You've asked about the possibility of receiving rakeback but at this time, Full Tilt Poker does not offer rakeback directly to players.
There are a number of affiliate companies which offer rakeback if players sign up to Full Tilt Poker through their website. However, it appears that you were referred to Full Tilt Poker from an affiliate which does not offer rakeback. We are unable to switch your account from this affiliate to another, as our agreement with affiliates prohibits this.
We understand that you are interested in such promotions in the future and if the situation changes, our players will be the first to know and we will contact you when we have more news.
I signed in through BRM, but I think this can't make any difference I believe, or does FT have to pay BRM for my signup? Seems to me that they just don't want to give rakeback and that it's a standard answer.

Full Tilt doesn´t give rakeback to regular players (unless you´re playing for $1.000´s and they don´t want to lose your traffic). You HAVE to sign up for a "rakeback" deal via a participating site.
I signed up through BRM for a No Deposit Bonus, so I´ll probably never get rakeback from them unless I´m generating a lot of income for them and I can convince them. And THAT´s not gonna happen anytimes soon, I think...

I just don't get them, I mean i'm a microstakes player, but generate a lot of rake there. This month I had days off more then 50 ftp with even one day off 200 ftp. If you calculate I play there since december and I've had more active periods then I can't see why they don't want to give it, ok for them it's peanuts my rake, but for microstakes it's a lot. Also if I hve the roll to go higher i'll do it, that's what i've told them in my mail also, but they don't want to do it i guess.

I play micros and lows as well, but I think that´s WAY below what they´re looking for.
If you´ve ever seen a Deuces Cracked learning video, you´ll know what I mean. These guys play 4 to 12 cash tables at the same time for $1.000 per table. .....while they´re explaining the hands and what they´re doing!!! You wouldn´t believe it!
Guess we´ll have to build up our stakes a little bit...

In the time I registered here I wasn't so familiar with things like rakeback , heck I even never heard about it. Although I contacted BRM and will post here if there is any solution, might help some of you guy's also in the future. I mean the time I took the NDB it was still like 50$, but if you count,if you only would play 15 hours a week at small stakes on two tables of 0.02/0.05 no limit hld em, even then in the long run rakeback gives you more. Although in the future i'll be more carefull with these things, NDB is very good if you are a student like me and can't risk a lot of money, but on the other hand if you decide to play cashgames rakeback killsyou at micorstakes(well more or less). Today I saw a pot of less then five dollars for exemple, decided to look what the rake was and it was like 40 cent, may seem not a lot, but in a small pot like this it's a lot, and in 20 pots like these it's quite big for micro in my opinion.

hi myeng i think you have misunderstood how the rake back work, you say it was like 40 cent in 1 pot for rake and 20 pots like this is quite a big amount for micro,
you only get a percentage back off the rake 27% at full tilt, not the full amount plus there other players in the pot too who get a percent of the rake too
here my friend read one of my early post on rake back explains it all

Yea I know how it works, but maybe in my post that wasn't clear. But I still believe it's quite high for small bankrolls, and that 27 percent that some sites offer for ft is a lot if you play multiple hours per day and on more then one table. Especially in cashgames, if you play more tournaments it can make a difference too but not so high as in cashgames.
