Last updated: June 2026 — Andrew Pemberton, Coastlinecare
At Coastlinecare, we believe that gambling should always be an enjoyable and entertaining activity. Andrew Pemberton and the entire Coastlinecare team are genuinely committed to player safety and well-being. While we review and cover non-UK casinos available to players in Great Britain, we recognise that access to fewer restrictions must come hand in hand with greater personal responsibility. This page exists because we care — not as a legal formality, but as a core part of who we are.
If gambling stops being fun and starts causing stress, financial worry, or relationship problems, it is time to pause and seek support. You are not alone, and help is always available.
Problem gambling can affect anyone, regardless of age, income, or background. It often develops gradually, making it difficult to recognise in yourself or someone you love. Being aware of the warning signs is the first and most important step.
Ask yourself the following questions honestly. If you answer yes to two or more, we strongly encourage you to reach out to one of the support organisations listed below.
Most reputable non-UK casinos we review offer a range of tools to help you stay in control. We actively encourage players to use these features before any problem develops, not after.
Set a daily, weekly, or monthly cap on how much money you deposit into your casino account. This is one of the most effective ways to keep your spending in check. Most non-UK casinos allow you to set these limits directly within your account settings.
Reality check reminders send you a notification after a set period of play, reminding you how long you have been gambling and how much you have spent. These prompts help you make conscious, informed decisions rather than playing on autopilot.
If you feel your gambling is getting out of hand, a cooling-off period allows you to temporarily suspend your account — typically for 24 hours, one week, or one month. This gives you space to reflect without permanently closing your account.
Self-exclusion is a formal commitment to stop gambling for a defined period or permanently. If you are based in Great Britain, you can register with GAMSTOP (gamstop.co.uk), the national self-exclusion scheme. Please note that GAMSTOP covers UK-licensed operators. For non-UK casinos, you should contact each operator directly to request self-exclusion. Coastlinecare encourages you to use every tool available to protect yourself.
You do not have to face gambling problems alone. The following organisations provide free, confidential support to anyone affected by gambling harm in Great Britain and beyond.
Coastlinecare operates a strict 18+ only policy. All content on this website is intended solely for adults of legal gambling age. We do not condone underage gambling in any form. If you are a parent or guardian, we recommend using parental control tools such as Gamban or Net Nanny to prevent minors from accessing gambling content online.
Gambling is a form of entertainment, and for most people it stays that way. However, we understand that for some, it can become a serious problem. Andrew Pemberton and the Coastlinecare team are here to provide honest, responsible information — and that includes making sure every visitor to this site knows where to turn if they need help. Please gamble responsibly, set your limits, and never hesitate to reach out for support.
