dont expect anything until much later. Im not getting my hopes up for anything before 10 PM, as of late PP customer support has not been the best, its also really early.

E-mail I got today from my new VIP-club rep (I think my old one isn't there anymore):



We will adjust your reward accordingly, and these awards should be paid by Wednesday at the latest. Please keep in mind the actual percentage paid may be slightly less than what you would have received had you met the original target.



The December offer has not been put out yet, but we expect this week. Naturally any offer you receive will be pro-rated based on the shortened time frame. As the VIP Club program is still very new, we are working out the kinks as quickly as possible.

So I've just recently started playing on Party again (maybe last week of November).

I 4-table the $10/20 6max on there and have some unmentionable.

Can I still qualify for the VIP thing? How do I go about doing so?

I think the general process is that you email them and ask them for an offer. For me, I didn't ask, but I still got something. I have no idea how they decided how much I should get, but when I look at the bonus amount and my MGR, it turned out to be around 10% of my MGR. I don't know how this compares to what others' have gotten, but it was a nice surprise.

If you have the unmentionable, and wondering how it gets figured in, I think it works like any other bonuses which means it gets subtracted from your MGR.

follow-up to my situation.

They originally paid me $600 when they actually owed me $975 (based on the percentage of the target that I played...I did not reach the full-target).

I sent them an e-mail telling them they owed me another $375.


Today, without any explanation, they credited me with another $160.

Cheap-skates.


To my mind they still owe me another $215.
This is the exact math. I played 78% of the hands.
75% of $1250 if $975.
This is how I was told it would work...and this is the type of deal many others had as well.


At 4.1 cents per hand (what I was essentially offered originally) I made excuses that this might barely be worth it and that hopefully the offers will be better in the future.
For 3 cents per hand or less it's possible I would have passed on it.
While it doesn't sound like a lot or should be considered that big a deal I do believe I have a right to not be lied to regarding how much I am getting paid on their site.

There are other sites out there with offers that are better...who don't reneg on their offers and just give less by changing the rules after the fact.

This whole VIP Club thing is very vague to me.
I got something for Nov without even knowing about it. In one sense I'm happy for this little surprise, but had I gotten an offer, how would that have compared to what I actually got? It sounds like the bonus is based on the amount of hands played, but right now, Party doesn't have a consistent system to track your volume that is transparent to the player.

So you will say something like, "I played X hands, so I am owed $Y" But how are we supposed to prove we played X hands? Send them PT screenshots?.. not. So without some kind of system set up for us to know where we stand, I don't know how we are supposed to know how Party VIP Club is administering this VIP bonus.
