Question about Gambling websites with Curaçao license using incorrect Merchant Category code (page 304)

Is that byte news?

ive got payments dating back to February this year, all show as Santeda International, I’ve found that each transaction has went to a different account number, currently going through the ombudsman at the moment as I got the usual with the bank, as it’s gambling they cannot help, any information on them for when the ombudsman start asking questions would be great

They are Canadian mate, headquarters in Vancouver. The guy ended up contacting the police in Vancouver to raise it. There are very strict rules over there for payments like this. There has even been press coverage of them somewhere a year or two ago. Only thing you can do is report them to the local authorities, say they took your money and you got nothing in return.

Out of interest was it "Katherine, Compliance Manager" who sent you responses from Santeda?

Ok thanks that may be worth a try mate anyone have any experience of this to help

Yes

No kyle compliance manager

Okej.

Any one got respons from them?

Question guys. Saturday 14th is the day my chargebacks can no longer be disputed, so in that case I win. With it being a Saturday does that mean I get the money Friday or Monday? Only Fomiline and Goriwire have disputed

It takes a few weeks to get settled after it passes

Ah does it! That's frustrating, was hoping to get the money just in time for Christmas! Haha.

Formuline is actually quickbit

Yeah I know, and goriwire. Only those 2 have disputed. However the bitsent transactions which is also quickbit.. have not been disputed 🤷‍♂️🤷‍♂️

Also what bank are you with as all banks have different cut offs but I am pleased you got some results fingers x you get it before Xmas

Yes mate well mine were it may well be faster with yours but it was not right after the 45 days with me it was about 60 days with incorrect MCC if you hear nothing after two weeks that is it

N*****t for me! Fingers crossed. I have spoken to them and my complaints advisor is contacting me on the 18th.. so I'm guessing that's with the outcome and of what I'm getting paid.

So when the 45 days passes they take a few weeks then to settle everything and put the refunds through I'm guessing?

From my bank. Any advise what I can do/respond?

Please note that if the disputed transactions relates to gambling, gaming or investment purposes, then we won't be able to dispute them according to Mastercard chargeback rules:

"For transactions in which value or assets are purchased for gambling, investment or similar purposes: This chargeback right is only available for a transaction in which the purchased value or assets failed to appear in the account agreed to between the cardholder and the merchant. For the avoidance of doubt, chargeback rights are not available for:

-refunds, withdrawals or transfer requests,

-terms and conditions or account access,

-winnings, gains or losses, or

-use or subsequent use."

If the funds have been successfully deposited in your investment/gambling account, then we consider the services were received. Hence, Mastercard cannot take the funds from the merchant.
