Got a total nonsense reply about my FOS appeal:
Dear Mr Mcewan
Thank you for your email and additional points which I've now looked int.
With regards to your reference to Mastercard, I can only look at your complaint and what you raised when you asked Revolut to raise chargebacks. Unfortunately, the information you supplied was insufficient for them to raise a chargeback which had a prospect of success. And a chargeback is not an automatic right or obligation that a card issuer raise a chargeback when a consumer asks for one. But we would consider it good practice for a chargeback to be attempted where the right exists and there is some prospect of success.
The gambling transactions you asked for chargebacks on were authorised by you, you were aware what the purpose of the transaction was and you supplied insufficient evidence to show that a chargeback could be successful.
From the information for other banks you have supplied it appears the chargebacks which were successful were only because the merchant failed to respond, and I note that it was successful when a merchant did respond, possible failure to respond from a merchant wouldn't be a reason would could say that Revolut could have used to raise a chargeback because the chargeback didn't appear to have a prospect of success. Telling them they should have raised one anyway just in case a merchant failed to respond would not be a valid reason to have asked them to do so.
With regards to the closure of the account, although the automated chat couldn't help with the account closure, Revolut did do what we would have expected them to do in advising you on how you could go ahead and close the account so we couldn't say they acted unfairly.
I'm sorry that this was not the outcome you had hoped for.
Yours sincerely
