Re: A man is suing William Hill for more than £2m

He might need the computer and the internet for work.
And he might not. It said he was a dog trainer in the original post as well. It makes perfect sense to get rid of your computer if youre losing all the money you own by using it. Id say that was priority number 1 in solving the problem regardless of any other factors.

Regardless of the whys and ifs and buts, I think people should be held responsible for their actions. I cant honestly believe if William Hill had managed to ban him he wouldnt have just spunked his money off at a different bookie hed never joined before anyway. This is just a get out clause.

It reminds me of those stories about people who tried to sue McDonalds for getting fat. The fact that William Hill provide any preventative measures at all is more than other places do such as pubs with alcoholics etc. So they shouldnt be punished for providing some level of protection rather than none.
