Sign up bonus

[Penfold]

is this all a big con to get people to join? I have recently joined poker.co.uk and when I first deposited my bonus (pending) was over $80 now after playing for a few weeks my bonus has been reduced to under $50 (pending) are these sites taking us all for a ride or what? I would be interested in a reply from other players who have been conned in such a way or even a reply from Poker.co.uk. as you can never get hold of their "live help".

Is it possible that when your pending bonus went down by $30 that your overall account balence went up by $30?

You will probably find that you have been credited the money mate. I was expecting to have to wait an eternity to get my $500 rake back, but my account has been credited in small amounts at a time (maybe after 200 raked hands or so). I prefer it this way.

I have contacted live support a few times and although you may have 2 wait 5 mins or so to get an operator they are normally pretty good.

The bonus gets credited to your account in $10 increments for every $50 you rake.

I beg to differ.

No, its just not many people read the small print!

Very true Danny, unfortunately very true.

The bonus does go in slowly, play the $5/10 games you will find you get your bonus quicker

Its all about personal preferance glenny, I prefer the smaller blinds, (more time) and the STTs.
