World Cup e-cigarette fines refund program by UK website
Website promises to reimburse fines for e-cigarette use during World Cup in Qatar.

A UK website has pledged a pilot program this year to reimburse fines incurred for vaping during the World Cup. Those fined for vaping will be able to claim back the fine through this program.


The following is the complete article from the website:


The World Cup is underway. Since 2014, e-cigarettes have been banned in Qatar.


If you are caught using an electronic cigarette at the World Cup, you could face a fine of up to 10,000 riyals (approximately £2,200) or a maximum of three months imprisonment.


Harry Kane's red card or England's defeat in a penalty shootout (again!) may be tempting enough for any former smoker to fall back into the habit, but we want to help you stay strong and stick to the risk-free option of e-cigarettes. After all, the UK public health agencies have deemed it the best way to quit smoking.


Thanks to our pilot program for repaying fines at this year's World Cup, we can provide assurance for those affected by the strict crackdown on electronic cigarettes outside of Gulf countries.


Additionally, the website features icons depicting the bans on smoking and LGBT in Qatar.
