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!

Yes I’m currently in correspondence with them, I’ve disputed transactions with bank, they have acknowledged transactions but said I’m not a client of theirs and it could be someone else’s account using card details and to go through the bank, they will not directly refund!

I have been speaking with them since January and even sent them the current media articles. I spent 2 hours on the phone getting all of them raised and then over two days sending over all of the evidence. After 2 weeks of hearing nothing I telephoned them and they told me the back office team had closed them all down and weren't going to raise them. They are a disgrace.

So a case I have against an unlicensed overseas casino has gone to pre-arb after my bank sided with my chargeback claim to reverse debit card payments. Are VISA now expected to make a decision to refund me?


The merchant did not mask their MCC code. So VISA know these were gambling payments, even though this operator does not have a license to take on UK customers. I've also provided evidence myself from the UKGC confirming this.


If VISA don't decide in myself and my bank's favour then they are allowing illegal activity to happen right? Are my chances good? Has anyone had any experience of a casino fighting a chargeback all the way to pre-arb even though they know they used an MCC Code that confirms their own illegal activity?

Chase notified me straight away which was good, two transactions were in Brazilian currency, I am sure linked to the previous companies and my winning chargebacks

Pulsion processing always sent manipulated statements as part of the process and I could never get the bank to side with me to take it to pre-arb. Betswagger, Playhub, Gododds, Hustles Casino and PHG Casino all used Pulsion

Yes it's definitely alot to take in even I have to go back and find things I find it helpful that there's a little search icon at the top of the page so you can write in the merchants and see if anyone else has helpful info.

Well alot of people did try casino directly but seems to have little to no luck with them but you can try them aswell but the merchant on bank statements is always the way to go because then if you go ahead with chargebacks you have the proof you tried with merchants first.

Good evening all

This is my first post after trawlling threw all the helpful information and contacts.

I currently have an ongoing case with FOS after my bank refusing to raise my chargebacks under wrong MCC. They have also failed to offer help and support with my addiction.

I'm looking for help if possible, I'm trying to contact ZPDG and BP W Loading. I have almost £10,000 worth of transactions to these merchants. Has anyone had recent contact with these ?

I have emailed some of the suggested ones I found in earlier posts but have had no luck getting a response. I'm pretty much at rock bottom now and really need to get some money back to get back on my feet with priority bills. I'm highly disappointed and embarrassed in how I even got into such a mess, but seems people here have been in similar positions and are doing much better so I'm hopeful.
