A warning for Nordicbet

[Hume]

Apparently they realized that their big bang bonus was too good and are not honoring it (or giving less than $450) for low stakes players. They're using the same clause about passive play that bet365 (I think) used to deny reload bonuses with, even when the player obviously isn't passive (18% pfr). This information is from a swedish forum and is verified by several posters.

Damn... what douches, can they really do this?

[WhatDoesCallMean]

are they listed on the BW website?

may be worth posting this over there to see if theres anything they can do about it even tho the new guys appear to be fairly incompetent compared to Gonzo, Jek et al /images/graemlins/frown.gif

no harm in mentioning it there tho.

I have claimed bonus yesterday and they replied in 5 min that they are forwarding it to poker department (even though i used poker@... email). Not heard from them in 24h. If they deny me 450$, i'll be pissed. What can i do? Only bad mouth them at forums it seems. Hope it doesnt come to that.

I was kind of afraid of this when I read this post by someone:
"Limit FR .5/1 - 4668 hands (1536 rh) total rake 48.71$"

This means Nordicbet gets under 160 dollars of rake from someone who plays .5/1 full limit game for 5000 raked hands. And have to give out 450 dollars. That is over 280% rakeback. And after you add 30% they give if you go ever 200 dollars of rake/month it is over 310% rakeback.

So I was kind of expecting some kind of limits for it. I just hoped they would be honest enough to say that they messed up and that they would pay any 5000 hands people have started by now but after you finish 5000 hands you are working on now you can't get more with present terms which are obviously way too good for low limit players.

And I was denied.

Just great.

Up yours Nordic Bet.

Hmmm...I got $100/1500 raked sign up in like 5 mins after finishing....after reading this stuff I just withdrew...would suck to whore 5k hands for no reward.

coming close to that 1500 ranked hands mark.
I'm so happy that you got that bonus after hearing about bigbang trouble
