This is a non issue. Gambling corporations dont want customers or people who are gambling addicts, they are known as problem gamblers. Thereputable companies will you show the slightest concern that you might be an addict limit your account instantly or shut it down. Caulker with a history of being an gambling addict will never have a job with a reputable gambling company. I have a friend who was declined a job at bet365 as well because his account there had been shut down due to responsible gaming concerns..

He wouldn't be taking a job at a gambling company though.

He'd be talking about football on a show sponsored by a gambling company.

Bet365 haven't blocked his employment with a third party because they're responsibly worried he'll lose his money. He can do that with, or without, that particular employment.

They blocked it because it would be allowing reality to fly too close to the lie.
