Children duped by 'loot boxes'
Just days after a damning House of Lords report, Money Box can reveal that loot boxes in some games aimed at children have win rates of as little as 0.01%. Experts are worried this could get children hooked on gambling.
The courts have ordered changes in the way income is calculated which will mean more money for thousands of people on Universal Credit.
And we hear from one listener who got his money back for a cancelled holiday through his debit card but now the company is trying to take it back.
