sorry what's RAF? i just did bet365 and want to hit more primas before they blacklist me.

RAF stands for Refer-a-friend. FWIW, I've done most of the Primas and haven't been blacklisted.

08-03-2006, 11:29 PM
did you have any trouble with bet365? i've heard of problems sometimes. also, if you cashout right after the bonus will that raise suspicions? should i be "careful?"

wako

I didn't do any cover play and got the cashout.

Huh? were talking poker here right?

Sites make money off your bonuses (maybe not the one OP posted, but most sites do), you dont have to worry about getting "blacklisted".


Ken

PS- I know some networks may make you stop signing up for skins after 7 or 8, but I dont think thats something to worry about.

It's a Prima site so any .25c rake counts non-cotributed.
Traffic is ok but not like Stars or Party
It's easy to do $60 ( with a RAF) for only 100 raked hands

The normal way a "refer a freind" process works is:
1- you pm your friend your name and email addy
2- He fills out a refer a friend form at the Poker site
3- the Poker site emails you with offer and a download
4- You enter your friends alias when you register
5- You play the required amount of hands and both parties get a "Refer a Friend" bonus

I'm from Europe and I'm under 21. I tried changing my birthdate to 2 years older but if they're going to check my passport I can't sign up.
Only other time I've ever had to enter my passport number was when signing up with Neteller.
This sucks.

DJE

Is this contributed or not? The email referral I got said:

To claim your free $30 bonus, all you need to do is:

Click here to download the software
Register for Real Play
Enter your friend's Poker User Name after registration.

Make a Real Money purchase of $30 or more

Play 40 Raked games.

(A Raked Game is a game in which you contributed to the pot, and the Poker Room has collected a rake (fee) from the pot. Games where the small blind is less then 25c does not count towards the raked hand total, whether it is raked or not).

Kind Regards,

Grand Bay Poker Support

This is standard Prima T&amp;C's lots of us have done plenty but it is possible for Grandbay to use this clause, they just haven't yet. I, like others have done a dozen prima signups. gl

BlissY

I have many prima sites and I got the RAF bonus.

You have to enter the referrers nick after you login the first time. When you login you first confirm your prima alias and after you have done that, you can fill in the name of the referrer.

i dont understand b/c the RAF is through Prima, so even with a bombardment of sign ups and the 30$ signup bonus they only give away $30, and at a min of 100 hands at .25 cent rake they get $25 in generated rake for the site so in theory they only lose $5 per person to this bonus - but in reality that is not accounting for the smaller rake taken on pots under $5 at NL tables...makes no sense!

Your math is only good if only one person at the table is getting the $30 RAF bonus. If 8-9 of them are, then they're losing lots of money.

They said they'll only give me one or the other... not both. Plus, they're not giving me the $30 i should get from RAF someone else.

So, i'm getting $30 instead of $90. Of course, this is assuming i even get the damn $30... which i haven't yet.

Yes, i'm quite sure. And it doesn't matter how many hands i've played, because two people have now told me that i cannot get both bonuses regardless of the number of hands.

I referred a few peeps but only 2 showed up on my RAF screen and I got paid for one at this time. I just did 50 raked and emailed them to claim my RAF bonus and also asked them if their sign up bonus was still valid at this time.

Received an email from the Grand Bay cashier...My cash-in, as they call it, should be processed in the next batch...and that they process daily during the week.

So I should hopefully be seeing the money in my Neteller by this evening.

Dear Dirty Whore ,

Thank you for your patronage at the Grand Privé Group of Casinos.


You will find the refer a friend link if you click on the options button and scroll up until you find the link, Please note that this bonus is credited by Prima Poker and not by the casino.

Please send us an email when you wagered your deposit at least one times its face value or you have 100 raked hands and we will credit your account with the showdown bonus.

They told me I was credited with the RAF bonus, and were checking on the signup bonus. I was surprised. I e-mailed before going to sleep at 4 a.m. and when I got up for work at 8, had a response.

I just verified through poker tracker that I did receive the $30 RAF.

I highly recommend this bonus. I cleared it in about 5 hours single tabling $50 NL. I ran $50 up to $165, still waiting for the other $30 bonus.

CS is giving me garbage info. Have terms changed? This is what I was told by two different CS reps. You must wager $30 at the poker tables to get the $30 bonus credited. Then you must wager 30x or $900 to be able to cash out the bonus. I told them both that had to be wrong and sounded more like a casino bonus. They both insisted that was for poker. The t&amp;c states you must bet in 100 raked hands (contributed) or wager $100 in bets. What's the real story? Thanks.

GB apparently never gave me my RAF, and due to winning a bit more than I though, I never noticed. When I asked them about it, this was their response:

"Please note that you will not receive a refer-a-friend bonus if you are referred.

Only the referrer will receive the bonus."

What the hell?

One GB customer suppport rep can give 15 different answers to the same question. Keep on them, and they should come through. Try calling, emailing, live chatting, whatever. I had one referral that didn't get credited, and they finally made it right after about 6-7 emails.

But just to make sure that I haven't been wrong about this all along, you get a bonus for referring as well as one for being referred right? Because I only got the $30 signup and they're telling me that there is no bonus for being referred, which was how I took it all along.

bgoalie35
08-15-2006, 01:26 PM
You are correct, they are wrong. You are SUPPOSED to receive a bonus as the one referring and the one being referred. So, if you just signed up there, you should get $60 between your signup bonus and RAF bonus.

Thank you for your patronage at the Grand Privé Group of Casinos.


As per the previous mail, please note that the referrer will receive this promotion and not the referred.


We have credited players extra in the past for this promotion but have found that players only use this casino for this promotion and therefore the promotional rules have changed.


Should you have any further queries, please feel free to contact the Support Desk, at anytime.

I might be able to complain my way into it since I signed up well before they changed the promo rules, but it's more than likely a dead end.

If they're going to do this, they need to change the refer-a-friend page on their site that still says "$30 for you AND $30 for your friend". If they want to end a promotion, its their right, but they should at least get everything straight on their own site.

I would keep trying, as CS is really bad there (maybe call and try to get a different person this time). Hopefully it will go through eventually. Good luck.

Ok...First of all their promotion says you have to purchase at least 30$ and wager 30$ to get the signup bonus. Its on their website.
I figure that was it. Didnt like the rockgarden type of tables, but finished still.
Now I recieve a message saying "We require you wager your purchase
in full AND have at least 100 raked hands."
So I should wager 100$ AND play 100 contributed raked hands. Cause thats what they are...CONTRIBUTED. I played about 100 hands and they say I only have 18 raked hands. Even their counter that has dealt raked hands says 41.
Phuck that!

jds1201
08-17-2006, 10:20 AM
it's not contributed. i don't know what stakes you're playing, but it's 100 dealt and raked.

At least it was last week.

PeachBunny
08-17-2006, 02:21 PM
If they say I have 18 raked hands toward the bonus and the counter says 41, then the raked hands they are counting are contributed.
