Hello,
Paradise Poker is excited to announce a 50% Deposit Bonus offer!

From Tuesday March 1st to Sunday March 20th, you will receive a 50% Bonus the very first time you make a chip purchase using the NETeller deposit method. You are only eligible if you have never used NETeller with Paradise before.

To get the bonus, enter bonus code: NETELLER50

So, if you deposit $200, we'll credit your pending bonus account an extra $100!*

NETeller is an easy-to-use, secure electronic funds transfer service. You can deposit and withdraw funds quickly using your NETeller account directly through the Paradise Poker Cashier. For more information on using this simple purchase method at Paradise Poker, visit our NETeller webpage.

Remember, the bonus is available on your first NETeller purchase made between Tuesday March 1st and Sunday March 20th, so don't miss out!

We hope to see you in Paradise.

nice reload. i wish it was for firepay tho. i think that's the only method left there that i never used.

if anyone opens a new acct there before promo expires (SHUT UP FOLKS!! open your new acct at bonuswhores or PSO or something. this post has no underlying motive but to educate! oye) anyway, new accts should make first depo with something else, then stack.

I wrote to Paradise complaining that they are offering a bonus that I don't qualify for because i have allready used neteller. This is part of the response I received.

====
This new bonus is to encourage people to set up a NETeller account. Since you already have a NETeller account you do not qualify. To hear of our new bonuses and promotions watch out for our news emails we send out from time to time. (next one should be in mid MARCH)
=====

Bah. I was hoping they would offer me a "quit complaining" bonus. Oh well, nice to know that a new reload should be coming in about 2 week-ish

So someone that has a netteller account already but has never played/deposited at paradise is SOL?

Bastards... I always thought Paradise was just ok and was starting to like them a little with yet a second bonus. Damn it...don't qualify.

no, they are golden. this would be who it is tailor-made for.

you would sign up with a credit card or firepay and get the $100 sign up. then you would use your existing NETeller acct to immediately make a second depo. bonuses stack at paradise and they never expire.

if you do not have a second way to depo, you are screwed. this is for existing clients that have never used NETeller. You can't be existing if NETeller is all you have so you are screwed if you can't do them both actually.

I posted this a couple hours ago, Link (http://forumserver.twoplustwo.com/showflat.php?Cat=&Number=1834740&page=2&view=colla psed&sb=5&o=14&fpart=1), and I was told I only received the offer because I haven't used Neteller at Paradise yet, lucky me.

OK - I am confused. I thought Granny has a classified ad for 50% to $100 for first time deposits? I also thought that Granny donated 100% of the referral to the open tourney next week. Would this be great for all or am I missing some information. Sorry if I am 'out of the Zoo loop'.

Thank you,

Jim Kuhn

Hi,

I don't have an account at Paradise yet, but I intend to start one after I clear a few bonii I already have going on.

What is the number of raked hands required for this bonus?
How long do they give to clear it?
What are the lowest limit Texas Hold'Em games there?
How are these games compared to Party and/or Pacific .5/1?

Thanks,
TomBk

Is the Granny site in the Classifieds widely viewed as the best way to join Paradise? I see they don't offer a rakeback, does anyone offer a rakeback for Paradise? Thanks, TomBk

Crap Crap Crap I don't even remember whether I've ever used Neteller to deposit at Paradise. It's been at least three years since I played there. Jebus I hope not.

however, this is just a reload for existing players that never used NETeller. like i said above, new accts should take the Granny (or ANY new acct bonus) and use firepay, then stack this NETeller reload right on top.

hope to see you next tues.

I used a MasterCard when I opened a new account at Paradise, but cashed out to Neteller. I have never made a purchase at Paradise with Neteller. Can I still get the reload bonus, or did the cash out disqualify me?

Did they send you an email? If they didn't you probably won't get the bonus.

I didn't have an account at paradise, so I opened one with the granny code, deposited $200 by visa using granny. I was credited with the granny bonus. I then immediately deposited 200 from neteller using "neteller50" but no bonus was credited. Any ideas?

Go to the upper left of this page and click on "Classified Ads". Look for the Granny/Paradise ad, it should be towards the top of the page. Click there to download, and use the bonus code "GRANNY" when opening your account. I've never seen a better sign-up bonus for Paradise than this.

To follow up:

My understanding is now that the advice given by granny in this thread appears to be incorrect. Here is the email I sent to support:

Hello,

I just opened an account with Paradise using the link from Granny Mae on 2+2. The reason I did it now as opposed to when I got around to it was that you were simultaneously running a neteller promotion. I opened my account using granny's code, and deposited $200 using my credit card. I was credited with a $100 bonus.

My understanding from a post on 2+2 was that the neteller bonus would simply stack on top of the signup bonus. However, I deposited an additional $200 using neteller and the code 'neteller50', but no additional bonus was credited.

My account name is x. Please advise.

Thanks!

Hello parappa,

Thank you for your email.

It is Paradise Poker policy that when you use two or more bonuses that we revert you to the best bonus. In this case this is the refer-a-friend bonus of $100.

Please let us know if we can be of any further assistance.

Best Regards,

Stephen

I've seen one bonus (for Paradise) better than this, but I'm afraid that if I post it, I'd get in trouble for taking Granny's business away.

Even if you can't get the Neteller bonus right now, would now be a good time for people to sign up for Paradise, since Paradise isn't letting people get this bonus that they signed up during? Maybe if you were to sign up once the mid-March reload comes, they wouldn't allow you to get that bonus, since they aren't letting people who sign up now get this one?

I deposited via Firepay, got my first $100 bonus, played some hands while waiting for my money to get to Neteller, then deposited $200 with the neteller50 code, got no bonus added, emailed support, and they added the extra $100 to my bonus account.

[/ QUOTE ]Hi parappa,

Paradise personell may not know who Granny Mae is as that is Granny's screen name on this forum, but they would surely have understood bonus code GRANNY. Also, Paradise is not obligated to honor any statements posted by a random member of this forum, although they would likely do so as long as the statement conformed to their own policy anyway.

I suppose it might have supported your cause if you had wrote "Someone I know did x and y happened"; but I would suggest that expressly bringing this forum to the attention of the staff at Paradise or any other on-line casino is probably not in the your long term best interests nor that of the general membership here. I don't think bonus whores are the primary market demographic the casinos are trying to attract with their promotions.

Cheers, =TomBk

Whatever. Paradise has an ad on this site that says "Granny." They understood what I meant and didn't want me to double-dip the bonus, which is fine. I don't feel particularly aggrieved, but I prefer to keep things friendly with the places I play, even if I don't get a small, hard-to-clear bonus. I got the neteller info from a post on 2+2. I suppose I could've lied to them, but why?

That said, Granny, who _is_ a paradise affiliate and not a random poster, said that her(his?) opinion was that you could do the sign up bonus then the neteller bonus immediately. Read the thread. This statement is incorrect. Mho is that anyone who wants to get both bonuses should make the first deposit and play/wait some amount of time (perhaps as short as a few hands or few minutes) before doing the second.
