Online Casinos in general: Problems with Schufa because of online casino? (Page 3)

Of course, we can't all know 100%, but in any case I wanted to try to take a sober look at the matter. Of course, you could be totally wrong with your assessment, because after all, participating in illegal gambling is a criminal offense, and what they can and are allowed to do in the fight against it is usually very elastic.

Either way, I think the whole Schufa construct is important, but still very questionable in terms of how it is implemented. I find the 10,000 queries from Online Casinos even more strange. Something like that shouldn't actually be in the Schufa at all, because creditworthiness and gambling are unfortunately a contradiction in very many cases, apart from occasional gamblers and people with a lot of self-control.

What is it about?
Once a year, usually at the end of the year, I request this free self-disclosure from Schufa. Simply to see who and what has obtained information about my personal income. I'm just interested, there's nothing else to it.
Yesterday, Saturday, I received the envelope in my letterbox.
I had to realize that in the last year 2024 about !!!20!!! Inquiries were made by casinos about liquidity, address reconciliations etc. Two German casinos, 11 Malta casinos, Skrill and other international payment services.
The number makes me wonder. I was also not aware that the German Schufa file can also be accessed from Malta and from abroad in general. I was not aware of this and I have never read this anywhere in the terms and conditions.

I don't want us to misunderstand each other. I am aware that there are no negative entries, but that information was simply obtained. However, these requests for information have an impact on the Schufa score. This score drops simply because gambling services request your data from Schufa. I was also not aware that you are not informed before this data is requested. I find it frightening that this happens behind your back and that you can't defend yourself against it.

I am really angry about this and would therefore like to warn you. Get this free information and take a look, you might be in for a nasty surprise...

1. Here at StarGames.de, SCHUFA is listed in the terms and conditions as well as in the privacy policy. If you do not see / find it in the other providers (simply search for it with Ctrl + F in the terms and conditions or in the privacy policy), you can contact these providers.
   


2. The information has no influence on the SCHUFA score. This has been officially confirmed to us several times by SCHUFA.
   


3. Providers must have the player's identity confirmed at least once a year according to the State Treaty on Gambling. This is why providers check at least once a year, even if you are no longer active there.
