Kleinkariert wrote on 07/06/2019 at 11:50: Can it be that it differs between the states, some states are yes for regulation and legalization and some are for a stricter enforcement of the ban. Talked openly about this issue myself at my credit un ion (about 3 months ago and quite a few times before that) there were never any problems or consequences. It was only on a human level tried to drive me out of gambling, because I would only burn money and what I would have everything if I had simply saved.

But it depends on the bank consultant, mine likes me very much and we have a very friendly relationship. If a bank advisor is out to get rid of you, they will suspect money laundering and make it difficult for you to clear it up and the bank has to react accordingly and will normally cancel the account. Usually, some things are done in the background much earlier, e.g. there are lower or no credits because you enjoy less trust as a risky customer (there are exceptions in case of long-term trust and not too high a sum)



Participation in games may only be carried out by players at whose place of residence the implementation of online Games of chance with winnings is permitted according to the legal situation applicable there. In places where, according to the applicable legal situation, the conduct of online games of chance with the possibility of winning is not permitted, participation is prohibited. In these cases, illegal gambling is present. For all federal states, with the exception of Schleswig-Holstein, there is currently no Concession for online gambling. Participation in gambling is prohibited for players residing in these federal states. Players who participate in online gambling from these federal states are engaging in illegal gambling."

This excerpt from the GTCs of an online Provider evokes another important point. Although providers like to advertise them as a "German seal", gambling licenses from Schleswig-Holstein are not valid throughout Germany but only in the state itself.

my bank (Vr bank) just called me that you have some payments opened including "Trustly" and "Worldpay LTD.".
The employee asked me what kind of payments it was about. I answered the question with: "Why do you need to know that?" in the end I said it gonge about sports betting and the woman was satisfied with the answer and said she passes it on like that...

Do I have anything to worry about?
The payments are of course from OC.

Thank you

I have told my bank once that I gamble on the Internet.have never been asked about money received from trustly.I would be interested in how much the sums were.what is so bad to tell them the truth.they probably know it anyway.I imagine now times all Germans who gamble on the Internet would be canceled the account.that would be the super gau.

You did not need to quote that. I am aware that it is declared illegal according to the gambling treaty.

But it is played for many years without consequences and DE takes 19% tax from these companies. So is aware that the turnover has increased more and more. Schleswig Holstein quickly realized that it would be easy money and went a special way.

Now, however, Schleswig Holstein does not want a regulation nationwide, but several states are clearly more positive against it. Especially SPD made it clear that they are against regulation and for a ban. Other parties are more in favor of an opening.

I myself have never had problems, my bank knows that I played in the casino and only a question about money laundering came up and that was quickly clarified.

In addition, the amount of each payment will also trigger some additional scrutiny.

Don't understand what you are getting at.

Just because you can do something doesn't make it legal. I can access some sites on the internet. Does not necessarily have to be legal. And you don't have to sugarcoat it all either. Casinos are illegal online and that's it. Otherwise, no chargebacks would go through and BVB would not be investigated.

ask any jva why they are sitting there and count all those who are sitting in oc because of gambling

The biggest problem is always the tax authorities. If it is not money laundering, you do not need to worry. Wins are fortunately tax free. *click

wettibernd wrote on 05/06/2019 at 21:58: Why should they cancel the account? If anything then they would have done that long ago. And even if, you have no debts, no negative Schufa or other obligations, if you still have a regular income takes you every bank in Europe with hand kiss

A regular income of at least 2300€ net per month is available

Cancel the account simply because chargebacks have become "fashionable" and the banks have become aware of OC players.
And since it is illegal in Germany, no matter for which bank the reason is given to cancel your account!

If then times more people are screened fall (former) 50 foreign transactions certainly rather in the eye than before the online casino & chargeback time. One reads not for nothing (also here on gamblejoe) of more and more people threads / posts that their banks make trouble and close accounts

Therefore also my concern

Helps probably only continue to be game-free and hope that they do not contact me...

Ps: today's 4 months & 2 days and thus about 1500€ saved money more on the account

if i forbid you to throw dirt at me and you throw dirt at me and i allow it then i guess it's not forbidden by me. if you forbid players to play in Online Casinos you can't advertise it on tv. would be the same if someone advertises weed on tv

The topic has already been discussed here:

There is no advertising for casinos anywhere. For a while for casinos with SH license, yes. Otherwise, nowhere is actively shown advertising for online casinos
