On Jun. 30th, CON is having a "happy day": the entire day. 10% deposit Bonus, up to $200. 10x wagering requirements, unless you use neteller (DON'T USE NETELLER). I recommend using your checking account; it goes in and out pretty easily.

It's risk free money, if you have some money you can afford to not use for two weeks. They always help boost my bankroll. Smile

Enjoy, everyone. I know I'll be there. Razz

Not sure if I undestoond the free part...

Can we deposit the 2K, get the 200 free, withdraw the 2000K (before wager requirements) and wager the 200 hoping not to lose it ?

If not, can we deposit 2.000 to stay at 2.200 and then withdraw all the money if it drops up to 2.000 ?

I'm asking because in Star and Planet we are wagering our own money and Bonus is only release at the end, not being totally free risk. Is Con different ?

Thanks

Yeah; Starluck and PlanetLuck are different.

CON let's you withdraw your deposit regardless of what happened to your Bonus. And any money you do lose comes out of your Bonus before it comes out of your deposit.

I logged into CON to check the status of my withdrawl (made on the 16th-- still in processing) and got a pop-up that they're having one of their 888 days on June 23rd: deposit $888, get 88 comp points and they'll award your account $88 (10x WR).

The thing that bugs me is that this doesn't show up on their playersclub page; I always want to see it in writing on a public page as sometimes I wonder if I imagined the whole pop-up thing or misread the date/time (maybe it was July 23rd-- and I can't go back and check it).

Has anyone else heard something about this?

Also, since they're so bloody slow in processing my withdrawl, if I make a fresh deposit for the 888 day, will they reverse my cash out first (and deny me the Bonus) or will they go ahead and do a withdrawl from my bank account (my usual method to avoid the noxious 50x WR if you use NeTeller).

I'm also a little concerned about killing the goose that lays the golden eggs and getting labelled as a Bonus abuser; I left the money in my CON account after getting the sign-up Bonus for about 4 weeks, got a $30 Bonus for their Simple Winnings promotion (deposit at least $100, earn 30 comp points, get $30), waited a few days then initiated the withdrawl. Prior to my withdrawl, I did play some JoB and BJ even after I got the Bonus money; I probably wagered about $1000 outside of trying to reach WR for the bonuses. I was just wondering if that was enough cover play to keep me from raising any red flags as a Bonus abuser. I read some things from people that cover play is one way to divert suspicion, and the other was to make deposits outside of Bonus promotions (which I have yet to do).

What do you all do for cover play?

888 day was weird this month - some players got emails but most didnt and it didnt have it on their website until like the last minute or something - i was reading about it on bonuswhores.com

happy hours is phat - though i keep using neteller so i have to wager literally probably like 50 gs before i could ever withdraw it - i just keep breakin the Bonus by 50 cashing out - and repeating. This will bring me up to 688 if they dont ban me. guess we will see

I've been stung by a couple small CON bonuses that needed to be played the same day as the promotion, but it wasn't stated in the T&C's. Anyone know if this happy days Bonus has to be played today, the 30th? I'd love to make the deposit and play later in the week.

nope doesnt have to be played today at all - I havent played the same day a single time actually - the Bonus isnt credited instantly - it will be credited within like a day or so - make sure you dont start wagering until the Bonus is actually given cause someone on bonuswhores did the whole requirement before they credited it to him and they made him do the whole thing again to withdraw it
