Well, Nadja, because you thought that everything is just "fake" I drew your attention to our legislation.

What you do with it and which laws have validity with you is of course up to you

Look a little further, then you will see that all reclaiming in Germany is only a farce anyway. The public prosecutors will thank you for it.

For the time being, national legislation / EU legislation is irrelevant when it comes to blocking/canceling bank accounts. First of all, a bank may terminate an account on the basis of contractual freedom

In the case of savings banks, this may only happen if the termination is for an appropriate reason
This would be the case if the account is used for illegal activities. A suspicion according to §285 StGB or §261 StGB would therefore be completely sufficient for a termination.

The question regarding EU law taking precedence over national legislation does not really arise, since in this case one would probably have to take legal action all the way to the ECJ, and someone who only loses his account is unlikely to want to bear these costs.

Apart from that, it is not that simple. According to EU law, there is freedom to provide services, but this may be restricted at the national level when it comes to gambling, provided that the state ensures sufficient protection against gambling etc..
The fact that it is not really a matter of protection against gambling, but rather of the state monopoly on gambling, does not play a role in this context for the time being. At most, this would be relevant in a lawsuit before the ECJ.

For the above reasons, I would neither make deposits nor withdrawals to a German bank account.

Well, they wouldn't let that stand in Germany in such an absolute way if it were up to your presentation.

The 261 stands for money laundering and is OK, §285 raises the question of permitted and unpermitted;
thus the regulated and unregulated market. The regulated market with only German licenses
and the unregulated market with, among others, Online Casinos with EU licenses that are tolerated and not
not prosecuted.

Hot or gray zone...... .no matter, behind it is EU law what goes before national law and before one
Players over banks attacks, D should first attack the providers. They will do that with a
industry with a turnover of around 40 billion and a strong lobby, and parties will also
also profit from it.

Meanwhile, almost all German casinos with German and EU license, I myself have there
transferred and on VB account let...everything no problem, only if people thousands
Euros, ideally still over 10000 €, one must not be surprised about termination.

But this does not exclude that banks still terminate out of different readings
or because clear regulations are missing. I have read here that some people have had problems with banks
banks; I would choose Neteller as MoneyTransfer. But I am still held back by the
inactive account fees. At the end of the day, banks can always terminate, that's right, the original problem
must be solved by the government. It can not be that German casinos with EU license and player
go through like butter and other players have their accounts terminated at the same time. Irre...... i-wie... >:O

the primal problem
must be solved by those in power.

This makes me wonder why they should do that.

The current situation is not really bad for the federal government. Since players from Germany can still register at most casinos, there is still tax revenue. At the same time, there is uncertainty among many players regarding account terminations, is one allowed to keep the win, etc....

In this situation, the state Provider (e.g. Lotto) can point out that these problems do not occur with them and that one should play with the legal provider.

If there should be actually times federal licenses for on-line Casinos, then one does not need to play there in my opinion any longer
It is often criticized that Lottohelden/Lottoland etc.. in contrast to the state lottery do not pay any taxes (this does not mean taxes, but taxes for sports clubs etc...).
One can assume that with a country wide legalization appropriate levies are likewise considered. That the RTP is then very poor should be understandable.

Maybe it comes also differently, but I consider such a scenario not at all so improbable, finally the German state raised with sport bets also 5% and made thereby sport bets for German players absolutely unattractive
The Bank advantage at the bookmakers is already high enough and then 5% extra.

The 5% did not make sports betting unattractive.

Bullshit the 5% didn't make sports betting unattractive.

I don't think so either, at least not for the majority of people. If someone really disciplined tries to make a (small) win with sports betting permanently, then he will probably miss the 5% in the end. But for the majority of players probably irrelevant. And still better than the odds at the state Provider

Since you know yourself contrary to my assumption very well with right and law, perhaps there is from you also a plausible explanation why e.g. PayPal (and other payment providers) have withdrawn from the German online gambling market?
(And that although they could earn themselves silly from us players)

Why doesn't Paypal, for example, sue gamblers who charge back gambled money and instead issue Debt waivers?
And just by the way, there are currently many chargebackers, as well as lawyers/law firms that take care of the players.
Why do so many lawyers, for example, help players who have gone bankrupt, because they have nothing to do, want to sit on their costs - or maybe because they know more than you do, especially what is right and law in Germany?

Or why do e.g. banks terminate online gamblers' accounts, even though they don't really give a shit what you do with your money?
Everyone can do with his money what he wants, explain to me why so many online gamblers want to hide their play from the banks, online casinos but everything is EU compliant!
And also just by the way...I have also always gambled away my money, and although my bank knew that I was a (offline) gambler, I (and many offline players known to me) the bank has never terminated the account...I do not understand, why do they terminate because online players?

Good night

Of course, everyone can do with his money what he wants as long as no money laundering and or other illegal things are made but that's another topic

Each player whether online or offline is for a bank a Risk customer

A friend of mine works at a bank he also plays but in other cities and I mean that he told me once that he would even get the dismissal if his employer learns that he is a player

The whole thing has the background that you can slip as a player just too easy in sectors that you can no longer control that knows every bank that knows even every player that the transition is sometimes sneaky

There are people who don't want to have payment problems or commit acquisitive crimes but gambling is like an imprinted stamp

It is simply a taboo subject because it can cause problems similar to any other drug for some people

and that's just a risk for potential lenders or business partners you can't see behind people's heads if they have a problem or not so almost nobody takes that risk

I have also paid out 20,000 € to my bank account at a savings bank with two entries of 10,000 € each

what happened ? The call came I should but please come to the branch the money laundering protection department would have alerted my advisor to bookings

I then told my advisor what it is because the online casino has my name with I think a Belgian address in the purpose of use packed and I was asked if I had a residence there

That was two years ago now and another two years ago I asked my advisor about deposits and he just said

"Yes online casino I would recommend them to leave otherwise they could get problems if you ever need a loan"

The end of the song

i still have my account but I'm pretty sure I will never get a loan from this bank

If' it suits you better: then just hold 'Banker' and yes there are the *Best Casinos in Germany 2019*.
All have the German and EU license. At my favorite game even says: *They surf under the flag
of Malta*/sensibly. Rather, I consider the German laws on this illegal, as long as they do not respect EU law.
The rule is: EU law before country law. Still and every government should stick to that.

No there are no German casinos and none under German license. No idea where you got that from. There were once some under Schleswig Holstein license, which have expired.
