You need to apply an age restriction to the account.

Call O2 to apply it Guide: Coronavirus Community Help and Support 

The best number to call on appears to be 0800 587 4005

I have no affiliation whatsoever with O2 or any subsidiary companies. Comments posted are entirely of my own opinion. This is not Customer Service so we are unable to help with account specific issues.

Sorry to hear this, but here is some additional advice:

Just to add your daughter should also contact GamStop and self exclude from the gambling sites, this will then stop her depositing money and being able to gamble.

https://www.gamstop.co.uk/

She might also want to have a look at a bank account that can block Gambling transactions, such as Monzo and Starling Bank.

Help is out there and hopefully your daughter will be able to use this to help.
