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!

you can't see them yourself, however if the merchant on your statement is different to the website you deposited too, then you can almost guarantee they have used the incorrect mcc

Hello mate,


I don't recognise any of these merchants, however these casinos use different ones daily. Which casino did you use? Also, was it debit or credit card transactions?

I used jokabet.com , ninewin.com , betfoxxx.com , tikitaka.com. I have credit card transactions for betfoxxx to a company called echosyntex. The other two were bank transfers.

Jokabet have been known to refund UK users themselves.

All credit card transactions I'd go straight to the credit card company, as gambling transactions should be automatically blocked on the credit cards, these companies using wrong MCC is a big reason for a chargeback.

The bank transferred transactions, I'd also originally try the chargeback method. However, some banks are reluctant to help out. So you may want to consult the financial ombudsman alongside your complaint with your bank.

I've not heard of those ones, however how can seriously believe you made these transactions to furniture and fragrance companies. So ridiculous. Go to the Ombudsman I think

I had some luck directly with Jokabet, after this email they sent the one below what I sent. May be worth a go?


Hi,


Thanks for this, so a couple of concerns I deposit to you yet these third parties now have my details as the contract should be between us not them. You state UK players accepted and let you deposit yet your terms state no UK players.

Please provide details of these third parties so I can look to obtain a refund as they shouldn’t be handling my money.


Kind regards



Hello,


We hope this email finds you well.


We wanted to inform you that all deposits will be refunded to your credit card ending in ***. We will contact you once the refunds have been processed.


Thank you for your understanding.


Sincerely,

Ethan
