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!

Can you tell me which category you use? I was thinking of trying via Swedbank as merchants don't do anything

If I write here exactly how I did, then countless people will use the same template and method and then it probably won't work in the end, but the banks might even see it as fraud/incitement to fraud. So I keep it private. Sorry!

Last thing off me the bank are now saying it doesn't warrent a chargeback as the funds were received in my gambling account.


Is there anywhere that states you must received goods or services to the merchant that shows on your statement or who has received the money?


Also for people who have had successful chargebacks what code did they use.

There has got to be somewhere that states you must received goods or services from the merchants on your tstament, I have been looking into chargeback code 4840...I won't give up with chase bank and I will get my money back.


I have been gamble free now for 6 weeks so it's opened my eyes up tk all of this but I will fight for what's right and got to stop these illegal transactions.


Still offer a reward for any information that's successful with my bank.

4840 is for multiple approvals, I.e merchant charged more than once for same transaction. Doesn’t seem applicable for your situation.

Unfortunately it seems like you’ll have to go to the FOS.

Okay thanks.


I'll give it 2 days as that's when my complaint timeframe is up and zee if they refund due to the fact these are crypto related assets and should have been blocked.

How do you go about the omsbusden route has anyone got an original template letter just for some guidance on what to put etc.

So, I really do want to help people be succesful with chargebacks since I HATE the Gambling industry. I have followed this thread for months though and see how advices and templates just gets misused and ruin the chances for more people to succeed since people are just using the same ones and dont adjust them.

I have been succesful now with all chargebacks I have raised with my banks. I can, depending on your case, maybe help but since I am a gambling addict with 200k euro in debts, I do would like a reward If you are succesful.

Anyone that wants to give it a try can contact me at Discord, see user name in previous comment.

I dont think I can help with chargebacks that already have been raised and rejected with your bank. Ideally your situation is:

-Larger amounts to the same merchant name

-Not older than 120 days

-Have not been raised already with your bank

I am from Sweden so I am not sure If my method would be as succesful for banks in other countries.

I will give a free "assesment" regarding if I think you have a case. If you want to proceed I will take a small fee of 50 euro to guide on what reason you should chose, what you should write etc. Depending on amount and complexity we can discuss the size of the "reward" if you will be succesful with your chargeback.

It will all be based on trust, since I will never be able to force you to actually control if you are succesful, or force you to pay me.

You should also be very aware of that there is very little legal guidance regarding this area, different banks seem to handle it in different ways, and that it is a risk to that you yourself could be considered to be the one that committs the fraud.

Okay so.. why is everyone using a "template". If a business regardless of its nature gets masses of the same emails.. I'd ignore them too.


Put some time and effort, research about the company/business what's going on.. look at the templates and write your own.


These companies aren't going to just give you money back..


Just my thoughts!

Yeah this is the reason some of the merchants that actually refunded in the beginning stopped doing it. Everyone used the same template so they flagged it as spam and fraud. I mean, you could at least remove the quotation marks is the beginning/end of the template (looking at above post). 🙄
