Question about Gambling websites with Curaçao license using incorrect Merchant Category code (side 538)

I asked the casino for DSAR because i want to link the deposits with the bank transactions then i'll try to raise them with Revolut. But Revolut is the worst bank

I think they are sister sites

Oh yh them they are terrible would not do mine at all but the scum had bought crypto with my card so probably no chance its with the FOS now

I work for a bank and unfortunately the FoS won’t touch crypto usually - it’s a bloody mess. Hopefully you get sorted

Assume everyone has seen the above?

Thanks I doubt they will to be honest im not bothered it is £6000 but I have already got back £6-£7000 more than I lost anyway would be nice to win it though pay some loans

No just read it this would mean any transactions should be refunded no chargebacks needed reading this they say they do not tolerate it in any way ! nonsense you ask for a refund and get told where to go !

It looks like the game could be up soon for these sites but blocking ip is useless they just rename the web address. £2.7 billion spent is a lot no wonder the government are sniffing about now the victims stories are all the same as ours.

I hadn't seen this so thank you for sharing. I can see the casino i played on mentioned and I went to them first but they are ignoring my request for a refund and continue to email and text me despite telling them I am a problem gambler! I am going to contact the banks today.

Er det lovligt???

Game is up for Revolut - I have sent an email to the editors at the Guardian and attached all communications with them in regards to a denial of chargeback on one particular site. Hoping they will be exposed soon. I can also link Revolut to several merchants who are questionable to say the least.

That is great news then good work !

They have had it coming for a while now.

They are 100% working with these sites and coaching staff to play dumb.

Good work. I am also sending some emails on other casino operators and dubious payment processors to the Guardian/Observer. Here is the email for one of the reporters who wrote the article - shanti.das@observer.co.uk.

People should send in their experiences and get more of these rogues exposed publically - it is the only way to get this stopped.

Here is the email for the journalist at Investigate Europe who also contributed to the article: Email@maxencepeigne

Is that email right at the bottom?

Well spotted no it’s not and should be peigne@investigate-europe.eu

Anyone contacting the reporters should also send a list of these scam websites who are laundering funds for these casinos as well. I am certainly going to - particularly those ones that are registered as Ltd Companies at Companies House UK at postal only addresses with the directors residing overseas in Latvia/Georgia/Ukraine/Russia etc

De spanske myndigheder rapporterer ex officio disse kasinoer for at operere uden licens. Jeg spurgte, om de opdager afgifter med falske kundekoder. Jeg venter på svar. Men de anmelder og idømmer dem en bøde på 5 millioner euro for ikke at have en licens, som de åbenbart aldrig modtager.

i am going to expose Canapay

I got some deadly evidence what will take it down

I have 2K with them 🙈😕

It certainly shows they use canapay?
