EVERYONE MUST DO THIS RIGHT NOW!
WE CANNOT MOVE FORWARD WITHOUT COMPLETING THIS TASK!
1. Email [email protected] only writing in the subject line.
2. Write your MPs name followed by the status of your letters/meetings with them using shorthand (examples below).
Good afternoon,
We are now at the stage where everyone needs to write to their MP demanding redress for the failure of the Gambling Commission and FCA in relation to the FI scandal.

Do we really live in a country where it’s ok to take customer stakes, funnel them up to a holding company to spend on a completely different project for other markets, knowing this cash was needed to pay liabilities on those bets? That’s what #FootballIndex collapsing has exposed
The responsibility of a punter is to assess whether they can afford to lose their stake if their bet loses.
It is NOT their responsibility to audit the viability of the bookmaker they're placing the bet with.
How hard is that to understand @andrewjonrhodes?

We have been receiving a steady stream of letters in the past few days. Thank you to everyone has sent one so far. If you have not done so yet, please ensure you send us your letter before Friday at 10pm. The more we can send, the more it will help our cause. Thank you.
I lost literally my whole life savings to football index at no fault of my own. Most of my bets had at least two years left. Does it take for a suicide for anyone to care 😣 @andrewjonrhodes @GamRegGB#footballindex
6-months since the collapse of #FootballIndex and still no nearer to retrieving the money that was STOLEN from myself and thousands of other customers
I've never been conned in my life so to have this scam approved by the gambling commission still shocks me to this day!
£13k STOLEN by #footballindex all whilst under the watch and under investigation for over a year by the GC! Their job is to protect customers where and how did they protect me as I had my entire life savings stolen? How can £124m of open bets be stolen under your watch?
£21,000 stolen. My bet didn't lose. It is voided. I won't go quietly into the night and neither will thousands more. I expect full redress and punishment for those involved. #footballindex@OliverDowden@DCMS@BorisJohnson@10DowningStreet @GRHAPPG
My first time putting in writing. £124m lost/stolen by #footballindex and £36,000 of that was mine.
Life hasn’t been the same since. I placed those bets because FI was a regulated gambling company. It became a Ponzi scheme under the watch of the UK Gambling Commission
Over £70k of winning OPEN bets stolen from me by #footballindex Devastating value of money to have stolen. Very depressing, and hard to accept! All whilst the gambling commission had FI under investigation and did nothing
@OliverDowden@NadineDorries@GamRegGB @GRHAPPG
I’ve had £16,000 stolen by #footballindex
I wasn’t previously a gambler. The concept appealed to me and I felt reassured that it was regulated by @GamRegGB@OliverDowden
Many customers have been scammed. This needs fixing. We deserve answers and redress.
£12,000 of my hard earned cash stolen by #footballindex all under regulation AND investigation from @GamRegGB. Lives ruined on their watch. This wasn’t a “bad bet” - it was a scam. We didn’t lose the bet, the stakes were stolen. Justice will prevail. @NadineDorries@OliverDowden
