Question about Gambling websites with Curaçao license using incorrect Merchant Category code (page 791)

So ......

Has anyone here had any joy with chargebacks on a Mastercard based, UK bank account,

If so, could you please share with us all how you did it?

Please?

Monzo. Loaded up on evidence for each and every transaction. E-Mail evidence, chat log, tied back a view of the deposits made against casino site (not mentioned or full screenshot of course as went down the lack of goods route).

They were a pain and after I'd gone through and disputed a load of transactions they then rejected all of them as they needed additional information that they previously hadn't mentioned (wanted receipts, order confirmations and product info). Managed to get it sorted very quickly but I believe from looking at this forum DSSERVLTD are one of the merchants people have luck with.

You did well then, as I get the impression Monzo are as reluctant as Starling to make chargebacks.

As you were paying on a gambling site called "http://Mystake.com" which seems to be a legit website and has a good number of reviews and past history of providing legit service to their customers. Additionally, the support team is responsive on Trustpilot as well, which shows that the support team is co-operative and helpful to the customers thus your case is related to a civil dispute. We’ve reviewed your report and, unfortunately, we’re unable to help further.

WOW

They must be over-sighting the fact that

It is illegal to transact with, or advertise to, consumers in Great Britain without a licence.

(Directly from the Gambling Commission)

That explains them trying to cover Mystake in sugar. The journalist I’m in contact with is going to be going to Revolut and asking some questions…

If you want some asking yourself drop me an email and I’ll forward it on to him?

the more the merrier, here we have revolut again…

Anyone a support email for SKNSMGNT

I have 4 with the ombudsman now and they haven’t been assigned to a case handler for over 2 months. When they do assign someone they then give Revolut or whoever up to 90 days to resolve!!! It’s crazy

An update from PisStake...oh sorry, I mean MyStake.

"Hope this email finds you well.

This is a response to a Curacao LAWYERS letter to them. This is how much they care about laws and global financial rules! These are old transactions for me outwith the scope of chargeback now but the guy who used to post on here provided some detail on Mastercard and lawyers. I lost about 12000 Euro on this site so the lawyers fees might be worth it. Depends how much you are in for but Im giving it a shot. Chances of resolving directly with these crooks is almost zero.

Just had an update from FOS today that they don’t think Revolut did anything wrong even though they allowed me to transfer 20k in one evening to Falcora Finance despite me asking for help and to disallow it on several occasions because of my gambling addiction and Revolut also lying about attempts to recover my funds. Not even a token amount of compensation, nothing at all. My FOS ‘investigator’ used to work for a bank though as I found out by Googling him, they’re all on the same side. 👍

The FOS in the UK haven't had public pressure yet. Once that happens they will change their tune - all of this is based on momentum and making the issue public as much as possible.

I have done exactly the same with Monzo- they won't budge.

I currently have x2 complaints with the FOS re Monzo and their shenanigans

They’re an absolute joke.

The funny thing is they (accidentally?) accepted one of my 22 separate disputes based on just the initial evidence I uploaded. Unfortunately it was one of the tiny ones for about £80. Surely that is evidence they should accept them all?

4 Gaiw-Deposit chargebacks just dropped into my account (Revolut)

Nearly a grands worth

Exactly this, keep the pressure on

strength in numbers 🙌🏼

It is, yes. What was the outcome?

Make sure you save all the evidence for the Ombudsman.

That’s showing inconsistencies in procedures.

If one can be accepted and raised, all of them can.

They are all over the place 😂
