Yep. I deposited $700 tonight to get the full $100 bonus.
Question: Once the money is in my bonus account, can I withdraw the money I deposited right away and still keep the bonus?
Obviously, it's a bit of a loophole, but I've heard that you can. Can someone confirm this?

Xianti, Per our conversation I think you can. Please let us know. If you can take the money right back out then it seems like a no brainer to get the bonus.

I got the email too. I thought you play 5 times the bonus in raked hands. Shouldnt you only need to play 500. All the bonuses I have ever gotten from party are always 5 times.

Yes and no, it seems.
What I had forgotten was that each transaction between IGM-Pay (the electronic system I use; also the fastest), my bank account and PartyPoker takes 3-5 business days to actually process and clear. They'll credit you for any deposits you make to PP instantly, but it takes a few days to truly finish processing with your bank.
After depositing my $700 last night and getting the $100 in my PP bonus account, I tried to cash it out this morning. Well, it turns out that the cash-out cannot be processed until the initial deposit is fully processed with my bank (3-5 business days). Thereafter, it'll be another 3-5 days for the cash-out to show up in my bank account.
So, the entire process will actually take between a week to 10 days.

That's too bad. Holding up $700 for 10 days to make $100 is somewhat inconvenient yet still worth it if you can afford to tie up the cash that long.

I was playing a tourney today at Party Poker and a message came across that you can use the bonus code "WOW15" for a 15% bonus.

What's the expiration on WOW15? Any problem getting the bonus if you don't actually get the message?(I got the RELOAD msg and will get that bouns, I'm sure).
Also, another vote for no problem depositing then withdrawing, other then the aforementioned wait time for it to be redeposited to your checking acct(through IGM).

They didn't give any information on expiration. I was just playing a tourney, and the dealer said use the code WOW15 for a 15% bonus.
