Dear Gamble-Joe members, I would like to tell you about my reclamation process at 888 Casino to encourage others to do the same.

About me: I am Lukas 24 years, started with 21 now and then sports betting after a Bigwin with 10 euros bet and a win of over 20,000 € it began that I slowly but surely wandered into the online casino. After the 20 thousand euros were very quickly planned with the repayment of a loan for a car and other things. I began to gamble more and more and have taken out loans to feed my addictive behavior I have lost pretty much every sports bet and every spin in the casino was a loss until I have accumulated debts in the range of 70 thousand euros, until the day I had my parents inaugurated I played every day, since then not a cent more.

I will now start the legal action against 888 and would like to take you a little, I am working with a process financier and an Austrian lawyer because I myself am also from Austria. A letter from the lawyer was already sent to 888 with the request for transfer of the casino loss of about 20000 euros, today runs out the deadline for feedback and we will send on Monday The statement of claim to the court.

The prospect of winning the lawsuit is according to the lawyer at 100% because the Austrian monopoly exceeds the freedom to provide services on which the casinos rausreden. OGH decision to this effect OGH 4 Ob 124/17i.

I will always report to you as soon as there is something new.
And YES I know I am to blame but I am of the opinion that here simply a Reglementireung hergehört to better protect players!

LG

Lukas

You were very happy to take the Big Win.

Then you gambled a lot and lost a lot, yes, that's your own fault.

Player protection is always given, you can always and everywhere set limits.

Now sue the casino, I honestly do not want to offend you, but such behavior is more than impudent in my eyes.

The casino has provided its service, even if you have lost.

I find that really antisocial, sorry!

And the lawyer rubs his hands.
Alone the statement that one wins 100%, says everything about the lawyer.

No, you can't write to each other because you're both new
I could mediate between you two, but I am on the side of Jubla2014

Good luck with the "spent money back"

This is about the fact that you should not have the opportunity to "use" so much money in such a short time with 21 years.

And there is corresponding case law of the lawyer and process financiers would not take the Risk for free if it was only 1%.

And I think many here it will still meet whole livelihoods to gamble away because one is simply blinded by Gambling addiction!

I do not understand this double standard, as a 21 year old you should not have the opportunity to use so much money in a short time, but at the same time you should have the opportunity as a 21 year old to win in a short time 20000 euros and get paid out, as it was in your case?

If you consider yourself a gambling addict, I would first tackle this problem, that would be my priority.
I don't know how it is in Austria, but with this conspicuous gambling behavior you should first see if there isn't the possibility to block you from Online Casinos in general and permanently.
Not that a loop arises from this and you gamble away this money again with a possible repayment and the cycle starts all over again.

And what will your super lawyer of the eastern alpine republic do if he wins the case 100% in Austria and shows 888 the middle finger --- throwing cotton balls to Gibraltar?

At the latest before the European Court of Justice the casino gets right, freedom of services within the EU.

As mentioned in the article, I have not gambled away a single cent more, I do not have to justify myself.
There are enough people who consider this step to dare and I would like to encourage.

To Wettibernd
e.g:

The European Court of Justice (ECJ) has made a landmark ruling in the matter of gambling monopoly. The prohibition under Portuguese law for companies such as bwin to offer Games of chance over the Internet is thus compatible with the free movement of services, the ECJ ruled on Tuesday.
