I hope I can relax a bit there. I don't want to spoil the others' days there either.
I was really looking forward to it until Friday.
To be honest, before I found the forum here, I searched the internet a lot for like-minded people and read through a lot of Google entries regarding §285.
Unfortunately, that brought me down more than it built me up.
The forum here, which I have now read through from the first to the last page, has given me hope for a good ending again.
I would like to thank you all for all the good encouragement and your help in putting a smile back on my face.

Thank you so much!

Sadly, all the "horror stories" about 6 months' imprisonment etc. are mostly from lawyers for whom you are a walking banknote. Of course they are happy when you seek their help for such "trivialities" and get paid accordingly. That doesn't mean that a lawyer isn't appropriate in a criminal case, but of course they also want to win clients and that works well by scaring the players a bit and reading about prison sentences etc. on every website. No one has ever!!! been arrested for 285stgb.

Someone had written here the last few days that 285 StGB should even be deleted, as it is disproportionate to punish the responsible citizen in this way. After that, it would only be an administrative offense. So enjoy your vacation in Egypt and take a deep breath. Nothing will happen to you.

Hello everyone, are there any new judgments or results in the meantime? We are still waiting to see the files..

In the past, most of them have been discontinued, even if the contributions or the way to get there was hard, it has now been discontinued for all of them, which speaks for the fact that the legal situation looks "good" for us....

call me paranoid, but can it definitely be ruled out that you will be spared when making deposits and withdrawals at LEGAL casinos?
I have withdrawn over €1,000 at bwin (after making deposits) and the bank transfer comes from "Stichting Custodian Worldpay" ? How does the bank know that the money comes from BWIN and not, for example, from Platin?
Just a long number.


The fact is, the bank knows where the money comes from and whether the casino is legal or not. If this were not the case, there would be constant reports like this since regulation, which is not the case.

Regardless of the fact that I would never have played there if I had known this information beforehand, I could shake my head for hours over the time it took for the police to deliver the letter.
Nice before Christmas, great gentlemen.
They haven't heard anything about Christmas peace or quiet yet.
But after Christmas, the statute of limitations would have started for me.

In any case, they ruined my Christmas.
Always nice on the pancreas...

When did the bank report or terminate your contract?

When did the bank report or cancel you?

Terminated approx. mid/end of July, beginning of August 23 to my end of October, beginning of November 2023.
I can't remember the exact date.
Definitely around that time.
And I haven't played since January 2022.
Had also bet a lot on the day in question, 01.12.2021. Then let the specified win slips expire after 5 weeks.

Would really like to know why they searched around in the past for 2 years. No bank needs that long to process a suspicion...

That would be too good.... Why should you be considerate just because Christmas is just around the corner? So sorry, you can't think like that.

Don't take it personally, I mean it in general.
I feel sorry for you and your situation, I wouldn't wish it on anyone. But basically keep your head and lick your ass. The worst thing that will happen to you is a fine. The end
