A block that works
I've Been using gamblock off and on now for about 10 years and it used to be a complete ball ache to set up but now they have got a set up that's so easy to use. I did have an issue once the software was installed but they sorted it within a day and now all is working smoothly. This is genuinely the only gambling software block out there that doesn't have a way around it.

A Company That Cares
Thank you for listening and caring enough to take action to fix the problem. Your product benefits many people and has the potential to help so many more who suffer from a gambling addiction. Many companies would have ignored my comments. The fact that you didn't, changes my rating of you from one to five stars.
I still need to get Gam Block on my PC and will provide feedback not criticism should I encounter any problems. Thank you.

Hello Douglas,
I am sorry to hear about your experience.
We're building a new browser to resolve the browsing issue on your device. It's taking a little longer than we hoped as we need to build it around the principle of GamBlock® not being circumvented. In other words, we do not beta test on vulnerable people, which means it can sometimes take longer for testing to take place.
We will restart your protection period once our new browser is available.
People contact support and let us know what non-gambling apps are not updating correctly and we will expedite the issue.

GamBlock®

I work with students and schools. A lot of students are gambling, even in class. We tried a few products. GamBlock actually works, even for the most technically inclined students. I waited a few weks before writing a review, just to be sure.

Do you want a software that destroys…
Do you want a software that destroys Samsung devices, but you can still play as before?
Then this program is for you. You can play as before you installed gamblock.
At the same time, you lose many important functions on your mobile phone, such as, for example, you no longer have the opportunity to use your online bank, you cannot buy tickets for the bus and you cannot use the application that bus companies have, you cannot use websites that require two-step verification, you can't use the program to prove you're human, you won't get your bills or rent paid, all new functions Samsung Galaxy s24 has will be lost, you'll lose access to Samsung applications that your mobile phone had when you bought it, you lose Samsung AI and the Samsung browser, then you lose the ability to use Spotify, you lose the ability to use most of the online stores you are used to using, you cannot order takeaway, you do not get access to public digital solutions, and many many more errors and omissions.
I have written and documented both with pictures and films these problems to gamblock, and I have written several hundred e-mails. You will only be told to update the gamblock browser and restart the device, which is the standard response to most inquiries.
I have given gamblock customer service remote access to mine with the program splashtop sos, gamblock was also then unable to fix these errors and problems with the gamblock software.
You can still play at any casino you did before downloading gamblock.
They have now had 32 days to repair the problems the gamblock browser causes, but they have not been able to fix it.
They refuse to give a refund and remove the software, on the basis that they will help you stop playing.
But it is almost only possible to play after you have downloaded gamblock.
If you are also unlucky enough to be a student, you will lose access to your student ID card and the opportunity to submit your exam via online solutions that your university has.
No matter how big a problem you have with gambling, you should in no way download this program, as it will only destroy your digital existence and you will still lose money gambling.

Hello Hans,
There was an issue with our browser not rendering some sites. However, we did provide you with a backup method during that time.
Our team has worked closely with you, providing detailed support and troubleshooting, including remote access sessions to address the unique issues you described. GamBlock® is specifically designed to prevent access to gambling sites, and it is effective on Samsung devices.
Our software does not block essential functions like banking apps, Spotify, digital ID, or other apps, unless they include elements directly related to gambling. If you work with us, we can configure any apps for their intended purpose, minus gambling. Additionally, we offer continued improvements and support to our browser and blocking features based on people's requests.
GamBlock® cannot be removed if our instructions are followed.
It is very hard to provide support while you accuse us of being scammers. GamBlock® is not a scam. If you have any doubts as to our integrity, you may wish to contact ASWexler@aol.com at http://aswexler.com . Arnie Wexler gave up gambling in 1968 and has been helping people harmed by gambling ever since.
I would like to suggest that we start again. If you let us help you, we can complete installation, block your Samsung from gambling and you will be able to use multi-purpose apps, minus gambling.
Our only wish is to help you.
Regards,
GamBlock®

Hello Jeanette,
I am very sorry to hear about your situation.
I noticed that you only contacted support after your protection period had ended. If you had contacted us during your protection period, we could have helped you.
Searching on Android is conducted via the GamBlock® Browser. We could have connected to your device and helped you with that.
QR code apps can be used. If there was one you needed help with, we would have made sure that you could have used it.
The only time we ask for $20 is when our instructions are completely ignored and extra work is required to remove GamBlock®, for example when much time has passed, and the product or environment has dramatically changed. That is not the case here. I have looked through your correspondence with my colleagues and cannot find any mention of $20.
I would like to suggest you let us show you how the apps you mentioned can be accessed.
Our only wish is to help you.

GamBlock®

Hello Lisa,
I'm sorry to hear about this.
Our website states, before purchase, that unlike Samsung and Windows, Apple devices require a factory reset. However, you only need to back up your data on iCloud or another location and restore it after you're blocked from gambling.
Installation is easy as we do it all for you.
I strongly recommend you backup your data and let us block gambling on your device.
We look forward to helping you.

GamBlock®

I would be extremely careful of this company, they tricked me into downloaded extra software which gave them full control of my phone. It include setting and changing passwords. I felt so uncomfortable with it i took it to Samsung who told me to report to the Police as even they could not remove it.
I've had to buy a new phone and even now they still won't remove the software,so the old device had to go in the bin.
If anyone would like to see the hundreds of email between gamblcok and myself, please email me.
Reply to Gamblock: when a company abuses power, blocks and deleted banking apps etc and leaves you with no access to money and food, I think calling you useless etc is justified!
Even now, a month on you still have your illegal software on my old phone costing me further money!
Also, you offer no protection as the app continually fails.
You should maybe get some software experts in to fix your app rather than get so defensive.

Hello Michael,
You were abusive to my colleagues. Therefore, your communications were sent to our Customer Service Officer. After some time, you requested to go back to general support and agreed to treat my colleagues with respect. Unfortunately, you were abusive again.
I do not tolerate abuse of my colleagues.
You made many complaints and demanded we increase your level of restriction and so we did so. We do not remove GamBlock® during a proection period.
I have looked through your many emails with my colleagues and strongly recommend you discuss them with Arnie Wexler \ https://aswexler.com/ .
We will continue protecting you.

It is actually so bad
It is actually so bad. My laptop kept shutting down after 2 minutes . I couldn't do anything on it. I contacted support who they asked me to do certain things or mirror my laptop which was impossible given that i have only 2 minutes each time my laptop is on.
Now my laptop won't login, won't recognize my face. I lost the access to it. I can't do anything about it, not even the recovery mode can be used as laptop will restart. I want to contact a sollicitor to sue them as their software damage completely my laptop. Support is pointless and i need that laptop for my business but now its all gone. Are they going to refund me the money to get a new laptop?
Stay away.
