I cleared a bonus on friday, and by sat. it still wasn't credited to my account. So I msg them about it, they apologise, and manualy credit my account. No big deal.
This morning, I log on, and my deposit bonus went thru again. It's only 17.50, so should I...

For 17 bucks I wouldn't say anything, They probably won't even catch it.
I wouldn't report it b/c the'll probably screw up again but if you feel dishonest about it feel free to report it.
You are doing them a favor by staying with the site and letting them rake your ass so have a ball with their 17 bucks.

I say email them again and let them know about the error. I did this with Pacific...I got the wrong bonus, it was supposed to be 40% and they gave me 20%. When they corrected the error they gave me too much (about $40). I emailed them and told them I appreciated them fixing the 1st error so quickly, but now they had given me too much - and all I wanted was to be fair about it. They sent me back an email the same day and said thank you for being so honest, but we will leave it in your account for the inconvienence.
They may or may not let you keep it, but they responded to your request and fixed the problem, it is only right to let them know they made an error and let them decide how to handle it. I guess I'm just an honest guy outside the context of the game.

Honesty is the best policy.
You don't wanna go to hell do you?

Well, I emailed support, and about 20 min. later, it was taken out of my account . I figured I'd let them know, because even if they didn't catch it, I can't really consider it part of my bankroll, as it could be gone at any time. Oh well...now I'll just have to take it from someone else

That was one cheap son-of-a-bitch poker room for sure.

Oh well, sorry it didn't work out for you....but Triptanes is correct, in this case honest was certainly the best policy.
What poker room was it?

Platinum Poker. Since it was taken out so fast after I emailed them, they might have already been looking into it. Kinda bugs me though that they didn't even respond to my email. Oh well...

Need I remind you that we're all card players, and therefore already consigned to flames of woe?
