A little warning here for the CG Community: Casino Guru is an open platform where everyone is free to share their thoughts and opinions. We believe in free speech and try to be as non-restrictive as possible. That said, please remember: just because something is posted on the forum doesn’t mean Casino Guru agrees with it or endorses it in any way. We’re really happy to see players engaging in conversations, debating respectfully, and having fun doing so! That’s why we created this platform. However, we’ve noticed a growing trend – not just here, but across other platforms too – where some players, after losing money fairly in a casino, look for ways to get those funds back through their bank or payment provider, often by filing chargebacks or making false claims. We’d like to warn you: this behaviour is not only unfair – it’s also very risky! We’ve already seen and heard stories (here and elsewhere) of people who got into serious trouble trying to go down this route – including closed casino accounts across multiple platforms, closed bank accounts, debts, and even lawsuits (attempted fraud). Attempting fraud or misrepresenting the truth to a bank or provider is never a good idea and could have lasting consequences. So here’s our friendly appeal to all Casino Guru community members: Stand up against unfair and dishonest casinos. Use our Complaints Resolution Center if you need help – you don’t have to fight alone. But please don’t try to get back money you’ve fairly lost. It’s simply not worth the risk. Thanks for being part of our community – and have a great day!

Quick one guys, been going down my statements and I see a charge with the name as just the letter E?

Anyone else got this

Yes you need to dig in to it further. If it’s Dsolpay it is refundable but E seems to be used by others too

It just says E, I can't figure out which site it was but it's definitely gambling and was in euros, merchant code says services and was after my santeda splurge, infact it might be them.

As I did payments by 2 card method options before it blocked it and only allowed transfers via payop


Is their a merchant I can use to show bank iv contaxted and not received services for this one?

Is there a merchant I can contact to say I didn't receive order and charge it back at all?


I actually think the deposits went to mystake, because it was right before a splurge of transferop payments. It's marked as services and in euros.

When you click in to the transaction does it not tell you anything else? On Revolute I go in to the transaction click download on the statement, it then says E as the headline but underneath there’s a name of another company. Some of mine are exotrx some are Dsolpay, some are inpics. The easiest by far to get back is Dsolpay

Just adding on in addition to your illegally functioning site. You claimed goldenbet had no connection to mystake. I was blocked and permanently self excluded from mystake many months ago however allowed to open a goldenbet account and lose thousands yet you explained you had no connection but why put both casino names at the bottom of your post 🤔???. No one on this site is charging back in bad faith they are claiming their rightful funds back from you vultures who prey on vulnerable customers and take advantage of this with your unregulated and fake games.

Amy, while your reminder about the misuse of chargebacks is noted, your statement entirely overlooks the broader legal and ethical issues surrounding Santeda B.V.’s own practices.

You cannot selectively choose which laws apply to you.

Operating in the UK while unregulated by the UK Gambling Commission is illegal. It is not enough to say that services were "rendered" if those services themselves are being offered in violation of local laws. Consumers have rights, and operators have responsibilities — including obeying the legal framework of the countries they operate in.

If the chargebacks were truly fraudulent, why are the banks not siding with you?

If these were all baseless claims, financial institutions like Santander (and others) would routinely deny them. The fact that chargebacks are being upheld suggests there’s merit to the consumer’s case — including concerns over deceptive practices, such as masking merchant category codes (MCCs) to bypass gambling restrictions or block self-exclusion tools. That alone raises major red flags.

Legitimate, regulated casinos rarely face chargebacks.

In properly regulated markets, casinos follow strict compliance and player protection rules, including affordability checks, deposit limits, and self-exclusion enforcement. As a result, chargebacks are exceptionally rare — because transactions are transparent and players are safeguarded. The high volume of chargebacks you’re experiencing says more about your business practices than it does about your customers.

The Real Problem:

This isn't simply about "players gambling and trying to reverse losses" — it's about vulnerable individuals being targeted and exploited by platforms that operate outside the law, ignore local safeguards, and rely on obfuscation (e.g., MCC masking) to continue profiting from addicted or desperate users.

Yes, there are moral grey areas — but the greater responsibility lies with the operator. You facilitate the harm. Without you, this entire debate wouldn’t exist. People wouldn’t be losing life savings or facing emotional breakdowns if proper protections were in place — protections that regulated operators are legally required to uphold.

The Solution:

  1. Only operate in jurisdictions where you are fully licensed and regulated.
  2. Comply with all local laws, not just the ones that are convenient.
  3. Cease masking transactions and misrepresenting charges.
  4. Implement meaningful responsible gambling tools and enforce them.

Until then, warnings about the "abuse" of chargebacks ring hollow. You are demanding fairness while offering none in return.

As you said, you won’t comment further and the main reason is because you know what you are doing is wrong, both morally and legally.
