Full Tilt cashout whining
 

Requested a cashout from Full Tilt on Saturday after realizing their bonus was futile (and I think UB bonuses are easy to clear). It's Thursday...no dough...emailed support with the standard "where the hell is my money" email, but haven't heard back. I like how these new sites really make an effort with customer support. I mean sure pokerstars actually has GAMES, but they reply to your emails in 10 minutes and pay you your money in a timely fashion. Who needs that?

Should be called Full Suck Poker then.

That bonus system is disgusting. If you are a micro player, you will win the WSOP before getting your full bonus.

Yeah, FT's bonus crappiness has been discussed here.

I was playing heads up and short 8/16, 15/30, 2/4NL and 5/10 NL and still not getting anywhere. I think I cleared $140 worth. Luckily I won there, but at the same time the bastards haven't paid me so i guess that doesn't count yet.

Deposited $50 on friday, withdrew a second later, by monday it was in my neteller account. And it probably takes longer to clear the bonus playing shorthanded since the bonus uses EVERYONE's rake not just your own...

Yes, which is pretty dumb, because it discourages people from starting games.

You cleared $140 worth of bonus in a week, and you have 10 weeks to clear the rest? That sounds pretty good. Of course a 100% bonus should take longer to clear than a 20% bonus. Since you can clear 20% at a time, it's like you get five 20% bonuses.

You will clear the bonus faster at a full table, just like the bonus at many other sites.

Maybe you should have given an easier to clear 20% bonus, and then offer 4 20% reloads as soon as one was cleared, all with a 120 max cap.

Both of my cashouts were processed within the same time frame as other sites, from Party skins to Paradise to TGC.
