But of course they would have done that ^^..but always bashing the evil casino..this double standard p**ses me off...

Because at some point there will be no more Dienstliester who want to do that to themselves...


Maybe/probably PayPal will now be slain with chargebacks en masse - by all the short-term thinking (highly unsympathetic to me) contemporaries who think to themselves "ooooch, I'll now simply charge back my previous stakes from PayPal. It doesn't matter that they block me, because I can't gamble with them anymore anyway"

I'm even sure that many have done so with the chargebacks.... I think that comes not by chance the paypal withdraws completely from the gambling market

People are also trying to explain the chargebacks with a gambling addiction. Maybe that's good for your own conscience, but otherwise? A gambling addict should do something for himself, get treated. If you don't want to do that, you can get blocked in the casinos, or don't use a PayPal account (well, hardly works anymore anyway), or go to a bank (as already discussed on GJ: e.g. o2 Banking/Fidor) where no "Sofort" is possible and also no KK payment for gambling stuff is possible. That would be a start.

You can also block the account immediately. However, this is then permanent for this account.

GambleJoe is aimed exclusively at visitors in whose current location playing in Online Casinos is legal and does not violate current legislation.
It is the responsibility of the visitor to inform himself about the current legal situation. All Games of chance are prohibited for children and young people under the age of 18.


You act as if it were hidden somewhere on our site, but it is clearly visible in the footer of every single subpage. This information is obligatory. I personally think absolutely nothing of bans: No matter if it is about drugs or gambling. If I want to consume something as an adult, then I will do so anyway. In my opinion, Player protection in Germany (not only online gambling, but also the gaming arcade sector, which is much more unregulated and worse in terms of player protection) is completely forn A... and lags miles behind other, actually "unserious" countries, such as Malta (as far as the offline sector is concerned).


Of course, Germany should NOT ban, but regulate properly(!). Say central blocking file, Verification before initial Deposit and more. Bans ultimately only bring something to organized crime. Substances that are highly addictive should generally be better regulated and people (who want and need it!) should be protected. Also alcohol and tobacco, which are hard drugs, should not be allowed to be sold in every store, but only in specialized stores where you can also exclude / lock

I personally am glad that I became a gambler and not an alcoholic! I know or knew an alcoholic, knew because he recently died of it in his 30s. The online gambling sector is only thematized, moralized and bans are demanded because there are conflicts of interest between the state and private providers. It is not about pathological gamblers in the slightest. If you don't like mendacity and hypocrisy, then you should think about it with an open mind.

Regarding chargebacks:

The whole discussion reminds me of a player who had massive problems (took out a loan to be able to play and thus 35,000€ in debt). We had a good contact and I really felt sorry for him. Actually I should not have done it but I gave him a Tip with a lawyer who could advise him on PayPal chargebacks. At that time (it was a long time ago) he had booked back a total of about 50,000€ and that was more than he had lost in online casinos. All deposits were reversed (he has also paid out from time to time - so he got back more than he had lost).

He p**sed himself afterwards where the money was in his account: "Is there a repercussion? Do I have to go to jail? ... ". I calmed him down and he told me he would never gamble again. No online casino, no casino (he hardly ever gambled at a casino).

I also talked to him on the phone and I was 100% convinced: the man will never gamble again!

... what do you think happened?

About 10 days later he gambled again and three weeks later(!) all the money was gone. Among other things, he gambled away 20,000€ on one evening in the casino (that was his first gambling evening, after the abstinence) - as much as never before on one evening. Online he has ultimately also gambled away a good 10 - 15K again.

Everyone can do what they want, I don't want to discourage anyone who might be able to save their financial life, but please do me a favor:

1. It might be possible that such a thing could have legal consequences, especially if you have not taken any further steps after the chargebacks to prove that you have really worked on yourself. Therefore, please seek help at the same time or even before! Then tackle the matter seriously. One finds places which can help one locally bspw. here: http://www.gluecksspielsucht.de/adr/index.php

2. Do not try to justify yourselves that you are morally in the right, because some corrupt state like Germany would like to maintain its gambling monopoly, prohibitions against on-line gambling demands, although one can gamble country widely around the clock everywhere "100% legally" house and yard. Please don't pretend that you wouldn't have the problems if there were no evil online casinos. If there were no OC's, then in the most cases and in the same amount would have been gambled elsewhere. This perception, which many have, really bothers me.

If I was extremely in the shit because of gambling (and this has happened to me several times in the past), then I would also think about charging back funds but I would not justify it morally, but stand by the fact that I screwed up and that I am actually not in the right but took advantage of the current legal possibilities. I would even go further and be happy that there would be online gambling, then without online gambling I would not have been able to withdraw my money, but I would still have gambled it away "legally" in gambling houses or casinos with a very high probability.

I would then also really look that I make an official and verifiable Gambling addiction therapy, because I would not be sure whether this could not have negative consequences (legal or financial nature) for me in the future - even a lawyer can be wrong. If the chargebacks could at some point have legal or financial consequences (for example at other banks or credit institutions), then I would be in a much better position with proof of gambling addiction therapy than if I had still visited casinos or continued to gamble in online casinos with the chargebacked money. Even casino visits are registered and can be proven. For German courts, this is much more verifiable than if you play in online casinos with PSC and Neteller or via a bank abroad (Revolut, Monese, etc.).

I can only agree, have also experienced that people book back money and are happy that they can now gamble again. But I do not think that you have e.g. Paypal chargebacks in the end consequences except that the Paypal account is blocked. Because Paypal usually writes a waiver of claims, which makes you legally fine.

Who never plays again following the successful chargeback should therefore have no consequences, but who nevertheless continues to play... I think that is quite observed and could perhaps lead to problems at some point. I also asked a lawyer about this, and he also warned me not to play after the chargeback in order to be on the safe side.

But why can't PayPal just take the buyer protection completely out of Online Casinos, so that just no one has the opportunity to book his money back? If you pay by Trustly, Sofort and so on, you can not get his money back. Paypal would have simply had to rewrite its terms of contract and then they could have continued to stay in the online casinos. I finds a pity that there is Paypal as a means of payment soon no more.

PayPal buyer protection is no longer available at online casinos for a long time.

You can pay with Trustly, ...demand a chargeback from the bank.

With PayPal, the whole thing with chargeback is even easier, because you can withdraw debits at most banks in the online banking account. Paypal itself has long lifted the buyer protection for gambling and would also reject such a request.
