Helps a lot!

This is really helpful as it blocks not just casinos but the crypto stuff as well. I get carried away and this is good for peace of mind. But yea mainly it's the slots stuff and it's completely blocked

Payment Problem

Hello!

I would like to request a refund for an undue charge on my credit card for an annual plan.



I requested the GamBan service last year, however, due to technical problems the program started to affect my computer in other programs, and I ended up having to format my notebook, and I did not install it again, not using GamBan for even two months.



The problem is that this year, on 02/11/2025, they charged me for the annual renewal without my consent, in the amount of €24.99, which in the real exchange rate came to R$190.28. I have not used the program in the last few months (you can check in your system), I was not asked if I was interested in renewing and I do not intend to use the program.



Given this situation, I would like to request a refund.



I would like to take this opportunity to say that, fortunately, it has been 12 months and 14 days since I have placed any more bets. I have been able to count on psychological help and family support. However, I am restructuring my finances, and this amount is very significant to me, so I am requesting a refund. I will also contact my credit card bank.



Best regards,

Matheus Magalhães

Olá!

Gostaria de solicitar o reembolso de cobrança indevida no meu cartão de crédito por um plano anual.



Eu solicitei o serviço da GamBan no ano passado, entretanto, devido a problemas técnicos o programa começou a afetar meu computador em outros programas, e acabei precisando formatar o meu notebook, e não o instalei novamente, não usando o GamBan nem por dois meses sequer.



O problema é que neste ano, no dia 11/02/2025, me cobraram a renovação anual sem terem o meu consentimento, no valor de €24,99, o que na cotação do real deu o valor de R$190,28. Eu não utilizei o programa nos últimos meses (vocês podem conferir no sistema de vocês), não me foi perguntado se eu estava interessado em renovar e não pretendo utilizar o programa.



Diante de tal situação, gostaria de solicitar o reembolso.

Aproveito para dizer que, felizmente, fazem 12 meses e 14 dias que não realizo mais apostas, pude contar com ajuda psicológica e apoio familiar. No entanto, estou me reestruturando financeiramente, e este valor é muito significativo para mim, por isso solicito o reembolso. Também entrarei em contato com o banco do meu cartão de crédito.



Cordialmente,

Matheus Magalhães

Scam company

I paid money for this product. It only worked while it was free. Luckily my subscription was on a monthly basis and not a year. I cancelled the subscription. I lost money because I had access again to one of the trading sites on my phone. NEVER USE THIS APP.

Problem with latest iOS version

Hi, in the past I’ve had a Gamban subscription which worked amazing. I wasn’t able to gamble at all. Unfortunately my latest iPhones (with new iOS versions) make it very easy to delete the app and configuration profile so I can gamble again. I already have a CRUKS subscription but I’m still able to use the TOTO winkel app and gamble anonymously in Holland. I was told last year Gamban was looking for a resolution for this problem. Did you already find it? So most important question for me now, can I buy a new Gamban subscription which 100% works and is impossible for me to delete? Thanks!

I have struggled with mental health issues for a number of years and I started gambling on line stupidly . I pay for the Gamban app which is on my iPhone . Over the month of December 2024 I was being inundated with messages regarding gambling sites . Unfortunately for me I clicked on the site to see how I was able to receive these messages. Stupidly I fell for it and started gambling again which has left me now relapsing . So much so my mental health has become more severe today . Please can you tell me how I have been able to gamble when I have your app installed and also my debit card is blocked but has enabled me to use it.
