I am having tons of problems when I try to sign up under an affiliate so I get some of my rake back. I have deleted all cookies from IE and Mozilla and reinstalled party. Everytime I sign up I enter the affiliates code. Everytime he checks whether or not I am registered under him it says that I am registered under another user and will not be tracked to him. I have also used a friends computer that never had any type of poker software on it and I made sure to delete all cookies hto create a new account. Anyone else have problems like this when signing up under an affiliate???

Sounds like a rip off..

Fact:
You can't check and see if a specific user is attached to you. You can check and see if you got any signups on your tracker as an affiliate. But you will only see a number. Not anything about a specific person and you can't certainly check and see if a player is attached to another person.
The only possible explaining is that your affiliate had e-mailed party and asked them directly about you.

But to me it sounds like the only thing your affiliate wants you to do is to enter his code... and hopes you will continue to play there..

If he had been a proper affiliate he could e-mail party and say to them that he had promoted partypoker to you but you entered the wrong code when you signed up. Then they could fix it so you are tagged to him..

As a casino affiliate, I can tell you that not every sign-up goes smoothly. Despite a player's best efforts, often times a sign-up just doesn't register to the affiliate's account, and not all sites will be willing to help.

Deleting cookies is usually enough, but if you want to be really safe you should also delete your temporary internet files as well as run an ad-aware scan and a spybot s&d scan.

From what you wrote, it sounds like your problem might be that you've already registered an account, and are now trying to register a new one. If you've already given your name, address, email address etc., this will explain why the affiliate isn't getting credited for your new sign ups. If you've already made a deposit under an old account, then this is especially likely.

This is wrong.

Again, wrong. There is another way.

But to me it sounds like the only thing your affiliate wants you to do is to enter his code... and hopes you will continue to play there..

That's just stupid.

If he had been a proper affiliate he could e-mail party and say to them that he had promoted partypoker to you but you entered the wrong code when you signed up. Then they could fix it so you are tagged to him..

Wrong again. Do you claim to be an affiliate? If so, you are sorely misinformed.

Ok.. I apologise if am wrong. I have never seen or heard a way to do that. I should not have spoken so fast about a thing that I didn’t know about.

But instead of a saying This is wrong.. Can you explain how you do that?

And also Do you claim to be an affiliate?.. What have that to do with the question??

And btw why do you think that is wrong..?
I have had a signup enter the signup code wrong. All I did was to e-mail party’s affiliate department and said that I had promoted party poker to him. And I gave them his Name and the Username he registered with at party.
And then they switched him over to my tracker..

I might have been wrong about how you could check if a player is tagged to a person but the last part I’m definitely not wrong about.

And I still don't understand how you can check it.. Are we talking about party pokers affiliate program? Care to tell?
