Just curious if anyone has had any luck with Revolut assisting them? I know several of you have mentioned your Revolut transactions are pretty much a write-off as they wouldn’t chargeback but if anyone has had any luck with them I’d be very interested to hear. Thanks in advance.
I had minimal card payments most were transfers via open banking. Revolut refused to help me recover either as they said unlicensed gambling violates their terms of use.
Why are they so awful. 😢
Did they give you the same bot reply also about them not supporting unlicensed gambling?
Wish me luck,
Emails sent out to -pixeleum, finnart, echosyntex, elegro (3 different nikotpf* merchants), Panama web factory, and skinsmagnate.
Hopefully here back from some at least 🙏🏻
I just typed it in and the first one that came up was a web design company which there seems to be a theme with a lot of these merchants. It might be wrong but 🤷🏻♀️
got this email from finnart, problem is I don't have the bank card as it's Been replaced since then, I'm on chat with starling to get details of past cards but cat send a picture to them, and when they say a copy of the bank charges do they mean a statement or a screenshot?
Doesn’t matter what you send them I sent all the documents they asked for back in December and they never responded they just kept saying please allow us more time to investigate. Ended up waiting well over a month and no response so raised it with my bank and they sorted it
Okay il send stuff and see what happens. Managed to get an email from starling with dates that previous cards were issued and cancelled so that narrows stuff down with regards to dates and transactions and which card was used. I'm just hoping il get something back from some of them, pixeleum and the nikotpf* merchants are the biggest. I believe those were freshbet and goldenbet casinos. In my email to pixeleum I cc'd in freshbet Casino aswell

I am writing to formally address significant irregularities in transactions processed
through your platform, specifically concerning transaction masking, merchant category
code (MCC) misrepresentation, and potential transaction laundering.
Transaction Irregularities
Upon careful review of financial statements, I have identified the following critical
issues:
1. Merchant Category Code (MCC) Misrepresentation
Merchant Category Codes are standardized four-digit numbers assigned by
payment networks to classify businesses by the type of goods or services they
provide. In the transactions related to NAME OF CASINO, the following critical
discrepancies were observed:
Understanding Transaction Laundering
Transaction laundering is a sophisticated form of financial fraud where:
merchant accounts
transaction
transaction source
Legal and Regulatory Implications
These practices potentially violate:
With Pulsion? Rejected and unfortunately no recourse. It was some time ago and the casino eventually returned my account balance, but lost out on deposits made. To be fair, I was completely unaware of this masking stuff at that point and Pulsion are a registered payment authority so there is some difficulty. The ones that are fraud are ones where they are deliberately using booksellers and others to pass off gambling transactions as the sale of books etc - that is deliberate fraud and should always be challenged.
A good way to challenge these companies is by finding the company the payment went to on Gov.Uk companies houses.
For example WBMSC is WBMSC Ltd and their business is 96090 - Other service activities not elsewhere classified. Which is unrelated to gambling which you can use in your evidence with the bank.
