= over 600 euros in account management fees deducted from the account.

Hello dear forum.

It's about the following.
Last year the gambling escalated a bit, which means that I made a lot of depositors from my current account in October, November and December.
Even I find it unbelievable that there were more than 600 lol.

You know, casino current account = not so good.

Anyway, the account management fees arrived at the beginning of January and I was more than horrified.
Over 650 euros in account management fees.

The thing is, my bank charges 1 euro per real-time transfer.

However, in my eyes these are not real-time transfers.

I mean: a real time transfer is when I choose it myself and transfer it to an account.
But I have selected bank Deposit at the casino, of course it is in real time on the account, but it is also when I pay e.g. at Lieferando immediately by bank transfer.

In any case, the bank declares this as a real-time transfer and wants to cash in big time.
I also asked the casino support and they said that they think the bank's fees are very high and the casino itself charges a 0% fee for bank deposits.

I called the bank and the employee was overwhelmed by all the deposits and withdrawals.

I refused and said I would call again tomorrow or write an email.

Now I'm also afraid that there could be trouble and that I should perhaps leave it alone to avoid getting into even more trouble.

If they take a close look at everything first ...
Casino is e.g. Bitstarz but also others.
I don't necessarily want to write about the bank publicly here, but you may be reading this.

What do you think I should do? ..
Let it go and write off the money, but hopefully not get into any more trouble?
I could really do with the money.

Have you ever paid a real time transfer fee to the casino for a bank deposit?

Thanks for your help...

Yes, that's really annoying. But it's actually quite common. My bank even charges 1.5 euros for such transfers. I don't think you should do anything else here and rather keep your feet still.

That's how I know it. At the Sparkasse you have to select this separately. I have never had to pay an extra fee for depositors. But I don't know which bank that is for you and what it says in their terms and conditions. I remember that some of them have actually charged an extra fee. It also depends on the account. There was at least one account type at Sparkasse where you had to pay much lower account fees, but you actually had to pay per transfer. However, these were by no means €1/transfer, but cent amounts. Maybe you can browse through the forum and see if you can find similar cases.

By the way, you don't have to name the branch. Do you seriously think that they have nothing better to do and are in GJ waiting for one of their customers to come out? They must have tens of thousands of customers^^

What can you do? Either pay or don't pay. If you pay, then that's the end of it for you, possibly saving you trouble and nerves. If you don't pay, then for better or worse you'll have to hire a lawyer. As I said, a look at the terms and conditions would help. Do you generally have to pay €1 per transfer elsewhere (e.g. online store) when using Sofortüberweisung (which is the payment method you used)?

That's normal, some banks also charge 3 percent for deposits and withdrawals..that's the law. With 1 Euro you are still well served

If someone doesn't know that beforehand and then always deposits 1 euro wisely, that would be the absolute disaster.

So my bank doesn't take anything per payment. Not even if I choose real-time transfer. But I only play in German licensed casinos. I know that Sparkasse charges 0.25 cents per real-time transfer. May I ask which bank charges such awesome fees?

C24 everything is free, even the real-time transfer ... there's also good interest and the app is also great. I've rarely been so satisfied with a bank 👍

Thanks to everyone for the answers and many thanks for the Tip about C24 Bank.


In contrast to many other banks, I've found almost nothing but good things about this bank.

Especially all real-time transfers are free of charge.

Does anyone else have good bank and current account experiences?

I would still be interested to know which bank charges a euro for this or any fees at all for depositors in the casino. by the way, I am with Sparkasse & NEVER pay a fee for real-time transfers..not even at the end of the month. do you only pay account management fees once a year or per quarter that you never noticed it before?

something like that happened to me once, I bought 1 euro Scratch cards 3 times and then had to pay 5 euros in fees per payment. LOL, luckily there were only 3 of them.

Also online and by real-time transfer? Why should it cost a bank so much more to execute transfers in real time? In any case, there should be a maximum amount before something like this happens

What I don't understand is why they are asking for this retrospectively? Normally they should simply debit these costs every time a depositor makes a payment.

Quite simply: annual statement.
