      Yes it is. A charge-back is you going to your bank, and making them “undo” the purchase.

      A service is very much allowed to cancel your accounts if you do a charge-back.

          Yeah ok. Buy a game. Do a chargeback. And it’s illegal for them to them ban your account?

              That’s not what I’m talking about either.

              And yes. If someone does a charge-back instead of a refund. Something that is intended for fraud. They are misusing it. Which is a clear breach, and it would not be surprising if you could get banned for that.

              You think all German laws are EU laws?

              Ubisoft deleted lots of accounts from people everywhere due to “inactivity”, even if you had paid games on it. I didn’t see a successful lawsuit from germans.

                  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.
