Keep administrative questions separate from self-exclusion

An account or balance question during self-exclusion should not become an attempt to resume gambling or bypass the exclusion.

The distinction that matters

Use the service's official administrative support channel for questions about records or an existing transaction. State that the inquiry is administrative and respect the restriction. For information about taking a break or broader support, use the official resources linked from the support page rather than another operator comparison.

A worked example

Someone needs a transaction statement after excluding themselves. The useful request is for the statement through the authorised process. Creating a second account to reach the history would introduce a different problem and undermine the exclusion's purpose.

Your next steps

  • Keep the request limited to the administrative issue.
  • Use the documented support route.
  • Do not ask for workarounds or alternative accounts.
  • Use official support resources if gambling is causing concern.

Where this answer stops

Northline does not change, shorten or override an exclusion. It does not determine a balance outcome or provide counselling. Details of a particular programme should be checked with its official provider.
