FYI, I just got this email from Paradise. My account has been inactive for several month.

I checked www.paradisepoker.com (http://www.paradisepoker.com) and didn't see any word of this as being offered to the general public, but it never hurts to ask I guess.

anyone want to e-mail and ask if they'll let us use Neteller for the bonus?

I have a firepay account, but it is linked to an older unused bank account.

Does anyone know if FirePay allows you to change accounts? If so, what is the turnaround/verfication time involved?

Damn, I like clearing Paradise bonuses too. There's a strange sort of satisfaction from getting the "you've cleared $10" bonus message.

Despite having read your post, I made the deposit with the code anyway (long day). It worked, got the 20%.

No, sorry. I was responding to the guy that said the bonus didn't start until tomorrow. I used Firepay.

Ditto here, but NETeller bonus "in the very near future". I think I missed the last one.




Hello ,

Unfortunately, the bonus promotion is specifically for FirePay this time, as it was only for NETeller on the last promotion. We will have another NETeller bonus in the very near future.

We apologize for this inconveniece.
Best Regards,

Lisa,

I have not used firepay in so long that my account had to be renewed. I know I left $5 in there to keep my account active which is no longer there. Anyway, I proceeded to make a deposit and noticed a $2.99 fee. Hmmmm? For a $200 bonus, this is a minor inconvenience but I want to make sure this will be the only fee. Anyone jump through their hoops yet?

Does Paradise require you to withdraw the same way you deposit? If I remember correctly, Firepay charges you a fee to withdraw also.

Thanks.....

Firepay will charge you a $5 fee to withdraw funds. Not sure about paradise, never played there. If they do have such a requirement, it will probably be only for the amount of your original deposit. Any winnings will be available through other methods.

I just came across this post on Friday. I've been playing at Paradise so I wanted to try and get the $200 bonus but I didn't have a FirePay account. On Friday I signed up for an account and was hoping by Tuesday I would be able to verify everthing as their site states that verification usually takes 2 business days.

After looking more at their site today it appears that after my bank account is verified it will then take another 2-3 business days to transfer money from my bank account to my FirePay account. Is this correct?

I've been using PayPal for 3-4 years now and with them you can pay a merchant by instant transfer from your bank account and the merchant immediately receives payment in their account. It looks like with FirePay that I'm not able to do that unless I do the maximum $300 per week Express Fund option. Is this correct?

Also, with the Express Fund their site states that you can send $300 per week. If I expressed $300 today would I then be able to express another $300 on Monday so I can get $120 total in bonus from Paradise? I wasn't sure how they treated a "week" on Firepay.

Thanks in Advance

I'm not sure how new accounts work, but I just did a Firepay transfer from my bank account for the full 1K and it was instant. I've had this account since September but I haven't used it for probably 9 months or so (do everything in Neteller these days). If I remember correctly, though, once the account was verified, all transactions were instantly accepted (though it took a couple days for your bank account balance to be decreased).

Does firepay charge you money when you cash out from a site back into firepay?

BTW I did express and money was there right away. Though it was annoying trying to guess the questions you have to answer since they spell things wrong and I wasn't sure if they were trying to trick me or not.

I don't think they charge you to just bring the money back to Firepay, though they might to actually get your money in your hands or back to your bank. Either way, I bought in with Firepay and am cashing out to my Neteller.

Not sure of the answers to your other ?s, but I also just did a transfer from my bank account to FirePay. It as instant and cost me $2.99.

I now have a $200 bonus in Paradise and am 5% of my way through clearing it after 1 1/2 hours.

I'm playing it through now too. I seem to clear $10 every 30 minutes or so 3 tabling. Unfortunately I've lost $50 so far...
