Can I ask how did you manage to get into debt with them?
Most bookmakers I know of require you to deposit first, and if you can't deposit you can't gamble.
Is that not so?

I hope you would stay safe away from gambling.

So you were able to get a line of credit for 30K? If you have it then pay up. If you don't then don't worry about it. Can't pay something you don't have. I would think 30k to a gambling outfit is not really a lot. They probably just write it off as uncollectible.
