ElectraWorks Ltd (operating the bwin brand for which I did customer service) a £350,000 fine for repeatedly misleading consumers with adverts relating to free bonuses. GVC also received a formal warning from the Commission for failing to ensure that the person responsible for marketing at the business held a personal management licence. Richard Watson, Commission Programme Director, said: “This fine should serve a warning to all gambling businesses that we will not hesitate to take action against those who mislead consumers with bonus offers or fail to ensure they are correctly licensed.”

Yousri Amrani and Jose Luis Aznar repeatedly told us that they were collecting evidence about it and that they would publish all of it “at the right time”. When I had started with GVC/bwin, they said it was one of the reasons they were looking for other jobs, apart of Susana Martin being a bad team leader who was victimisig them with bad evaluations, sabotaging holiday requests, etc. I never found out if they indeed collected any evidence or if it was just another of their inventions to talk negatively about the company. I did not bother too much with it at that time either as I enjoyed my job and was thinking of the future career opportunities that for sure would come my way sooner or later.

The company also had weird reasons for blocking people who were winning with sports betting, their accounts were restricted so they could not place bets anymore. The Camp Two guys said that it was another rip off by GVC. I did indeed deal with several of these cases but I kept believing that as GVC had gambling licenses in several countries, including Gibraltar, there could not really be a problem and I did not give it a lot of thought.

76. Early 2018 Susana Martin had agreed with Samira Mouhayar that the Dutch/Flemish
