Pros:
Crappy bonus
Can convert points for cash

Cons:
Bad rakeback
Questionable withdraws
Horrible customer service
Crappy software
Poor game selection (especially if you play full ring)

Ever made an agreement with somebody and then had them decide they wanted to change the terms? So you decide the new terms are not so bad so you continue to hold your end of the bargain then they decide they want new terms less favorable to you, you then decide you will agree. Then after a little longer they decide they still want new terms favoring only them even though you had agreed two times before on the terms and they continue to reneg. That is what doing business with Absolute is like. You never know when they will decide they don't like their own terms both of you have agreed to abide by. They will change terms on you in a second and point to their rogue T&C's that say they can even though you have already started clearing the bonus, agreed to rakeback terms or agreed to an existing affiliate agreement.

Is this somebody you want holding your money?

Pure garbage.

*Horrible software (drawn in MS Paint).
*Terrible cash out process.
*Non-existent support
*6 Players at peak hours.

And the list goes on...

Just look at the problems people have had with UB. Same company, same [censored].

People rip on AP, FTP, Stars, WPEx and every other site out there.
Are there any US-friendly sites that don't suck?

No, but Absolute is by far the worst.

For what it's worth, I've never had any issues cashing out of AP (I used Epassporte).
