Question about Gambling websites with Curaçao license using incorrect Merchant Category code (sida 571)

Have you raised multiple cases with them previously? That could possibly be why

Never raised anything with them

Är det någon som har kontaktuppgifterna till journalisten i Guardian-artikeln? Jag kan inte hitta den.

Have they blocked your card or anything? Usually a Notice to close puts restrictions on your account, can also make it harder to open an account elsewhere too

I didn't contact them but received a refund direct from them after raising disputes.

Does anyone have contact information for creative digital solutions please? Also E0000480 praha would be helpful too please? If possible

Ah ok.. Im with Revolut so doubt raising a dispute with gambling will work.. is this the route you went down? Any help be appreciated

Can I ask, what happens now that it's in the papers and one of you are saying it's happened before. Do I need to contact them to say I've used these sites or do they know 🤷🏻‍♀️?

I literally feel at a loss just now, starling won't help as over 120 days and now my 2 biggest merchants pixeleum and nikotpf are saying they won't refund, between them two I have 17.5k in transactions! How can I get this back? I've sent an email to a company called Refundee to see if they can help.

I tried with Starling and they point blank refused saying they don't chargeback as they are gambling transactions (I was honest with them) I tried pleading my case with them but they then said as it's out of the 120 days they couldn't do anything.

With Bank of Scotland I raised disputes for goods/services not received ie digital art, gift cards and have had some refunded but they have closed my accounts apparently because of breach of T&C's and the amount of disputes raised.

It's pixeleum and nikotpf I want refunded as it's a huge amount of money and they are refusing. I want to know more about the new things happening in the news and what that means for us.

their names are in red.

i need your help

can you please email me

Really kicking off a lot of articles now

let’s hope they find some of the big payment processors and send auto refunds

Jag kan rapportera 0000480 via e-post

Tack, men jag tror att en journalist skrev på forumet innan publiceringen och jag lämnar hennes kontaktuppgifter.

Sorry I don't understand.. you have information for E0000480?

Ja. Skicka mig din e-postadress om du vill så ska jag förklara.

Jag ser att du är mycket kunnig. Kan jag ställa en fråga till dig?

Är en Bizum-betalningsprocessor som behandlar betalningar till kasinon olaglig? Skulle du klumpa ihop det med det?

How did people get refunds in the past from MasterCard and Visa did you email them to say you were using these casinos or did they know automatically? I'm thinking about emailing MasterCard.
