Hvis købmanden åbenlyst bruger falske beviser, vil jeg ikke tøve med at rapportere til den lokale politistation. Mange af betalingstjenesterne er baseret i Storbritannien, så muligheden for strafferetlig forfølgning er lovende. Giv banken referencenummeret på straffeanmeldelsen, så tager politiet sig af resten.

Du går glip af en god mulighed for at give forhandlerne langfingeren. Så mange mennesker som muligt bør anmelde forhandleren, hvis han bruger falske beviser.

Hi guys, virgin money have turned down my dispute attempt at artstrid and Finnart as "we are unable to take your claim any further as we do not hold any dispute rights for Gambling companies."

yet they aren’t gambling companies…

What did you raise under?

I first called virgin money up and told them the situation ages ago and they decided to put it through as fraud which got rejected even though I told them it wasn’t fraudulent as I did make the purchase but I recently Jsut tried to dispute is for goods not received and now they’re saying they can’t because it’s gambling related

That should also form the basis of the arguement they are not gambling companies you would think FOS would overturn that

I need some help with this is there anywhere I can chat with youV

Got it

The difficulty is if you said gambling then Mastercard issuers tend to reject it, if it was purely on goods not received no mention of gambling get the complaint raised under the fact you haven’t received digital art, challenge them on why they think it’s gambling if you didn’t mention it.

På en eller anden måde gør VISA og Mastercard en stor hemmelighed om tilbageførsler. Det er tilsyneladende op til banken at afgøre, om en tilbageførsel går igennem eller ej. I sidste ende har VISA og Mastercard indflydelse på sagen. VISA og Mastercard er også en del af skylden, systemet er gledet i hænderne på kriminelle, og det er nu meget svært at komme ud. Systemet skal revideres!

In short if ifs payment made via a debit or credit card you can chargeback, if its a bank transfer then unless the bank refunds you there is no possibility of a chargeback.

Agreed, the whole starting point is the bank visa and Mastercard will process under any code the bank pushes through.

Not about Curacao - but this is a quote directly from the Costa Rican authority for any casinos you have been on with a licence there. Any EOD SRL etc are on this list.

"One disadvantage of a Costa Rica gaming license is that, due to the lack of a legitimate license, you will not be able to accept payments from standard merchants and payment providers like Visa and MasterCard. Alternatively, you may accept cryptocurrency payments first and then add fiat money if you choose to seek a license in another country down the road."

So each payment is not only fraudulent transaction masking, but actually against the licence terms. Probably doesn't matter to these sites, wild west licence, but even then they cowboys have officially stated that they can't accept VISA or Mastercard there!

HSBC have now refused my scam claim on the basis that card payments to about 6 different countries in a day were legit sent to gambling sites,

I think I’m going to be contacting every single media outlet to highlight what has happened it’s an absolute fucking joke.

Jeg er enig. God idé at kontakte medierne. Estolio Limited virker også som en fidus for mig. De har ikke engang en kontakt nogen steder, måske tager jeg dem i retten.
