HiLo
Tower Gaming are seemingly revamping their bonus system atm.

You used to be able to buy 7xPP bonuses but now their standard is 10x in the points store. Apparently better bonuses will be available as you move up their VIP system but it looks like you have to start at the bottom of the ladder.

I am also hearing rumours that Ongame have instructed all their sites that bonuses must not be available that clear at better than 8x and at the same time I am hearing that they putting measures in place to stop affiliates offering rakeback.

Can anyone confirm any of this?
If it is true I think they are heading for a huge loss in traffic over the coming weeks.

Edit - just found this on 2p2:

"Forum Members/Tower Gaming Players,

Ongame has indeed cracked down on their Anti-Rakeback policy, which includes eliminating any bonuses under 8x. When this new policy was enforced, Tower Gaming had to temporarily postpone implementing our new site, to restructure our bonuses. We have completed these changes and our new site changes will go live today, February 8th. We are very excited to see the response and comments from our players, so a Player Survey will be sent out within the next few weeks to hear what our Players think about the selection of our new custom bonuses and promotions! Or please feel free to email our team to let us know what you think at support@towergaming.com.

Cheers!

Tower Gaming Management Team"

I'm not very happy about this. The 7x bonuses were the only reason why I lived with Ongame's crappy software.

It sucks, but 8x bonuses aren't horrible. They are worth around 50% rakeback, which is still good. Games are still soft, so that makes for a good combo.

I found an Ongame site that will have 8x reload bonuses every month, so I'll stick with playing on the network.
