A debit card is different from a credit card
The GB credit-card rule does not turn a debit card into a universally accepted method. Check that the cashier supports the card, that it is in your own name, and that the issuer has not declined the transaction.

What it tells you
Card type
Debit and credit have different GB gambling rules
Issuer controls
A gambling block or security rule may apply
Merchant support

Wallet route
Apple Pay or Google Pay may have separate issuer coverage

If you set a gambling block, leave it in place. For an unexplained failure, ask your bank whether it authorised the payment and ask the operator whether it received an attempt.
