Om handlaren uppenbarligen använder falska bevis skulle jag inte tveka att rapportera till den lokala polisstationen. Många av betaltjänsterna är baserade i Storbritannien, så möjligheten till åtal är lovande. Ge banken referensnumret för brottsanmälan, så tar polisen hand om resten.

Du missar ett bra tillfälle att ge återförsäljarna långfingret. Så många som möjligt bör anmäla återförsäljaren om han använder falska bevis.

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 något sätt gör VISA och Mastercard en stor hemlighet av återkrav. Tydligen är det upp till banken att avgöra om en återbetalning går igenom eller inte. I slutändan får VISA och Mastercard säga sitt i frågan. VISA och Mastercard är också delvis skyldiga, systemet har glidit i händerna på kriminella och det är nu mycket svårt att ta sig ur. Systemet behöver ses över!

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.

Jag håller med. Bra idé att kontakta media. Estolio Limited verkar också som en bluff för mig. De har inte ens kontakt någonstans, jag kanske tar dem till domstol.
