I was playing a rebuy tourney last week and for some reason it wouldn't let me add-on during the first break. The following conversation with suport took around 35 minutes. You would think their support would understand how a rebuy works

Quote:
Welcome to Hollywood Poker's Customer Service. Please wait while we find an agent to assist you...
You have been connected to Tyler.
Tyler: Hi HERO! How may I help you?
HERO: Hi, I'm playong in the $2+0.25 Frenzt rebuy and the add-on function did not work
Tyler: the add on can ony be done during break sir
Tyler: were you trying to do so during the break?
HERO: yes
HERO: I clicked add on but it didnt work
Currently experiencing network delays, one moment please....
Network connection re-established.
Tyler: rebuys for tournaments can only be done during a set of periods. It cant be done all the time. One moment sir while i check it through
Tyler: you may want to take a look at this link though:
Tyler: http://www.hollywoodpoker.com/help/p...ent-rebuy.html
Tyler: please log out of your account from the website to view the notes
Tyler: ..and please ensure that you have followed those rules on rebuy.
HERO: hmm... I checked that link but nothing there really helps in my situation
Tyler: ok, then may i have the table detail so i can check it through?
HERO: table: Taunggyi
HERO: ID=49608927
Tyler: may i have the hand number on the time when you were unable to rebuy?
HERO: It was the add on during the break
HERO: not a rebuy
Tyler: so youre referring to rebuy actually?
Tyler: i mean, add on?
HERO: yes
HERO: the add on
Tyler: and when did you perform the add on request?
HERO: 2 minutes into the break
Tyler: 2 minutes before the break starts?
HERO: no, during the break
HERO: about half way into the break
Tyler: which break was that on? ex, first, second break, etc?
HERO: the first break
Tyler: and was it your first add on request or second?
HERO: first
HERO: it didnt give me a chance to try again
Tyler: if you were performing an add on, it can only be done during play, and not during break. Only rebuys can be done during break. After the break, it can not be done again
HERO: that is incorrect
Tyler: however, if you have the hand #, i can look up for the hand
HERO: the above is incorrect
Tyler: add on is an addition to rebuys
HERO: yes I know
HERO: I fully understand how a rebuy tournament works
HERO: but the add on did not work
Tyler: ok, do you have the hand number?
HERO: during the first break, I clicked the "add on" button and it didnt work
HERO: there is no hand numer
Tyler: no wait a minute. sorry sir i forgot to ask....
Tyler: is this Frenzy Freezout youre referring to?
HERO: no
HERO: the rebuy
Tyler: the tournament type, was it Frenzy Freeze Out tournament?
HERO: ID=49608927
HERO: rebuy
Tyler: ok
Tyler: one moment please while i take a look
Tyler: did you perform the add on after or before the rebuy period ends? Meaning, after 1 hour?
HERO: during the break after the rebuy period
HERO: after 1 hou
HERO: *hour
Tyler: youre still currently playing the $5000 Frenzy right?
HERO: yes
Tyler: then i will have to ask you to send over to us the wpc.log of your file for us to go through.
Tyler: i am unable to locate it manually from my end so i need your help in order for us to help you in solving this matter
HERO: when the game finishes?
Tyler: yes sir
Tyler: after the game finishes
HERO: ok
HERO: thanks

How did you keep that conversation going? I would have given up and tried to get someone else later, the guy is obviously clueless.

I was seriously finding it difficult not to get abusive but had to keep my cool because I was deep in an MTT at the time
