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!

Have anyone had an unsuccesful chargeback with your bank, after getting through the initial step?


What I mean is if someone has experienced that the merchant disputes the claim, and that the bank sides with the merchant.

Can someone send a link to VISAs regulations where it states that using the wrong merchant code is a valid reason for chargeback?

No tengo una fuente directa a mano, pero puedes consultar el sitio web oficial de VISA para conocer su política de devoluciones de cargos. Por lo general, el código de tarjeta comercial (MCC) se tiene en cuenta en las devoluciones de cargos si se utilizó de forma abusiva o incorrecta. También puede haber información sobre esto en los términos de uso generales de VISA. Alternativamente, puedes comunicarte directamente con el servicio de asistencia de VISA para obtener una respuesta precisa.

Hi all,


I'm having a real hard battle still with chase bank regarding piexeum and finnart.io. they have taken it down the scam/fraud route for now and said it would take upto 35 business days. Its been 15 days and they won't give me any information other than they are trying to sort this out with the merchant.


If this fails I'll put in a complaint as they are crypto related and should have been blocked and also used the wrong MCC.


As for the visa terms someone earlier said they got a chargeback for 12.7 invalid data so look into that.

I will make this as simple as possible for you here.


If you have an account at CasinoXXX.com and pay with a credit/debit card at this place but the values come off your statement as "MrAdubuwungoBookSeller" from Nigeria then under the T&C's of both Mastercard and Visa the payment can only be related to a product sold by the book seller - not the casino. You aren't likely to receive any books are you? Therefore if the merchant appearing on the statement cannot provide receipts/ proof of purchases then the transaction can be fully charged back. CasinoXXX.com cannot dispute the claim as that would give up the ghost - that in fact the transactions are related to gambling at an illegal website - gambling has a specific MCC code so the transaction is invalid/fraud.


The above is the crux of things. The casino cannot actually dispute anything.

That’s my understanding too, if they use an incorrect code to bypass a law then how or why would they ever be able to contest it. It would mean admitting fraud.


Visa 12.7 is the code that my credit card company used and they went that route rather than goods not received.

If you have a gambling block set up or credit card use where the law states you cannot use one for gambling in UK 12.7 visa code shouldn’t be any issue as if the correct code was used it would have been blocked.

Thank you, I am aware of that. But I have had chargebacks where the merchant disputes it - where I have won. I have no idea how they tried to dispute it. So I am just a bit curious if there are any cases, where the merchant has actually won in a chargeback dispute (where the situation is exactly as you describe, that they are just a shell company for casino payments).

No idea to be honest. If they have managed to win then rules haven't been followed by said bank/financial institution.

This isn't even my understanding of it - it is confirmed as law in the UK by lawyers who deal in that sector. There is case law around it as well somewhere.

I know we have discussed before about Chase and mine was a low amount, but as soon as I complained they then decided to authorise the chargeback.

Pixeleum was also one of mine that was originally refunded a while back, via the fraud/scam route. That went through no bother but two after that needed me to complain and then they messaged saying what will resolve it, I said chargeback and they did it there and then. Not sure if value is a factor as it was only £40 on each one.

Was this with credit card?

How did you lodge the chargeback? Online form or phone? Did you use the template previous users have posted with all your evidence to begin with?

Hi mate,


no it was with debit card and I used the template and evidence all I keep getting is because it’s a online casino it will be tricky but no1 is listening to me I suffer with a stammer so I struggle on The phone at the best of times so I don’t know if they understand what I am trying to say to them or if they are assuming what I am trying to say to them but I have started the complaints to see what happens there
