Hey there, I'm new to this site, normally play on fulltilt poker and pokerstars. They has the offer for partypoker, and specifically stated that if you DID have an account prior, but had not used it in 90 days or more, (tried it 2 years ago), and never deposited money on it, then you are eligible. It says that I was not tracked. I followed every single one of those instructions, so I find it a bit redundant that many of the offers that I signed up for get rejected and/or I am not eligible.
Don't get me wrong I like the site, but It seems like a bit of a scam with the extremely vague "possible" reasons given for the rejection.
I want to know what you guys think and if you have anything to add, say, or advice to give.

I'm not sure, but I think to be eligible for promotions should be back in the room, I mean NEVER have subscribed to it, you must read very well the general terms and specific to each room

It's definitely not a scam - as many regs here will confirm. I've taken heaps of NDB - and received them all - one of them there was a problem and took a couple weeks - but I received the rest in 12-72hrs.
Sometimes there are problems when your account exists already - I understand there is instructions for it - but the poker room is the one who rejects your claim - not bankrollmob. They just forward your information and Party is the one that validates it.
If you want a good offer, try the Players Only - I believe this is open to Canada - you get $50 to start with - to be used in $GTD MTT games only - it's a really soft site - easy to cash in the games. And others have said on here that cash-out is also easy.

Thanks for the info folks, to clarify for dule-vu. I like the site forums, etc. but the offers have seemed a bit suspect, I have been to other sites and not had an issue. Could be due to the party poker stipulations as jesse stated. I think the biggest thing that I don't understand is the loyalty by some of the people here, you get some private freerolls on, say full tilt, and those people will not share the password for the freeroll. (obviously to give them a better chance at winning.) These freerolls have been leaked all over the place and I know of a few people that leak them to the other sites that they are also on and its unfortunate. I'm a big "team" person, I would beat the s**t out of one my players if they leaked info to another team. Its near impossible to control, but like I said unfortunate.

party poker's offer is not a scam. i just asked for it 5 days ago. less than 12 hours, the money was deposited into my account.was surprised how fast it was actually.i thought it would take a couple of a days.been playing with my free money on sng's and small stakes cash games.cashed-in in their new player freeroll as well
also, i'm well on pace to get the bonus $25 if i don't lose all of my bankroll (fingers crossed)..150 points in 30 days..i already have 40+ playing 2 hours at night before dozing off

Party Poker they don't take USA---- Players Only & GRT888 downloaded both 2 weeks before they came out with free money-----casinos I played most of them from other forums-------so I can't crap for trying----under a black cloud I get a flush other guy gets boat--I get a boat lose to a bigger boat- Had trip Q's lost to trip K's I mean wtf is going on damn poker gods ain't liking me much I give up
------------ Also you won't get rejected if you didn't have an acct' at any of them before and also like Party Poker no USA players so there is absolutely nothing wrong with promos here it's you

------------ they gave 5 reason why i would have been rejected, and none of them were applicable to what i had done. If i was given a proper explanation, there would be no question.

Unfortunately they never will, as this leads to people finding ways around getting rejected. So they keep pretty quiet on it. But if you previously had a Party Poker account, I am guessing that's got something to do with it. It'd be my guess that whoever verified your account on Party Poker end decided to reject it, based on something to do with existing account..
IMHO - just select another bonus - Players Only is good.

Well at least you got to apply. I guess I should be complaining, being from the US, but it just saves me from the hassle of even trying. Have to do it all on my skill. LOL Guess thats why I am broke. Be thankful you dont live here if you need free bankroll. So you dont have it so bad after all. GL see you at the tables
