However, the 30 day waiting period is still on. It shows it on the bonus restricitions, and I spoke with customer support. The response from customer support was, "Ignore the notification that the 30 day is off, it is still ON"

the usual 100 raked hands?

[mmanne]

Yeah, 30 days and 100 raked ...

anyone checked to see if the $600 max deposit has been lifted allowing you to collect the full $100?

[Baulucky]

I depo'ed 670 almost 30 days ago, no problem.

[arkady]

1 month ago, I had no problem depositing 700

right now I cannot deposit more than 600.

apparently they are not very bright.

According to their newsletter, the bonus doesn't start until 5pm Eastern today. I'm sure they'll probably raise their limits as soon as the promo starts.

[arkady]

Interesting, maybe you are right - I remember last month people were complaining that the max. deposit was not enough yet when I went ahead and deposited it allowed 700 bucks no problems. I think you are on to something!

Stupid questions, but I've never played at Absolute. Does the 30 day period mean that they dont release the bonus until after 30 days have expired, or you have to actually play 30 days on site to get the bonus? Can you withdraw money from the site before the bonus is released and still receive the bonus? Finally, is this offer open to everyone?

[mmanne]

The offer is open to everyone. Here's how the 30 day thing works. You deposit 670, and get credit for a bonus of 100. Your account has a balance of 770. Let's say you then play and win 30. If you cashout more than 30, you will lose the bonus (but customer support usually contacts you to make sure you understand this).

make sense?

As I've said before Customer support at Absolute is awesome, very fast, very clear, and very friendly.

Are you absolutely positive that you can even withdraw the $30 and not forfeit the bonus? According to the site:

"If cash out request is made prior to meeting the 30 day/100 raked hand restriction the deposit bonus is forfeited."

Seems to say any cash out request, tho, if what you say is true, it could mean just the cash out request of your initial deposit.

Man, is this even worth it? I dont really have a cash flow problem, but the thought of sinking $700 into a site (other than a site I usually play at) for a month irks me.

Been ding this for months with no problems. AP is actually a good fishy site to play on. The 30 day restriction has never been a problem for me.

If you don't have a cashflow problem, it is definately worth it. The easiest $100 bonus I know. And they offer it often.

[arkady]

Along with JD and Jek I play regularly on AP - its basically our home/2nd home, dont know how many other places Jek whores (probably cant count that high) and so for us its worth it.

P.S. For anyone reading this, I talked to them and they lift the requirement during promotions for deposit maximums. So 700 is good to go, if need be.

"Ignore the notification that the 30 day is off, it is still ON"


meaning it will always remain at 30 days, or that the new policy has not started?

what's up with the 180? bad business to change something like this then reverse themselves.

On the recommendation of the zoo, I just made a $500 deposit into Absolute for the 20% initial deposit bonus. One question: why doesn't my account show the existence of the bonus? Will it post after 100 hands? Thx.
