Responsible use

Age and legality

Do not use gambling products if you are under 18. In many places the minimum age is higher. Do not use them where they are illegal for you. Bangladesh's Public Gambling Act, 1867 restricts public gambling. Other countries have their own rules, including rules about online services based abroad. CV66 cannot tell you that a particular operator is lawful, and it does not offer a way to place a bet.

Signs that gambling is no longer entertainment

• Chasing a loss with a larger stake, or with money set aside for rent, food, or debt.
• Hiding the activity from people you live with.
• Feeling unable to leave a session, or irritable when you try.
• Borrowing, selling things, or using a credit line to continue.
• Believing a bonus, a system, or a hot streak will repair earlier losses.

Any one of those is a reason to stop and talk to someone who is not selling the product. Stopping is harder when the product is on a phone that stays in the room. Logging out is not the same as removing the app or asking the operator for a self-exclusion. Those are separate steps, and only the operator can apply its own exclusion tools.

What this website can and cannot do

We can explain the risks and point to independent help. We cannot close an account opened with another company, set a deposit limit on another company, or block other websites on your device. Signing in on CV66 does not create a balance, so there is no gambling account here to suspend.

Independent help

These organisations are not part of CV66. They are based outside many readers' countries, and a local service may suit you better. We do not have a verified local helpline to publish, so none is invented here.

• GamCare offers information and support related to gambling harm.
• GambleAware publishes information and treatment routes, mainly for Great Britain.
• Gamblers Anonymous is a fellowship for people who want to stop gambling.

If you are in immediate danger, contact local emergency services rather than this contact form.
