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!

Hi guys.

been lurking here a while, I was one of the first users to post in this thread for successful refunds. There are 2/3 merchants whom months ago took my money and I can’t track them down after numerous chargeback attempts etc. worth raising with the ombudsman? My bank couldn’t help me with then and the total up to about £700.


so happy to see more people getting refunds slowly but surely.

Paul you honestly need to stop and give funds to a family member immediately you've been fortunate enough to be credited back and your just giving it back to these sites and the amounts your losing is crazy.

You definitely need to stop mate. Your bordering on pushing this into freerolling territory by continuing to use recovered funds to play elsewhere. Get gamban installed asap would be my advice.

I don't know if they will do it mate. Get Gamban software and install it on your devices - you literally cannot bypass it.

Think the new version it can't be removed, but if you have multiple phones it is a problem. Is there someone who can deal with your finances for you?

Are any of these cowardly casinos actually going to come on here and defend their position?? Allegedly they have been invited to do so several times.

Problem is Gamstop only covers UK licenced casinos - its a great tool for that. Streamers need to take some responsibility for advertising these "offshore" sites as well, but the ones taking debit/credit card payments and hiding them as other things are the worst - just criminal in what they are doing.

Yes Crypto so I cannot see why my bank will not support me again as my credit card Zopa did it twice will see how it goes anyway it would not cause them any hassle its clear fraud and preying on people, they should be taught a lesson with full refunds issued even after payouts have been made. Im still waiting to hear from Kinghills its possible no support at weekends but would be surprising

DO NOT go on Instantcasino.com - they will literally never respond and neither do any of their merchants. Very dodgy one.
