Question about Gambling websites with Curaçao license using incorrect Merchant Category code (page 1,586)

I don’t think that was the question. Chargebacks in themselves aren’t an issue… I’ve had 90 odd successful chargebacks BUT I did speak to the bank about the circumstances in which I wanted to raise them and I was honest about the reasons…claiming goods and services not received when you’ve gambled £20k is fraudulent. Hence why the OP was asking about CIFAS.

Were these for large amounts?

Minimum 200 maximum 1000

I don’t speak to the banks I just submit it and say some long lines of "thought I was transacting with a licensed uk casino, turns out it was an unlicensed casino, they routed the payment through this merchant I’ve never heard of. I never received any goods or services from this merchant and the money never appeared on the unlicensed casino I thought i was transacting with"

Yes but with the context that I just posted

scudot and a few others i think.

did it actually appear or not?

which banks is this with sarah, i’ve had 2 banks/cards raise and 3 outright deny me

All my chargebacks have been through revolut, which I know can be hit and miss, hence why I spent a long time speaking to them before they raised the chargebacks on my behalf using the misrepresentation code and not goods/services/fraud.

Which casino was this for please?

So you’re lying? You did receive goods and services, you deposited and bet with the casino.

We’ve all been done over in this forum by dodgy offshore casinos but don’t be telling people to do no goods/ services received… people get a cifas marker for that

Hey can i ask how long after emailing did they refund? Ive been at them for a week now and still nothing

May I ask what casino please? I am doing a lot of chasing with zero luck at the moment

Anyone managed to find anything on PlayT, ActualPlay & SKplayclick? I found the merchant ID first 6 digits matched for ActualPlay and PlayT but can’t find anything else

Sure, I’ll post whatever I get from the bank. I’m particularly interested in Visual Mill as well, because I still can’t establish who is behind those transactions.

If your bank gets back to you first with the MCC or acquirer details for Visual Mill, please let me know. It would be useful to compare the information from both banks.

Yes, both vercs2 and tokdom came up in my transactions. Xpate challenged some of those chargebacks as well and provided documents in response. I disputed the documents where the information didn’t match my transactions.

Some of my Xpate cases have already been resolved in my favour, but I’m still waiting for the final outcome on several others, including some of these descriptors.

Thanks, that’s useful to know. I haven’t received a direct refund from Art Solution so far, so I’m also interested to hear if anyone has actually managed to recover money from them.

I’m still waiting for more detailed transaction data from my bank. If they confirm the exact MCC and Acquirer ID for Art Solution, XOR Visual Layer, Visual Mill or Hexo Land, I’ll share what I get here. Please let me know as well if you find anything on Visual Mill or Hexo Land.

Thanks. I’ll definitely try the merchants directly first and keep the chargeback option as a backup.

Have any of your pending Xpate cases moved forward recently, or are they still challenging them? I’m trying to get an idea of how long the remaining cases might take.
