Thank you for contacting 888poker.
My name is Melanie from the Member Support Department and it is a pleasure to assist you today.

Hiya mate, im not quite sure why your acc doesn't meet the eligibility req.? I signed up through 888 themselves after looking at the email from brm, didn't even realise it was brm affiliated i thought admin just wanted to share the bonus. ( of course i wouldve signed up thru brm had i have known ) As far as i was aware it was an independant offer from 888....me and 2 of my buddies signed up, sent off the email to support and all 3 had our bonus' within 5 minutes, literally. No problems, no fuss, and great support. Hope you get this resolved fella as its a super soft site with money to be made. Maybe Admin could have a look see?? Did you check that its available to Aus?? Gl dude

No sorry, we don't have access to 888 pokers backend so we can't see anything related to your account.
That's a lie. Admin actually RUNS all the poker sites affiliated with BRM - he's just used your 8 bucks to buy 8 $1 hookers. Or maybe it was 1 $8 hooker.. I dunno

I downloaded about a dozen sites months ago but hadnt depositted with 888 but when i heard of the no-deposit bonus i had a look at the site and thought it was a whole lot better than previously and decided to deposit £20 and have a look and i said to the rep i spoke to that i didnt think it fair that i was depositting and not getting ain when people where getting a no-deposit bonus and he decided to give me the $8 on top,and with the 1st time deposit bonuses i have cashed in 3 out of6 of them albeit nothing to shout about but ein is a bonus and my b/roll is now starting to grow,its a good wee site and plenty of action and these sites are like everyone,just haggle with them and u end up with allsorts of bonuses,tournament tokens,etc!hope u get the bonus and gl at the tables.
