Aug 23 (Reuters) - Australian wagering business Tabcorp has been fined A$4.3 million ($2.89 million) for repeated breaches of gambling harm prevention laws between 2020 and 2023, the Victorian Gambling and Casino Control Commission said on Friday. Analysts at Jefferies said that the fine was imposed for misconduct including the sending of promotional materials to customers who had opted out and for inadequate employee training to mitigate gambling harm.

"Tabcorp has since taken significant steps to improve customer safety, including re-structuring the Safer Gambling Team which has led to an increase in customer interventions," the firm said, adding that it now is introducing new technology ti detect changes in customer behaviour faster. It was a bad night and I only remember fragments. By 3am, I was staggering out of one such venue, alone in the cold rain, twisted on whiskey-Coke, praying for an Uber to materialise and ferry me home.

I had been out with my friends in Shoreditch, an East London neighbourhood known for its artisanal coffee, vintage shops and warehouse raves. Such is Uber now, the ride-hailing lottery. But the app kept teasing me with phantom drivers, always a minute away but never arriving. "Tabcorp´s breaches reflect systemic operational deficiencies and non-compliance with the conditions of its licence, leading to significant harm to a customer," VGCCC chair Fran Thorn said in a statement.

Canada players have more online casinos to choose from than the Niagara falls has water. Well, maybe not that many, but if you are searching for a Canadian online casino you have a huge choice. For Canadians it's not hard to find an online casino. This can make finding a good casino difficult. Maddeningly, this left me no direct, digital path that might lead me to the thief. But the driver did take me home.

This is what I think happened: in a booze-addled stroke of genius, I had jumped into a non-app, unmarked street cab. I then saw evidence on my email that an Uber had been summoned to my doorstep just after I had gone to bed, when I was comatose. By this point I was convinced it was the cab driver. It could have been anyone's car - I was too drunk and exhausted to care. Then came the purgatory: months of waiting then more stonewalling. Both Asda and Silvertime refused to hand over the CCTV without a crime reference number, but according to the bank, no crime had been committed, so it was impossible for me to get one or, as a result, get any police support.

I went back and forth with the bank via appeals, letters and phone calls. Then the case was closed. Meanwhile, the casino assistant said they'd also get back to me after reviewing the CCTV footage.
