Hi Givemestrength,

You are supposed to declare any gambling losses incurred within the last two years. However, if it's only a couple of quid here and there, there's no need!

Hi Givemestrength,

I sincerely doubt this will even be on the OR's radar. This question is more aimed at those who have lost £000,s so don't worry!

Hi,

I spent £867.00 according to my Betfair account over a year which I "truthfully" showed on the BR application.

Didn't want to get egg on my face if the OR found out.

Hi Matt,

I would definitely declare the £867 which will probably result in a stern telling off, but I doubt it would warrant a BRO/BRU.
