| 1479931 | 2021-08-21 10:26:00 | With Lotto only available to those with online accounts, should the sale of such be postponed until everyone has a chance to purchase a ticket. All Lotto retailers are currently closed under this Covid-19 Level 4 lockdown. Is that fair? What percentage of Lotto tickets are sold through retailers? What percentage of Lotto tickets are sold online? |

| 1479932 | 2021-08-21 20:20:00 | What are you suggesting Zippity, that someone dumb enough to spend a fortune on lotto tickets in a retail shop is too dumb to go on line to do so :) | CliveM (6007) | ||
| 1479933 | 2021-08-21 21:32:00 | Fair?? Who doesn't have access to the net these days, bugger all people. And gambling isn't exactly and essential service anyway. Lotto is a con |

| 1479936 | 2021-08-21 23:24:00 | It's easy to setup an online account. I did for last year's lockdown. | paulw (1826) | ||

Does that actually mean no one agrees with your Question. ? If People want to play Lotto they will find a way. The biggest differance is On line you have to provide your details before purchases, where as in a shop you only have to provide payment (of some description). BUT When buying anything on line you need to enter personal details, and I think places like The New Zealand Lotteries Commission would be a LOT more secure and private than some places. Online in one way is better: Have a read- Esp the part Security and Notification www.gambling.com |

| 1479938 | 2021-08-22 00:10:00 | Sadly, there are a lot of people (mainly the elderly) who cannot or do not have access to online betting. They are being discriminated against. Lotto NZ don't care a damn about them. They just want to pull in the elusive recreational dollar as fast as they can. I would like to see a reply from either Lotto NZ or Lotteries NZ - but they are too gutless to reply. |

I know tons of elderly who have variously: tablets, laptops, PCs, phones, some all of them. Even my mum has a tablet, she's 89....not that she gambles. As for the stats, go look it up, lotto do publish that info for those that care to go look. |
