I would also contact your local trading standardsand found this on the Commissions website.

How do I complain about a gambling transaction?

All licensed operators should have a clear policy on dealing with complaints.
This policy must include the process to follow in making a complaint and it
should be readily available to you in writing.
1. Complain to the operator concerned providing as much detail as
possible. It is worth while keeping a full record of the complaint.
2. If you are not satisfied with the outcome ask the operator to provide
details of their appointed independent third party to whom you can refer
your complaint, free of charge.
Always exhaust the operator’s complaints procedure before looking at other
alternatives.
What happens if the independent third party does not find in my favour?
Normally that will be the end of the matter. The Commission is unlikely to
reopen the enquiry unless there is clear evidence that the operator has not
complied with its obligations.
However, please note that since 1 September 2007 gambling contracts have
been legally enforceable under the Gambling Act 2005. If you think you have
an actionable case against an operator you should consult a lawyer. The
Commission does not give legal advice on this or any other area.
What happens if the operator has not dealt with my complaint properly?
If you feel that an operator does not have a proper complaints procedure, you
have been “fobbed off” or the operator cannot provide details of an
independent third party, you can complain to the Commission about the
operator’s failure to operate a proper complaints process.
If the Commission thinks your complaint is reasonable then we may take this
up with the operator concerned. Such complaints may not be dealt with
immediately as the Commission may choose to record your communication
for ongoing monitoring purposes, but you can expect an acknowledgement of
your complaint within five working days.
Can the Commission help to get my money back?
Generally the answer to this question is no. The Commission has no power to
order an operator to refund stakes which have been freely placed with an
operator or put into a gaming machine.
If an individual has lost a significant sum of money this may be the catalyst for
recognising that they may have a problem with gambling. In such
circumstances the individual can ask an operator to exclude them from the
premises or website and should seek help from one of the problem gambling
organisations.
Licensed operators contact details for Great Britain
If you want to make a complaint but do not have the contact details for a
licensed operator:
• the Commission’s public register of licensed operators provides basic
details
• if the operator is a member of a Trade Association you can contact that
Trade Association for details.
If you cannot find the appropriate details then please contact the Commission.
You can contact the Gambling Commission at:
