Question about Gambling websites with Curaçao license using incorrect Merchant Category code (side 1.603)

Not much unfortunately. I haven’t been able to identify the actual merchant behind ZALO, London, ENG or find any reliable contact details yet.

I’m still trying to establish whether there’s any connection to Xpate or another processor. At this point I think the best lead will probably be the transaction details from the bank, especially the acquirer information and MCC. I’ll let you know if I find anything concrete.

Sounds good. I’m still waiting for more information on my side as well.

SIS Art Union is the one I’m most interested in at the moment, as I haven’t found much reliable information about it. If your bank gets back to you first, let me know what they show for the acquirer and MCC. I’ll do the same once I hear back from mine.

Definitely. So far I haven’t had a direct refund involving any of those three, but I’m still looking into the options before relying entirely on chargebacks.

If I find anyone who has successfully recovered money from Visual Mill, XOR Visual Layer or Art Solution, I’ll post how they did it and how long it took. Please do the same if you hear anything on your side.

Will do. I’m keeping track of vercs2 and tokdom separately because even transactions under the same descriptor seem to be progressing differently.

Hopefully I’ll have another result soon. If Xpate submits anything else or one of the remaining cases is closed and refunded, I’ll post an update here.

Thanks, that helps. I’ll ask my bank for the full transaction data for vercs2, tokdom, jusski6 and paypay and see whether the Xpate connection can be confirmed on my side too.

The actual merchants are the difficult part. If you manage to identify any of them or find a working email address, please post it. I’ll do the same if I find anything.

Yes, I’ve come across both vercs2 and calcal. From what I’ve been able to establish, both are connected to Xpate.

What I still haven’t managed to confirm properly is the actual merchant behind each descriptor. I’m trying to get the full transaction details from my bank, including the MCC and Acquirer ID/ICA, to see exactly how they were processed.

If I get anything more specific, I’ll post it here.

Sure, I’ll let you know if I find anything on the others. So far FOLVEX, SALDRO and PELVAN are the ones I’ve been able to connect to Xpate with some confidence.

I’m still looking into VELTOR, KREMIX, DARNIQ, QENTAR, MERVIK, NORTIQ and ZERMON. If I manage to identify the processor or find any working contact details, I’ll post them here.

My bank gave me the information when I was looking into the transactions and starting the chargeback process. That’s where I got the Xpate connection from.

Interesting that Xpate told you they’re definitely not theirs though. I’ll go back and double-check the transaction details with my bank, because if you have a written response from Xpate denying both playtwin and scudot, it would be useful to understand why the information is different.

Did you find info about wspay?

Did you find info about wspay?

Betportal closed my account a while ago with over £1200 in my balance for no reason

And you just left it?

No but they have basically stopped responding my to all contact. I deposited £150 total and so far I have £50 back. I think chasing the winnings is pointless now

The money went through wert right?

I believe one of the deposits did

Has anyone come across hilaqua please?

Hilaqua is one of my outstanding ones from about 12 months ago that I have been unable to trace. I have it showing as London - do your bank records give any indication of the address at all as happy to search more on this one?

I’m afraid I only have the name, but I think it’s processed by Domini pay if that helps (via Myatranz)

66 Paul Street, London, EC2A 4NA, London, United Kingdom

i haven’t had a chance to look into this one yet but that’s what my bank gives as the address if this helps

Any suggestions would be massively appreciated
