USA.. land of the sleazy lawyers and judges is more like it! There has been at least one case here in the U.S. where a person had accumilated massive credit card debt through online gambling, and sued the bank to relinquish the debt because the bank "should have noticed that he/she had a gambling problem... and should have stopped them from using the credit card for gambling". And when you have judges that rule in favor of the person who accumilated the debt, then who could blame the Card companies for taking such a stance?
