Full Tilt Deposit Bonus
 

If one initially deposits money into Full Tilt, let's say $600, and receives the matching bonus, is it possible to withdraw any money before the full $600 bonus has been earned?

Also, (this has probably been covered elsewhere but) I'm wondering what the pros and cons are of using Epassporte for withdrawals from Full Tilt.

Thank you!

I have cleared the bonus twice. Once in my name and then helping a family member clear in their name. I only play medium stakes (i.e. $20/$50 S&G's) and found it pretty easy. However, if you are going to try then proper BR would suggest you need at least $600 to give it a go in the timescale. So not sure why you would want to withdraw it.

Anyway, both questions would be answered by Full Tilt. Have you asked them? They may not be as quick as Stars in responding but they are not bad.

Hey can you post the answer when you find out. I'm currently clearing the bonus at FT and my whole roll is there and I time to time cash out like $100 or so to go out (i know its making building a roll a bit harder). I didn't even think I might not be able to withdraw because of the bonus.

Thanks, Rek. I'll never get that 30 seconds back.

Yes, you can withdraw. You need to play some first, don't know how much, but I withdrew in chunks about a month after I started without any problems.

Epass works fine, You will take a bit of a hit on your MGR if you have rakeback but, other than that, it works pretty well.

With ePass uou take a 6% hit on deposits (against your MGR) but zero on withdrawals so keep a good bankroll and just win baby [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]

Wow, some people! Still if it took you 30 seconds to read that and then felt the need to respond like you did say no more.

I just don't understand why there are so many posts asking will "such and such do this or that" without first asking the site and knowing it from the horses mouth. You end up with answers like yours "you need to play some first, don't know how much" and "a bit of a hit on your MGR".

Clear as mud now.

Re: Full Tilt Deposit Bonus
 

Thank you all.

More responses would be appreciated.

Re: Full Tilt Deposit Bonus
 

Rek is right even though his first response was awful. It's pretty stupid how often people ask questions on here where people can often be wrong or just don't know, instead of just E-MAILING SUPPORT. It's not that hard.

As for the question, yes you can withdraw some of it while the bonus is still being earned, but I would play a decent amount with it before you cash any out.

Well in the original posters defence a question like this seems to yell out Hi I want to abuse your bonus program. I can see why he'd prefer not to announce that to the site's support staff.

It is not abusing their bonus program. They have their rules and will clearly tell you what they are. If you are allowed to withdraw that will be it. It will not be a secret.

You will be doing nothing underhand if it is permitted. All Full Tilt want is you to play their site. If you are good enough you will clear their bonus. They NEVER lose out they just make a little less during the bonus period - the more you play the more they make.

Sorry about my 1st post if it came across bad but you would have had a definitive answer by now had you emailed Full Tilt at the start. And if this thread carries on for another few days all you will have is some more heresay and no real proof

Re: Full Tilt Deposit Bonus
 

Well no. If they wanted to give you $600 for a $100 deposit they would offer a 600% deposit Max $600 not a 100% max $600.

Hello again Henry17 - you do like to be pedantic don't you. The point is (and I know you don't like to be wrong so no doubt another message will folllow) Full Tilt will have their rules that will either allow it or not. They WILL tell you what they are - THEY ARE NOT secret.

I don't know the honest answer and nobody else seems to know for certain either. But believe me or not, Full Tilt WILL know and WILL tell you.

Peace be with you.

I'm pretty sure you can cash out. It is a long bonus so they will allow it but I do believe that there is a difference between cashing out profits and cashing out your initial buy in. Buying in for $600 and then cashing out most of it would violate the spirit of the promotion. While the software might or might not be coded to detect this e-mailing them would certainly increase the odds of being detected.

Do you think they will call the internet police or something? You will be playing their site and they will be happy. But if you are so worried about the email police tracking it down I have a really good, never before thought of, idea - use a different email address. A Eureka moment

Re: Full Tilt Deposit Bonus
 

Oh FFS, you two...wasn't one thread of quibbling over semantics and other minutiae enough for you? I don't know why either of you posted here, since neither of you know the answers to the OP's questions anyway, and now you're just turning this thread into a ridiculous argument.

OP, I'm fairly certain cashing out won't be a problem...hopefully someone who plays there more than I can weigh in for certain. As to ePassporte, you really should just go through this forum. There are plenty of threads on the topic already.

No but they can take away the bonus. I don't care about bonuses so this isn't really an issue for me. I was just trying to explain why someone would ask here rather then from the site's support.

haha - you are right and thank you for backing my original point albeit inadvertantly. "I'm fairly certain" are the exact responses I'm talking about.
