your Stake Limit in place for a set period of time.
Don't forget, our safeplay advisors are available 24/7 if you want to discuss any of your options. We've also got loads more tips to help you stay in budget and it's always worth checking out the guidance on the BeGambleAware site too.
What else can I do to stay in budget?
It's not only important to remember to limit the money you spend gambling, but the time too. That's why, using our handy safeplay tool Time Keeper, you can keep track of the time you spend on tombola. Simply set your Time Keeper to either 1 hour, 2 hours, or 3 hours from the drop down menu and we'll notify you when your time has expired.
We also have a Reality Check pop up feature which lets you know when you have been playing tombola for an hour, even if you haven't set a timer with Time Keeper.
Other handy features include Game Freeze, which allows you to opt out of individual games, and Cool Off. Using Cool Off, you can temporarily exclude yourself from the site from anywhere between 24 hours and five months.
What do I do if I feel I have a problem or concern about my gambling?
Remember, if you have any concerns at all about your gambling, you are not alone and it's a good idea to reach out. There's loads of support available not only here at tombola, but over on TalkBanStop too.
Our dedicated tombola safeplay team are available for a chat 24/7 and they can be found via Live Help, email at [email protected], or by telephone on 0800 464 3411.
