      So i don’t think they are, but they literally kinda are.

      They literally, are not. But if that’s what you want to believe i cannot stop you.

      And yes it is their right. Just like other services have the right to cancel your account if you are in breach with their policies.

      E.g. issuing chargebacks, several months later just because you regret your purchase.

          Yes… and if you try to issue a chargeback for a transaction you simply regret. That is you engadging in fradulent behavior. And the company have every right to ban your account for trying to defraud them.

          Keep up…

              Yes. That is the intended function.

              But you know. Some people. They do things that are not intended. They’re not supposed to. But they do it anyway. Maybe that’s a difficult concept to grasp for a German. But take my word for it when I say that some people do those things.

              And you keep claiming that its illegal for companies to cancel someone’s account as consequence.

              Please show me the EU guideline stating that. If you can’t. Please shut up and realize you don’t know shit.

                  What you link still does not make it illegal for a company to ban your account if you try to defraud them.

                  There are many situations where your right for a refund is expired. Most commonly. After a certain time. I can’t refund my purchase of CS 1.6. It’s not illegal for Valve to refuse my refund for that game.

                  And despite the query you sent chatGPT None of its answers point to an actual law that says it’s illegal for a service to cancel your account if you endadge in defraudment.

                  It’s not unreasonable to agree to losing the right to use a service if you attempt to defraud said service. That’s not an unfair stipulation in a ToS.

                  Let me know when your successful lawsuit comes through. Good luck on that.

                    for a company to ban your account if you try to defraud them

                    You’re completely missing the point. If you have a contract broken on you, a chargeback is a completely legitimate mechanism to recoup funding as the contract was breached. It is not fraud to do this.
