I checked their site and then my email and found out that they have JOINED FORCES with 7.70 Poker and they will be back online tomorrow.
Two things that need your attention here :
1) According to their site : Your Nickname will become your Username and your new password was randomly generated by an automated system and has been sent to you via email. I got the email and now my Nickname is my old Username (the one entered in BRM form).
So that may complicate things with the gift claiming since we have provided BRM with the username in order to claim it later on.
2) We will all be transfered to the 7.70 software once and for all tomorrow Poker 7.70 has different points system.
We will still need the same amount of points (400) in order to claim it?

Thanks for the heads up Mober, i actually cashout all my bankroll from there(chilipoker) two weeks or so ago due to lack of traffic to the games and limits that i play.
Still, it's a good thing that these two platforms join forces, the only bad thing is for those that had an active bonus there.

Hmmm... tried to login and got an " incorrect nickname or password" message and by their mail it should be available by now. Also wonder what will happen with my gift offer since i was half way trough ( 257 points) and that was the only reason why i installed chilli poker and deposited there in the first place.
I'm usually not a pessimist but this has a " u got screwed" written all over it....

At least they are telling you something i can't get a single reply from anyone ( maybe i just didn't deposit enough). Hate being put in the dark like so, and im only asking for them to tell me to wait a bit more or whatever, not expecting any miracles.
OMG a miracle!
2 minutes after writting this got an email from chili coz as it seems they screwed up my nickname for 770. went to check and everything seems fine... just not sure what will happen with the gift thou.. Crossing fingers on that one too.... hmmm.... another miracle?!?

I still haven’t received any email from them about this. I even checked my spam mail to see if it had gone to there, but nope. Maybe they just advise the recent users, or will they send an email to everyone? They should, I don’t go there for a while but one never knows when it comes that desire of playing in a different room for a change. Think I will try to enter my 770 account to see what happens.
