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!

I told them that I had gambled and these companies are transaction laundering so please chargeback via 12.7 invalid code used. Ensure you tell them that these transactions would have been blocked if they used correct codes as credit cards are prohibited from being used for gambling in the UK

Do you know by any chance the same code for MasterCard as I might use this one for my bank.

And for my fellow Casino Guru users. If you have found contact details of the merchant you need add it to this other topic I made to have a good overview of merchants and their contact details in case you need to get a refund or start a chargeback process. This way we can keep the ongoing discussion here but not see the same questions for same merchants being asked. With 338 pages it can take a while to find the data you need.

Hello, we wanted to let you know that this thread in particular motivated us to request that the developer team add a pin option and a save post option so that we will not have to go through the history looking for important posts.

While we work on that, we appreciate your assistance in helping the others stay focused on their priorities!

I don’t sorry. Code 7995 is gambling if they had of used this code and you have a gambling block then the bank should reject it but they use other codes to bypass.

Barclays were ok for me, although credit cards not debit played in my favour. Visa seem to be better than Mastercard, I am having a game with Chase not huge amounts but still want it back

I'm finding HSBC difficult to deal with, mine is currently under investigation I'm hopefully getting a callback today. They asked if the funds I deposited entered my account, I said yes but that's not the point here. It was a credit card. I'll keep you updated

I rang them and went through to about 4 different people ( they're not very helpful) I would just be honest, that's what I've done. Explaining about the incorrect merchant code where they are deceiving the banks. I was just upfront and honest about the whole situation. Just make sure you have copies of statements from the casino in case they require them. It's really hard mate. Not an easy ride but certainly I have learnt a lesson with all of this offshore gambling. This is what I've done personally and not saying weather or not it's the correct route to take, I felt it was as would be easier to prove things.

Hi!


eWAY is a payment gateway for businesses and not a merchant. You need to reach us directly to the bank or dispute the transactions to your bank.


kind regards,


I got this from them yesterday. Have asked twice if my card has passed their system. Was unsure if this was them. Okay then I know ewave is these then.
