100% match to $100...
Code: NOFEES
20 base vpp per $1 to clear.
People here use eChecks much?
|
|
So you click their picture and then you get their money?

I didn't get any email about this, will it still work for me? Also, when I go to deposit there is no place to put a bonus code.

do you have eChecks set up yet?
IT takes 10 days I think, which sucks for the fish.

According to this, it takes 10 days to verify your deposit... which means you can't cashout money until it's all verified... unless you have enough to cover it in your PS account. In terms of getting the bonus it seems like it's instantaneous... no waiting or anything.
Holy fuck.. this is the nuts... and w00t.. free $100... i feel like it's the good ol' days.

I used it for the reload bonus. I takes 10 days to clear, but it added the money to my account immediatley (if it's in good standing, whatever that means).
I requested the withdrawal yesterday, I'll update when I get it.
I just tried to add $100 and it worked apparently, but I didn't get an option to add a bonus code

Those that didn't have a place to enter a code, did you use epassporte?
From the subject line of the email I got:
"Exclusive bonus only for previous ePassporte users"

Apparently if you didn't get an email from stars you can't get the bonus. You need to have used epassporte in the past to get the bonus.

I didn't get an email either, and I'm currently clearing that $120 reload. Can you clear more than one bonus at a time? I better send them an email.

Remember when the poker community didnt beg for money?

I guess making that $25 eCheck deposit was very very -EV.

kind of funny they tell you this and me this:
Hello Zach,
Thank you for your email.
I checked further into this situation, and found that this bonus was only
intended for a select amount of players randomly chosen by our marketing
department. Unfortunately at the moment I'm afraid that you cannot take
part in this promotion since an email was not sent to you.
We apologize for the inconvenience that this may cause. We will be
offering other bonuses in the future.
Feel free to contact us at any time should you require further assistance.
Regards,
Emely
