A senior citizen has had her membership to bingo club Mecca cancelled and has been barred from all 100 clubs, simply because she visited a rival bingo hall with friends.
Rosalyn Clemson, 76, was slapped with the "Anti Social Bingo Order" because she broke Mecca's strict membership rules about playing at other halls.
Mecca claims she arranged a total of three outings at Club 2000 Bingo which is 15 miles away.
Rosalyn, of Chester told The Sun: "The way Mecca reacted you would think I was some kind of spy or traitor. It's like they want to own us body and soul. It's so unfair - I did not even know about the rule they say I have broken. They have taken away everything I love."
The retired nurse has been a keen bingo player since 1956. Her and husband Frank, 73, who was also barred, had been playing in the Mecca opposite their home for years. Frank said: "It's very upsetting for Rosalyn. It is playing on her mind all the time."
A spokesman for Mecca said: "We can confirm that Mrs Clemson and her husband are not welcome in Mecca clubs. I must stress that we do not take the decision to bar people lightly."
He also said that Rosalyn had acted "aggressively" towards one of their duty managers.

Headmistress's saucy snaps hacked by pupils
A headmistress has been left red-faced after pupils managed to swipe kinky pictures of her in her underwear and circulate them around the school.
Sue Brearley of Whitecross School in Lydney, Gloucester is said to have told colleagues the pictures were taken on her mobile then downloaded onto her school laptop, reports the Daily Mirror.
Unfortunately for her, it was logged into the school network and two pupils managed to get access to them and pass them around to fellow pupils.
Police were called in as the personal material was treated as stolen. Her fiancé, David Gaston, who was the school's previous headmaster said: "We believe the photos were stolen. They are private."
A spokesman for the Gloucestershire County Council said: "As far as Sue is concerned the photos were stolen. They are just of Sue, not both of them, and show her in her underwear and are not of a pornographic nature."
He continued: "She will not face disciplinary action. Two boys, one of whom is over 16 have been spoken to by police."
