WARNING RE VPN AND CHANGING INTERNET PROVIDERS AFTER YOU HAVE BETBLOCKER

Hi just to let you know that to solve the problem of not being able to access my fresh home broadband wi fi which is Virgin media I have had to factory reset my phone as the BetBlocker VPN would not let me access my home and other household wi fi s Pror to factory resetting my phone I did what the technician from Betblocker suggested but this didn t work BetBlocker need to take into account that when individuals instal BetBlocker on their phone that they may change internet provider and that therefore they will need access to that providers VPN as well as the VPN in other locations The product has not been fit for purpose due to this I have not got BetBlocker reinstalled on my phone and will not be reinstalling it The product needs to take into consideration the problems it can cause for people I did not want to uninstall BetBlocker so that I could gamble again I just wanted to be able to use the wifi provided by my new provider and to access wi fi hot spots in other locations I ended up spending 20 to buy mobile data from giff gaff in order for me to access the internet on my mobile at home and in hot spots I actually would like compensation for the trouble BetBlocker has caused me I hope you will take the above comments onboard I will also try to post the above to BetBlockers site

It is a disaster Don t risk it

It is a disaster Installed it Set it up for 24 hours period It didn t block half of gambling sites Contacted support Every 4 days they may reply and say sent us a screenshot we will investigate 3 weeks later is is still blocking stuff and I can t even access paid blocking filter apps - AS THEY ARE BLOCKED And nothing I can do It s on my laptop Even I uninstalled it it still blocks 3 weeks later I reinstalled so their support could try to fix it I feel bad criticizing them as it s free and they are a charity but it s dangerous help when they don t have the skills time or resources to help people in sometimes suicidal states But if you have gambling problem just try a paid version It s not worth saving 50 when it doesn t work I have lost 5k in last 3 weeks so I feel super low and this has just made my life worse I just want it gone so I can download and install something that works but so far they have not helped me

Not Useful

It s great that it s free but thats as far as it goes There are very few gambling sites that it actually prevents from being loaded I ve sent a long list of sites that aren t blocked to admin and they ve told me they updated their list and to keep on writing them if I find more I m still able to access all of those sites There are quite a few sites that have nothing to do with gambling that this app is blocking You re mission is fantastic but it is apparent the team involved with this app are out of their league This is essentially a massive firewall that cannot be altered by the end user or admin If gambling is a problem for you self exclude directly from the sites and pay for an app to lock you out if needs be This app will not help you

Ruined my phone

Whilst it obviously helps with blocking gambling sites and is free the damage it has done to my phone whilst logged onto WiFi is nothing short of disgraceful I use my phone for work and it is not basically useless

Don t For your sanity just don t

Don t Just don t Worst piece of crap I have had the misfortune to come across When I was downloading it Kaspersky flagged it as having errors e g not compatible with Win 10 etc And let s not forget about the trojan that BetBlocker tried to download I stopped the install and Kaspersky quarantined the rubbish from this app I didn t even get as far as telling BetBlocker how long I wanted it in place for or anything But guess what it is still in hiding somewhere on my PC and has totally effed it all up as some sites I can access and many which have nothing to do with gambling I can t Even the restore point doesn t work due to this crap So if you want to suffer the torture of the damned go ahead install BetBlocker But you will regret it I promise you
