I just went through the process of giving a website my personal information, verifying my phone number, and even uploading my drivers license and I can't even redeem the bankrolls for ultimatebet or absolute poker because there is a limited number of bankrolls allowed. This was a huge waste of time and I wouldn't have even bothered if bankrollmob just let the user know BEFORE entering all their information that bankrolls aren't available for USA players at the moment.

If it was such a hassle signing up, why didn't you just ask us what you could get, before signing up?
Also, it's written like 3 times in the signup procedure that the bonuses depends on country. Also on the frontpage there are X's on bonuses that doesn't allow US players.
Finally, being a pokerplayer from US, everybody should know by now that the US have laws preventing ALOT of pokersites from dealing with US players. We can't really do anything about that...
But why don't you get even MORE and use the deposit bonuses instead of the no deposit bonuses which are usually quite low value compared to the deposit bonuses?

I read the terms of service. However, you shouldn't be advertising free bankrolls if the amount allowed already expired. Instead of telling me they expired, the site says "you need id verification".
My problem is with the false promises not the USA conditions. Clearly it says on the ultimatebet banner that its USA ok!

You're right about that, I'll see if we can change it so users without ID verification can still see whether or not there are available bonuses at this time.

If we *could* get anything more special than what we already have, we would offer it to ALL our members
So for being a US citizen, I'm afraid all you can do is remain subscribed to our mailinglist and wait for us to email you when we have something new to offer. But as you might know, there's not a whole lot of options available for US players anymore, specially not in poker. Casino we can still find some offers once in a while though.

So as of right now I am a phone identified, but not yet I.D. verified member, and the U.S. approved free bankroll absolute poker is still being advertised. I'm not saying that it would be a 'waste of time' to continue with the verification process, but I am asking if it will not make me eligible for the advertised promotion even if I do I.D. verify?

ANY idea when the PKR offer will be back ??? I really want to start playing there some time
PKR would be nice. While I don't consider PKR a great room to multitable and the action is excruciating slow, I love that site, awesome idea, and It's probably the only poker room I really have fun and enjoy playing. I mean, feels more like a home game to me. Not for serious poker players trying to build a big bankroll, but more a pastime.

Get over it. I live in the u.s. The same thing happened to me. This site is more than just freebankrolls. It has alot of helpful advice on playing poker. Everyone is always looking for a handout. I dont post much but just had to get that off my chest.
