It’s a tough question to answer; Can the Government ban bingo sites on your pc? And, to be fair, I don’t fully know the answer, although I can provide an opinion and the facts which I am aware of.

Bingo is, by all accounts, one of the biggest forms of gambling around. This was never truer than nowadays with the implantation of the online bingo community, which is a cheaper alternative to the traditional bingo halls. With tickets on some sites starting at 1p, the bingo industry has sky rocketed to unbelievable heights and probably, so has the amount of gambling addicts in and around the UK and indeed the rest of the world.

Because bingo is a form of gambling, all sites which offer bingo should be regulated by the government under The Gaming Act 1968 with the Department of Culture stating that “cash bingo is primarily a commercial activity and is regulated by the Gaming Act 1968”.

Under UK law bingo can only take place on a licensed and registered premise, such as the traditional bingo hall, and the bingo players taking part must be on the premises at the time when the gaming takes place. This would then mean that these online bingo sites breach this fundamental statement. And, if that is the case, then you may find that the government then had the right to ban these from your computer. However, in order to counter this, many online bingo games open to UK players operate outside of the UK and therefore avoid these legislation problems.

If online bingo sites do not follow and adhere to the strict guidelines which is set out, not only by the regulatory bodies, but also the government themselves then in theory these could be banned from your PC. All websites should carry a government logo and information about where they are registered. If it does not, it is a site which should be avoided at all costs.

While the government does have measures in place which are there to assist and protect those of us who play Bingo online, they do not have the ability or the right to ban you from playing on these sites. What you will find is that if you choose to do so, and are then unfortunate to run into problems be it in trying to withdraw cash or claiming your winnings, then you may find there will be no support in place to assist you in claiming it back.

As previously mentioned, although the measures and warnings are in place, people have the right to choose. This would therefore strongly suggest that despite the laws and regulations in place the government have no power or jurisdiction, particularly in terms of online sites out-with the UK, to ban these from your PC.
