I got the email from Pokernow saying that they have merged with party... They then prompted me to either
1) Transfer my bank to an existing party account
2) Create a new party account
3) Just cash out.
I transferred my bank to party. But the email said something about a merging bonus, but I clicked around, logged into party, etc... haven't found anything.

Didn't get the email (unless it went to Bulk), but read on BW. I did the transfer today but if there is a bonus it's not immediate. I plan to check later.

Okay, I emailed pokernow support, asking if they had any links to the conditions/info about the bonus. Apparently, as of right now, they know about as much as we do. I've been waiting for a party bonus though, so I can get to using that sweet new software of theirs.

I got the same email earlier today. I transfered my $0.86 balance over to Party. I looked for 15 minutes for said bonus before giving up. I figured some whore like EasyT or eeeee would be posting the details here as soon as they were out.

Its just random. If you havent gotten it by now youre not going to. Just like parties other random bonus sometimes you get em sometimes you dont but when u do get em they are always instant. I struck out on all mine too. Cause it works for multipoker and intertops too for some people.

I sent them a nicely worded email asking if I overlooked the special offer that my friends got transferring their PokerNow balance and if so if I could still get it, and they offered me a 20% upto $100, 5x raked hands! I had to email them after I deposited, and the bonus was added within 10 minutes.

natdang,
I got the same email you did. And the exact same reply when I asked when the bonus would show up. I figure in 3-4 days I'll get back with them and hound them again.

You know, I heard about this 'close your account' offer, tried it at PNow, Intertops, and MultiP and got no bonuses. And I hadn't heard of ANYONE getting the bonus after the initial news broke, so I didn't share -- seemed like a bust to me. But then I got an email from PNow, but I had already closed my Pnow account. So I emailed Party Support and basically just asked for a bonus, and they told me 'wait and see.' So I am waiting. Dum-de-dum
Anyway, seems like a turkey, plus they are mixing in a couple other account specific bonuses here and there.
In summary, you might as well wait for PNow (Intertops, MultiP) to send you an email. And you might want sign-in and check Party for a pop-up offer.

I got the email but no bonus so I emailed em too...they offered me the same 5x $100 bonus, but it's IGMPAY only. Yes, I've already done the initial IGMPAY bonus. Hey, free money at 5x is great!
Anyway, send em an email-it cant hurt.

Laaaame, apparently the $30 300RHS bonus I got was indeed the "Merge bonus", found this out by emailing support.... this sucks because everyone else got $100... What a rip! Well I tried to get two separate bonuses, the regular party bonus that everyone got and this merge bonus, but apparently I can only get one. Anyway, party support randomly gave me ten bucks for being confused.

I got the bonus for one of my three accounts I closed (PokerNow, Multipoker, Intertops).
I know people that have received all three. I also know others that didn't receive one bonus, so whatever...Free money is free money I guess.

I just finished off a bonus called "APRIL06CASHOUT75" and then got this email from PokerNOW. To me this bonuscode sounds like the merger thing.
Anyway, I replied to say I already moved my money over, but can I get the bonus. They said no, but instead of a bonus, we'll credit your account with $10. No raked hands. It's my like my birthday!
