Dude i just used this deposit bonus an hour ago and it didnt go through, so i emailed party asking why. They gave me the bonus (425 raked hands) even though it expired last night. Sweet.

that's bullocks, i didn't get the bonus so I emailed vip@partypoker, no dice.
Going to try again at bonus@party and see how it goes. I want my $75 bucks dammit.

Good lord! I just emailed bonus@party and they credited me the bonus in record time. 5X and 30 days to do it, no hassles whatsoever.

bonus@party is the key. Thank you to the OP and the advice on this thread. happy happy joy joy. [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

Hi,

I just deposited using the bonus code "75MORE," after I saw it advertised on
the www.partypoker.com website, but the bonus did not appear in my account.
Could you fix this? I already knew about the Tell-A-Friend and IGM-Pay
bonuses, and an affiliate bonus would not have been advertised on your
website. I paid a hefty deposit fee to be able to deposit for this bonus.

Thanks!

Dear Jay,

Thank you for contacting us.

We regret to inform you that '75MORE' is an affiliate bonus promotion hence the bonus was not issued in your bonus account. The bonus promotion was offered in error by one of our affiliates hence it has been deactivated.

We do value your association on our site hence we would like to offer you a 20% Deposit Bonus up to a maximum of $100 on your first deposit through the iGM-Pay Deposit option.

This is a release-restricted bonus. You will be required to play 5 times the bonus amount in raked hands within 30 days of your deposit (using your checking account).

Please quote the bonus code "IGMPAY" when making your deposit and we will do the rest.

A raked hand is any hand in which a rake (service fee) is taken out of the pot. A player is considered to have played a raked hand when cards have been dealt and the hand has generated at least $0.01 in rake for that player.

To accumulate raked hands, just participate in hands (any live game, any limit) where a rake is taken. The 'buy-in' of a tournament, does not contribute to your accumulated raked hands. Furthermore, as there is no rake taken in tournament hands, you cannot obtain raked hands through tournaments. The amount of rake collected appears as a small chip stack next to the dealer tray.

For more information about our rake structure please visit:

Thank you for choosing us as your online gaming site!

Dear Jay,

Thank you for contacting us.

The bonus code "75MORE" is a bonus code promoted by one of our affiliate and this has been deactivated. We would not be able to issue this bonus as the bonus code is not a valid bonus code. We regret for the inconvenience caused.

However, as a special consideration, we have issued you another bonus for the same amount.

A bonus of $75 has been added to your bonus account. You are required to play 375 raked hands by 04-MAR-2006 21:27, as per the release restriction. The amount will then be credited to your real money account.

You can always check the status of your bonus and how many raked hands you have played by clicking on the 'Cashier' option on our Lobby, and then on 'Bonus Account'.

I just started playing on Party this month and tried depositing with the 75MORE Bonus code, using the $400 that I had available at the moment, and did not get it. However, I fired off an email and within 5 minutes of checking back, I found my account with an $80 pending bonus (COMPBOUNS) with 5x play requirement.

Thanks to everyone for the information within the thread!
