what kind of porche?

Re: Party re-load, UK players only!
 

I've had to mail support on this one after the deposit. I got an email back telling me they had forwarded it to the appropriate department and that they would get back to me within 24-48 hours but that any hands that I played between now and then would count toward the bonus.

Re: Party re-load, UK players only!
 

Any non-UK players try it?

Re: Party re-load, UK players only!
 

At last. For the first time in this country I am happy to live in the UK.
Oh no, it rains again. And the food is tasteless. And houses are too expensive and too old. And I pay too much tax. And Tony has been re-elected. God save the Queen!

Hmm. You should definitely try it. You're a UK player and they seem to be somewhat disorganised on this promotion.

Re: Party re-load, UK players only!
 

Has ANYONE actually got the bonus. I got the email, deposited, no bonus, emailed support:

Exactly. Why would they want to review our accounts? Is it BWing related? Just remember the recent issue with Empire.

Anyway let's stay cool and patient for the time.

Dear Alison,

Thank you for contacting us.

A bonus amount of "$100.00" has been added to your bonus account. You are required to play 700 raked hands before 13-JUN-2005, as per the release restriction and the amount will be credited to your real money account. You can always check the status of your bonus and how many raked hands you have played, just by clicking on the "Cashier" option on our Lobby, and then clicking on "Bonus Account".

A raked hand is any hand in which a rake (house drop) is taken out of the pot. To accumulate raked hands you need to participate in hands (any game, any limit) where a rake is collected. Hands played at tournaments are not counted towards the raked hands count since rake is not collected in tournaments.

Bonus Amount will automatically be added to your Bonus Account where it will be held until you play raked hands equal to five (5) times the Bonus Amount within thirty (30) days of making your deposit (the "Release Requirements").

Dear Alison,

Thank you for contacting us.

In response to your email, the restriction for "POKERACENOW" bonus in terms of raked hands is 7 times and not 5 times, please do forward us the email that you received which denotes the same, so that we can look into this.

I mailed the original email to them AGAIN along with the URL for the bonus. Surely they will change it now [img]/images/graemlins/confused.gif[/img]
