Hello everyone,
quick question. I unfortunately gamble from time to time and when I do, there are always transactions of smaller amounts. I tried to keep my fairly new Commerzbank account out of it, but unfortunately I did make some Trustly transfers to my virtual credit card (so far I think okay?).
Now the day before yesterday I requested a payout to the Commerzbank account just to see what the processing time is like there. The amount was only 40 euros. The payout, which was always reliably posted to the account on the same working day on other accounts, did not arrive today and a 60 euro real-time payout from PayPal to my bank account is in the account under "earmarked within the next few days".
Should I be worried that this one transfer to me from Malta will cause some kind of trouble and be held back? Or am I just playing around and Commerzbank is just slow? I am worried about that.
Well, I think it depends on which casino you played at. With a German licensed casino, you won't have anything to worry about. With an unlicensed casino, there may actually be problems with the bank. Just search the forum. There are plenty of examples.
I'll keep my fingers crossed that everything goes well. Unfortunately, however, there seems to be an increasing number of account blockings/notifications for payments from casinos that are not licensed in Germany.
I played at 22bet. So not licensed. Wouldn't have thought that they would reject an incoming transfer from Malta with the very first booking and such a small transfer amount. The money may still arrive tomorrow, although EU international transfers must be booked on the same day. And the PayPal thing is also surprising, why is the real-time transfer shown as earmarked instead of being booked directly? Oh man oh man, such a hassle over practically nothing.

I think it's because Paypal now has to play along with the German rules. As Donnie already said, if you want to continue playing there, it's better to use one of the methods mentioned.
Paypal would be independent of gambling. A friend sent me 60 euros and I paid it out as normal via PayPal to my bank account. Therefore surprising. I even wanted to open a token account, but unfortunately they haven't processed my photo for a week, which I was supposed to send to them ...
I also have a question and that is I have a Jeton account and to top up credit on my wallet I always buy credit via Guthaben.de via my Commerzbank bank account ... can the bank actually say something if it becomes too frequent ? Because CashtoCode many dealers (gas stations) were closed here in Berlin does anyone know ? Thanks in advance
I actually think that Commerzbank has rejected the incoming transfer from 22bet. I'm curious to see if and when the money will be credited back to the 22bet account. It will probably take ages, if it comes back at all. It's annoying, even if it's not a large sum.
I would strongly advise against continuing to use Trustly, neither to Deposit nor to withdraw, I used it again last August because they were always bomb-fast, deposits and withdrawals were even licensed (Slotmagie, Wildz and Wunderino), as well as a withdrawal from Paysafecard, so allowed and legal and suddenly my account was blocked ☝️
No letter, email, phone call, no pop up or message in online banking, nothing, absolutely nothing!
I think it was about this credit: "Inpay AS | win from gambling | + 30 €"
The trulla from Sparkass couldn't tell me exactly what the problem was or which transaction this had to do with.
In any case, she called me somewhere, asked me to come to an office and said that illegal gambling was forbidden, they would have to report it if it happened again, would have to tell me which casinos the payment came from and that they were all on the whitelist (then she actually told me "just because it's on their website doesn't necessarily mean they're legal, but she couldn't advise me now, I've never experienced anything so incompetent) but she couldn't release it herself, one of the strange voyeur spies from the 31 Club who squats in some cellar had to do it, but I quote "Your account is now under observation" everything I would have liked to say to her after that sentence would have been criminally relevant, so I was able to stifle it by the skin of my teeth, after about a week it was free again, but also no notification that it is unlocked again, account was not canceled either, was just ultra annoying and probably cost me a year of life, what I want to say, think about whether it is worth such a haeck maeck just to use Trustly 🙈
I will definitely refrain from using my bank account to pay in or out anywhere in future. My token wallet is now finally open, so I'd rather do it through it. The payout still hasn't arrived yet. I actually think that Commerzbank automatically rejects certain transfers. I definitely can't have been the focus. The question is, of course, whether and when the money will be credited back to my 22bet account.
Another update :
I have just received my part-time salary. Sales were booked, but the money was not credited to my balance. I panicked a bit and called them. Everything is fine with the account, no transfer was blocked or I'm on some kind of watch. There are probably major technical problems at the moment. So I hope the payment will still be made and my salary will also be released soon...
...somehow it's becoming fashionable to call your bank and deliberately make yourself suspicious. The other day someone received €22,000 without a hitch, threw all the advice to the wind and then asked if everything was cool because I think there was a total of €160,000 coming in. Zack, account gone. Now you, because you're waiting for a transfer from Malta, which takes a moment, and ask if you're on a watch list There was something like that with a girl recently. I don't know if it's all supposed to be like that

There are also special banks that are causing stress, especially the Sparkasse...
It's an absolute absurdity anyway if they discover 'casino activities' and pass this on to the police... but the fact that the banks basically also earn money with the transfers... that doesn't matter at that moment...

Yes, you're right. But the employee really didn't seem to care one bit. I don't think he had a clue either. The payout still hasn't arrived and won't. It was always posted to the other account on the same day, so it can't possibly take 3 days or longer at another bank. I'm sure this payment was blocked. Google also taught me that Commerzbank is one of many banks that use a special system that filters such payments.
Can the bank withhold transfers?
