William Hill Sued By Online Gambling Addict

"An online gambling addict filed a suit against UK bookmakers William Hill because he lost 2 million (123 million baht) in gambling after he asked the online bookmakers to ban him from betting with their website.”

The online gambling addict is Mr. Graham Calvert, who declared when asked why he is suing the bookmakers that “William Hill failed in its responsibility by allowing him to continue betting in spite of his requests to be excluded.”

Mr. Calvert is a 28-year-old greyhound trainer from Tyneside. He managed to spend around 7.5 million (464 million baht) on football, golf and horse racing in only 18 months.

"William Hill disputes the accusations, arguing that customers place bets of their own choice."
