Credit Card rip off on Deposits

[rosco]

Deposited money into Mansion last month

Just received my statement and for my £50 deposit I have been charged a £2.50 Cash handling fee.

I have also been charged the interest from this Day aswell. Only .58p.

I was not aware of this and think this is wrong.

I deposit a lot and withdraw through Credit cards.

I am sure this is the first time this has happened but I will check my statements. The credit card company stated it was a cash withdraw of a lottery which is why I was charged.

Anyone else had this?

Common practice now with credit cards. They're treating all gambling deposits as cash advances.
