When Grant Davies went for lunch with a couple of his high-flying friends in 2009, he thought he was going to enjoy a leisurely few hours catching up.
But what he didn’t know was their conversation would spark a gambling addiction that lasted 15 years.
Grant’s friends piqued his interest when they talked about a currency trade they had made that banked them hundreds of pounds. He wondered if he could do the same.
Grant, then in his early 30s and working in financial services, went home and created an account with IG, an online trading platform.
IG is the UK’s largest trading website
