Gambler receives €500,000 back through court.

The court declared the gaming agreements between the player and the gambling companies null and void because Betsson was operating in the Netherlands at the time without a license. As a result, the agreements violated the Gaming Act. Because Betsson did not appear at the hearing, the company was convicted in absentia.

"This ruling confirms that duped gamblers can not only recover their losses, but are also entitled to interest-on-interest. Accrued annually, this interest can add up considerably - as it now appears,"

Major breakthrough for injured parties

According to Dynamite Netherlands, this ruling is a legal breakthrough. It is the first time a court has awarded interest from the day the money was lost. This recognizes that gambling companies have unlawfully profited from the deposits of Dutch players for years, without supervision or a license.

The player, who had lost almost everything due to his gambling addiction, can finally make a fresh start with this ruling.

"He is now fully rehabbed and wants to use the money to rebuild his life," Thakoerdien said.

It is our mission to bring justice to people affected by illegal gambling," Thakoerdien said.
