Dealing with ISP block on Gambling websites

[Welsh]

but quickly realized that it was actually blocked by my ISP.

Ah, so the war has began on anything Bitcoin related now. I hate how much power ISP's have. They don't have any right in my opinion to censor what you can view. Obviously, they're a private company so they can make their own policies, and you sign up to them. However, it's still wrong.

They don't ban other fiat trading gambling related websites, so they shouldn't with Bitcoin trading ones. As others have said a simple VPN will fix this. You could have problems with the site themselves if they don't allow VPNs. Alternatively, you can use your phone connection, those usually aren't blocked, unless the company providing your contract has done so, in my experience they've only ever had parental controls, rather than blocking websites.

My suggestion is to use a proxy and buy a VPN premium plan for a dedicated IP address. If you use public free VPN company services, most likely the IP addresses were used by other users for different purposes. So you will face with potential ban due to dark history of VPN IP address.  Buy a VPN subscription and bypass block by ISP. BTW, did you talk to ISP and asked why the websites are blocked? If gambling is not legal on your country, this should be done by government.

If the problem is from ISP then I'm pretty much sure they also Blocked the VPN services. This is really annoying when I'm playing to ISP they blocked me to access my favorite sites.

Some day ago something like this happened to me, I can't connect to my local torrent server to download movie, they blocked it. when I make a phone call to my ISP provider they told me due to high traffic they blocked some pages randomly. After requesting thousands of times they gave me access to my favorite server for a couple of hours. The next day I immediately changed my ISP and registered for a new provider to avoid such unpleasant situations.

How should I deal with such an issue? I certainly thought of using a VPN, but I only have a free one, meaning that it could easily be used by another person on the website simultaneously, which could potentially lead to a ban. Stake and Fortunejack are also banned, after making a few guesses, Roobet still works fine.

Check the TOS of the casinos, if they allow the use of VPN as long as you are not creating multiple accounts, they can easily trace it through IP browser and other data or better contact the casino and explain your issue if they allow you and you encounter a VPN issue, you can show part of the conversation that they allow you to use a VPN, but it's better to choose other casinos that you can access, this is to prevent future issues on your account.
It's better to play having peace of mind.

Why not see if your country is allowed to use the casino first while checking the TOS? Usage of VPN will not solve the issue if you're from a banned region. You may be able to play temporarily using that method but you'll eventually get into trouble once the casino finds out you're violating their TOS.

At most cases, most ISPs are not blocking the use of the VPN service. That's the purpose of using VPN in the first place. Just a little tweak then VPN should run smoothly. Even in the office, anyone can use VPN as long as users can find a way to install the program on their respective work station.

ISP banning gambling sites are not common on several countries unless the country has a strong stand against gambling and treating it as illegal.

From what country you from?

There are two reasons your country blocking the gambling site or the gambling site blocking your country, our country is very liberal on online casinos and gaming sites but I still find casinos blocking my country, so it's really two way, don't force your way in, it might complicate things in the future with so many online casinos with the best ones accepting the majority of the countries, you'll always have a choice where to play.

Hello there,
I tried accessing TrustDice today, which is one of the first cryptocurrency casino's I've been introduced into, but it wouldn't load, claiming that "Connection is not private". I thought something was fishy at the moment, but quickly realized that it was actually blocked by my ISP.

If the casino provides services to your region/country, then it would be safe to use a VPN. If there is an option to verify your account, then verify your account first. This way the chance of getting banned is almost zero, as long as you aren't doing some fishy stuffs.
Contact support and let them know that you will be using a VPN and explain the reason. Let them know your account is verified and they will highly likely whitelist your account.

if you do not violate the gambling site it is possible that the ISP blocked the gambling site, if you operate it on a pc device, try trying other options on a smartphone.  if the results are the same of course the last resort you have to subscribe to a VPN. 
You don't need to worry because there are many VPNs that can only be accessed by yourself

[coin-investor]

If you have doubt then don't there are a risk in using a free VPN, you can use a VPN that offers a free one-week or month trial if you are that serious about accessing the site using a VPN if there are other ISP in your country try to access that using other ISP in your country maybe it's your own ISP is blocking it or the gambling casino is now banning your country, but once you access is cautious with depositing and playing.

Most gambling sites are indeed blocked by local ISPs. in my place is also the same, many are blocked only a few may pass. using a VPN can be a solution even though it is also risky, or changing to Google DNS without using a VPN. I usually use the VPN App provided by the antivirus I use, so it's a bit more premium. Using a free VPN is fine as long as you know the risks.

It depends on the regulation/law related to gambling where do you live. There are many countries where gambling is not something against the law but there are also some countries where gambling is considered as a crime. Using free VPN is not fine if you are an active regular gambler, it is not recommended as it may make your account suspected to be abusing the casino's rule especially related to multi accounts. There is no good reason to use free VPN, it is better to spend some more money to buy premium VPN.

[LUCKMCFLY]

You're right, the solution to this is to have a good VPN, I've seen a couple of casinos that accept the use of VPN, I don't see anything wrong with it if you play and don't cheat in any way,

While this is true and valid, if the VPN was used to access at restricted and prohibited regions by the gambling site, that will subject to violating the terms.

 The use of VPN should be fine as long as it was accessed at allowed regions. The use of VPN is already very common and it was allow by the gambling site at most of the cases as long as, as you have mentioned, not to cheat or do something unusual.

Privacy and anonymity is the only reason why we should used VPN and not the other way around which involves fraud-related schemes.

Well, that's an important point, what happens is that we currently have many help tools to be able to guarantee enjoyment, and like everything else, any computer tool or thing that can help can be used to do bad things, that's why it's difficult control that they can do it for bad things, in fact for me in my personal opinion I suppose that in the very near future most casinos and bookmakers will have to accept players who can enter the sites using VPN, and perhaps the licenses they will not have the same weight of importance that they have now. Of course this is just what I think can happen.

That's right. Using a free VPN on a gambling site that prohibits citizens of your country to use its services, you risk very quickly to get on the list of suspicion. After all, there is a possibility that another user of this gambling site using the same free VPN after some time to come from the IP address that you used. You will have to confirm your identity and most likely to part with your account as you violate the rules of using the services provided.

That would be a good move as that will allow far more players to join these casinos even from jurisdictions that are currently not allowed to gamble.This is also a double edge sword as by using VPN services not all people are the most honest in the world so there is room for abusing bonuses,referral commission and so on.The IT team of the casino should be pretty alert and should monitor the activities coming from users that use VPN in much more detail than users who do not use VPN-s,because VPN-s add a layer of complexity for the IT team to check on.

I prefer to change the DNS on the computer that can help us visit gambling sites because we don't need to install any software on our laptops or computers. Before you use a VPN, it is better first to ask the token's location so that the use of the VPN will be more private. But I do not recommend using a free VPN where we may be indirectly connected.

If we're only want to visit the gambling sites, then either DNS, free VPN, or premium VPN are doesn't matter since we aren't gamble and using the sites. If he want to play in the casino, then either DNS or premium VPN can be choice, even though there's a risk about it. But it's what it's if he really want to gamble, we can't stop him. AFAIK the most safest DNS is Cloudflare and OpenDNS.

So it will depend on what we want to do when visiting the casino. But it would be better if we replaced it from the start so we don't have to bother changing DNS or premium VPN anymore. In addition, we can register immediately if it is a new casino site or play immediately if we already have an account at the casino. But please make sure in advance if the casino allows VPN use because some casinos don't and some allow it. Maybe for the terms of using a VPN, we must visit the casino site and log in with our real IP so that the casino can see the machine number on our device.

I rarely find casino sites that apply restrictions on the use of VPS and DNS, all terms and conditions are only limited based on the list of countries that are not allowed, all countries that are allowed can be accessed directly without VPN and DNS but it depends on the ISP of each country. So if you are an active gambler then it is better to subscribe to premium VPN and DNS to avoid suspicion while evaluating user data by casino site admins.

Maybe for unrestricted use of DNS but I don't know if it's a VPN because if someone can win a lot of money from various games, they can be asked to verify their account and the casino will ask about the VPN they are using. Somehow, the casino can tell if someone is using a VPN or is using their real IP. Therefore, it is better to be careful when using a VPN for gambling and make sure that the casino allows the use of a VPN. Even if we are not active gambler, it is better if we subscribe to a VPN to avoid tracking from hackers who want to know our location.
