Default Ready for September Bonuses?

I am just looking ahead to the next batch of bonuses. I nearly emptied Stars, Paradise and UB back to Neteller so that I won't miss any this time. What can we expect with the first of the month and Labor Day weekend? Any speculations beyond the Crypto skins?

Anyone? Don't be shy, we like optimism. [img]/images/graemlins/cool.gif[/img]

I heard from a very unreliable source that CowTipPoker is offering a 100% up to $1000 bonus for a very small window of time on a day to be announced the day after the sign up for offer ends. How is that for a kick ass bonus??

My Neteller is full and ready. We haven't seen an all around Party/Empire bonus for a long time and Paradises last one was for Firepay only. Stars hasn't had one for awhile either, but they had a bunch that were bundled together in the May-July area.

I just signed up for Firepay and Neteller accounts a couple days ago and today both of them made a small deposit in my bank account and I verified these amounts at Firepay and Neteller. I was just curious as to why several people were talking about depositing funds in their Neteller account ahead of time so they could take advantage of a possible Paradise bonus. I thought if I used the Instacash method that the money immediately showed up and would be available to send to Paradise. Is this wrong?

Instacash costs 8.9% of your deposit which is an outrageous fee.

I agree, this is an unacceptable fee. Neteller claims that "some" sites will pay the fee for you. The only site that I know of that will do this is Pacific, though they then consider the amount of the fee a bonus that you have to play off. Does anyone know of any other poker sites that will pay the instacash fee if you use that method of deposit?

I used instacash at UB a few months ago and there was no fee (for me).

Wire transfers usually take 4-5 days to clear and show up in your account. Instacash is a loan from Neteller until the funds do clear. The "service charge" comes out to about 2% interest per day for a 4 day loan.

Seems to be Paradise is "Holiday Friendly." I would put money that they will do a bonus.

Hell Absolute only needs it to be the weekend, so I'd suspect that they will have a bonus as well.

As far as the Party skins....well here's hope'n
