Re: BYE BYE POKERNOW
 

I take it we can leave our money at PokerNow and it will be their when they are absorbed by Party Poker?

Re: BYE BYE POKERNOW
 

Well, I just created a PN account and got the initial deposit bonus, plan on playing through it tonight (moved it up a day, I suppose).

Overzealous? Naah.. :-)

(Having done -- and failed to cash out -- the expekt bonus on Monday, I can't get screwed out of two bonuses in a single week can I? Hey, stop laughing.)

Re: BYE BYE POKERNOW
 

can you still create an account at Party if you've got one at PokerNOW?

Re: BYE BYE POKERNOW
 

Thank you for contacting us.

Further to your query, I would like to inform you that PartyPoker and
Pokernow.com are two separate entities that are supported by the same gaming
system and request you to ignore the rumors.

Any promotions or policies mentioned are specific to each site. This would not
allow a player from PartyPoker.com to avail a promotion mentioned on Pokernow or
vice a versa (For ex: The referral bonuses cannot be availed across both sites).

Also, would like to inform you that we do not allow a player to open more than
one account in our poker gaming system which is powered and regulated by
iGlobalMedia.com so request you to close one of your accounts.

If you have any questions or suggestions, please do not hesitate to contact our
Customer Care Department at any time. We are here 24/7 to assist you via email.

Thank you for choosing us as your online gaming site!

I then asked if I closed my original party account would my player points and funds be transferred to my new (aka pokernow) account.

Please be informed that your bonus points or funds from your party poker account
will not be transfered to any other account after you opt to close your account.

The bonus points will remain in your account till you opt to redeem the points,
if you wish to close the account and also transfer the funds into some other
account then you will have to cashout the funds from your account.

If you want further details on the same do not hesitate to contact us at
1-800-852-4719 and we will be glad to assist you.

Have A Great Day.

What is unclear to me is whether or not closing a pokernow would automatically get the funds transferred to my original party account.

Re: BYE BYE POKERNOW
 

In regards to whether or not funds from closed pokernow account would be directly deposited into a party account I got this gem

Thank you for contacting us.

In response to your mail, we request you to contact the respective site with
regards to account information. Also Partypoker has its own deposit options and
we do not accept or transfer funds from or to any other website.

If you have any questions or suggestions, please do not hesitate to contact our
Customer Care Department at any time. We are here 24/7 to assist you via email.

Thank you for choosing us as your online gaming site!

I don't see how pokernow which is now party qualifies as a seperate website but whatever.

Hope this all helped.

I highly doubt funds would automatically be transfered. Since that would require linking the PokerNow accounts to the Party accounts. For those who have accounts at both sites, I don't think they are linked now. And to further complicate the situation, there are lots of people who have accounts with Party, PokerNow, Empire, Multi, Eurobet, and Intertops. There is no way they would know which account to transfer funds to even if they were all linked.

Re: BYE BYE POKERNOW
 

I thought something was up. I'd just signed up with PokerNow as an affiliate last week, and 4 days later I got the "you have not signed up enough people and we are cancelling this" e-mail. When I e-mailed back I was just told "sorry nothing we can do". Figured something big was a-brewin'.

This is true!
 

I was sent an email about the termination of my contract and given double my benefits for the month. Damn just as my affiliate account was taking off....... [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img] [img]/images/graemlins/confused.gif[/img] [img]/images/graemlins/blush.gif[/img]
