No more UB Cash For Points?
 

dlk9s brought this to light in the recurring bonus thread - it appears that the Points For Cash promo is no longer running at UB. Sigh.

Re: No more UB Cash For Points?
 

looks like they're gone after this week

Re: No more UB Cash For Points?
 

Was it obtainable anymore with their new point system?

Possibly not. I was going to try and find out in the next week or two so I could get my last $1,000 out safely...I've found the change at Absolute wasn't quite as bad as I'd heard (I play SH, that's probably why); I was hoping for similar results at UB. Now with no points for cash, I might just try withdrawing and hope they're satisfied with the play I've given them.

Re: No more UB Cash For Points?
 

If they give you crap about withdrawing without giving them ample action you certainly have a case for being baited and switched if the money has been in there since before the point system changed.

Yeah, I can tell their CS that...HAHAHAHAHAHA...

Seriously though, thanks, I'll keep that in mind. However, I won't hold my breath...I'm fully prepared for the worst case that I may have to give them some play before I get the rest out.

Re: No more UB Cash For Points?
 

i emailed their support asking if it would be safe for me to remove the rest of my funds from their site after they changed their point system and pointed to other changes like the contributed policy, etc...they said it was ok to do and i was unable to clear much of the bonus i had deposited for at that time...i suggest u try the same thing with support...hopefully they get back to u within a month...

Amazingly, I just cashed out $700 with no problems. Need to transfer in my RB, then take out the remaining $350 or so.

Does anyone have a link to back this? I see that they took the cash 2 points off the UB website, but in the UB software it is still there.

Re: No more UB Cash For Points?
 

Time to cash out my last 2k from UB then.

Re: No more UB Cash For Points?
 

try cake poker, bonus not hard to clear.

ub got to lighten up on their bonus clearing requirements to get players back.

they too generous or too difficult, neither which is good for business.

Re: No more UB Cash For Points?
 

also bad for business is not being in the top 50 for bonuses list at bonusprostisutes......lol.

[/ QUOTE ] So I guess it was a bad idea for me to join UB now since everybody is leaving UB. What sites is everybody going to go too or should we just cashout and wait to see what happens with this law?

Well I guess that's all in how you look at it right? If all the whores and 2+2ers leave then who's left? There's a reason that the Crypto's are rock gardens.

Re: No more UB Cash For Points?
 

so will points that were accumulated this past week convert to cash today? Does anyone know?

The page is down, but I think it's 750 points withdrawn to get .03/point. At 1000 points during a given week you'll get .05/point. At 2000 points it maxes out at I think .07/point. The points are withdrawn from your UB points balance and your account is credited with points*multiplier. It is/was actually really good while it lasts/lasted.

Re: No more UB Cash For Points?
 

I see the log (on the cashiers page) is still working for the new week... anyone have confirmation that this is still continuing this week?

Re: No more UB Cash For Points?
 

Just checked out their store: 4,600 points for a T-shirt. I'd be surprised if they still gave the option to get $322 instead...

Re: No more UB Cash For Points?
 

finally what happens with this promo?

is still working ?

I have been away of UB for a while but if the promo still working I am thinking going back to UB

Re: No more UB Cash For Points?
 

I've been able to cash in points the last two weeks.

Re: No more UB Cash For Points?
 

they're just trying to run everyone off

Re: No more UB Cash For Points?
 

Thanks guys !

I will try this week and lets see what happens

great, too bad I would have lost $400 in disconnected hands

Re: No more UB Cash For Points?
 

thats debatable. one place i play cake gets disconnected often. 2 other places i play no disconnection at all.

Re: No more UB Cash For Points?
 

The problem of Cake Poker is that there are not enough tables,

I usually play 9 tables at the same time at UB

Re: No more UB Cash For Points?
 

and they didnt accuse you of being a bot!

cake does have slow periods where multi tabling is not an option.

How would you have gotten 400 in bonuses in a week when they only had 650 in reloads since January (according to Bonuswhores.com)? Also, I have "unmentionable" ahhh... rakeback at both cake and UB...(FYI, you can say rakeback when affiliates are allowed to offer it publicily... I was posting so that people would know that the cash for points was still working, not to get my choice of where I choose to play critized...

anyhow, next time I won't bother posting when I have info about a particular promotion so I won't have to read your spammy responses... I wanted to try out UB again to see how bad or good the bonuses still are, along with the gameplay... I gave them a little play last week and now I have my information...

I also played at cake in the past and the games seemed to be pretty good... I wonder how long this will last when all the idiots on a message board for tight bonus grinding nits (such as yourself) continue to spam away about how good the games and the bonuses are... Oh, BTW, I heard WSEX has a great promotion where you don't pay any rake... Oh wait, LOL, all the nits on twoplustwo spam continuously about how good of deal it is now the whole site is filled with only twoplustwo grinding nits... I wonder how long the "good bonuses" and gamplay will last at cake? (with your assistance on advertising it)

Here is an idea for you... Why don't you try posting relevant information to the discussion? (and, at the very least, factual).. I don't see any mention of cake poker to the heading and the number of bonuses there make what you are describing impossible in the first place...

Re: No more UB Cash For Points?
 

you r a sensitive fellow, i bet you dont take bad beats well...lol.

sign up bonus is 500 at cake and similiar at red star. just multi at lower limits and you would be surprised at the amount one can clear.

cake needs more players , so what if they attract grinders their bonus clearing and rakeback make up for it.

you have to adjust dude go with the flow.

who knows cake may go to weighted contributed method and say it is industry standard...........lol.
