    I am having the worst life ever but unless someone literally £400,000,000,000,000 it can’t be fixed. I’ll need it in cash, to end cancer, war, poverty, homelessness etc.  I am actually suffering this last two weeks having wrote my car off. Got a cheque from the insurance for an already outstanding claim that wasn’t my fault so woohoo I can get another cheap runabout. No. Because I put it in the bank and the bank lost it for 5 days. MY debit card also no longer works. I only have online paypal etc access to cash, that I haven’t got yet. Still also waiting on the funds from the 50% charity painting which may take a few days cause the chap who bought it had to have a routine op so that has delayed things. I literally spoke to him during typing this and am happy it will all come together. Right now I have about 40odd pence. If I carry on writing, you’ll all fall asleep. but short of being nearly killed and left to rot and get worse by our utterly wank system for over 20 years, I’d need a permanent GFM page just to do more than survive.

    The reality here is no one knows who is telling the truth but from the ops statement, he’s struggling to get thru study and survive, even working. I would suggest a cheaper place to stay but I also know the dam can be an expensive place to live. So I would then suggest a better job. A samsung S7 is a £140 second hand phone. Great phone, never in doubt. But the OP could easily buy an octacore brand new that does everything needed for £60-£100.

    Personally, to the person giving it away, I would sell it and send the guy £60 or something.

    Either the OP or a mod should remove OPs email address before it’s spammed to f*!k or harvested by bots. It appears to be in plain text and not obfuscated, so easy for the pesky bots

    Getting your phone stolen is really crap but “worst day ever”. Hmmmmm

    I’m sorry to the OP who feels that today is his worst day.

    I do honestly feel though that if some posters only knew what others go through on a daily basis perhaps things wouldn’t seem so bad to them anymore.

    Also the type of comments I’ve seen on here in recent days have really upset me for reasons of my own.

    I hope for the sake of this wonderful forum that people in future think about what they say before typing as I can’t be the only one on here that feels frustrated at what they read at the moment.

    Goodluck to the OP and nice one SuperLou for offering your phone!

    Tbh… When your young, losing your phone is the worst.. I’ve had personal experience here (Driving a taxi ) and believe me some people would do anything to get there phone back… I’ve been assaulted, spat on & had the police at my Taxi in the morning with the passenger waiting on me to give them the phone back that was lost down the back seat… I’ve had them at my front door.. In which I’ve had to stop parking my taxi outside my house…. These trackers are accurate, lost Phones & drunk people don’t mix well.

    Yeah yeah.. I check my taxi after every ride but I ain’t ripping seats up ??????

    I think an AGM or collection of thoughts is in need. Backinamo started as an upbeat community who could discuss/debate an array of subjects. We are now presented with a constant stream of people pleading for cash handouts.

    The Backinamo community is a generous bunch who have offered help to folk when times are tough. The problem lies in the fact that most of us are working class people who don’t have access to a reservoir of extra cash that we can offer people. We have to evaluate the forum in regards to keeping the spirit alive rather than reading posts of people asking for money. I’m going to risk a backlash but I feel most of these stories are total bullshit. I don’t want to appear as loudmouth as I know there are a lot of genuine people out there but this post has tilted me.

    Stevie I appeal once more to introduce more moderation to backinmo. I understand that the website was created in response to the YouTube banning of streamers at the time. The fact of the matter is that you are now seen as a portal where problem gambler’s can now seek help as well as a website who can offer generous joining up bonuses for new player’s

    Surely none of us can argue with that.

    Much Much Love.

    What get me mate is when someone comes on here with a problem. You put countless posts up trying to help and offering advice and I always say please keep us updated and they disappear forever. Would be nice sometimes to know what happened. If they solved the problem. Paid the rent or got a bed or whatever the problem may of been. That does make you feel a bit used when all you’ve tried to do is help.

    Thanks Haz lad. Think it’s all gone to shit now mate. I’m kinda done with it all now as the forum seems as if it’s in freefall with the guaranteed portion of freeloaders that appear daily. It’s a bitter pill to swallow as backinamo has some of the most generous kind hearted people that are always here to lend a guiding hand.

    I agree blacko but I also think that the community we regulars posters  have built up is fucking brilliant and it would be a shame to let the leaches spoil it.

    We all know the regular users and we gain great info and generally good gambling advice and stories.

    I’ve lost count of how many times your posts have made me smile and laugh especially between you and Andy.

    i can quite honestly say mate you are one of the foundation stones of this forum.

    I think sometimes I must sound anti gambling or anti online gambling. I’m not I wish I could play in moderation but I can’t. I just know that I have vast amounts of experience and rightly or wrongly if asked I will give the most honest answer. I try to share the knowledge I have accumulated over the years with people. I wish people didn’t have ulterior motives but they do. ( someone put that in the thread room 101. Think it was Mr b not sure. )  Anyway it won’t stop us doing what we do. Well I hope not.

    Based on the way this thread has gone I guess no one is going to lend me a tenner – don’t worry you will get it back because I just know Black 17 is due 🙂

    ^^This & above are good posts….

    I’m in the same boat, been gambling longer than players have lived ? seen what can happen to the salt of the earth folk when the addiction hits, so I try to give folks my expertise in addiction…Ive seen addicts Rob from the Whoever and still give to the poor, its a strange world, believe me….

    I’ve seen folks win thousands and give like £5,000 out in the casino because he won, and not blink an eye the next day when he loses it all.

    And I’ve seen people being stabbed over the turn of a card.

    So when I can I try to help the gambler in some experiences I’ve had. And what the best advice I’ve learned along the way is never chase at closing time because really the casinos/bookies never closes down as there open the next day, and gambling is a long term activity..

    Always stay within your means because there really is only 1 kind of rush & that’s winning, amounts don’t matter to me, as its only beer tokens. But winning and losing did affect my day’s.

    When gambling, treat it as a night out on the town & expect to spend at least a £100.

    And No 1 is always Pay Your Bills before anything else and that includes looking after your loved ones, as me as a gambler is very selfish, I need to tell myself this almost every hour of everyday….

    To me when people ask, I see myself as the lucky one, who has family & support, unfortunately some don’t or have burned bridge’s… Sometimes I give sometimes I don’t but I never question if/how/why as I don’t live their life. Also I never tell when I do give as that takes away my smile.❤️

    Personally I’ve never been taken for a ride, because I get the Joy out of giving. Maybe I’m old School in that, and it’s the way I like it.

    It’s the reason I post here, because the Bandit is a genuine fella and all round principaled human being. ?

    Before I start NO this isn’t a sob story but it’s really annoying me How he’s setting up a go fund me when there’s people like me who are in debt up to their eye balls with further debt coming in the next few months, can barely afford to pay rent most months and he’s setting up a go fund me for a phone ?? do people actually donate to these gofundme? I think I might need to give it a try soon!
