There is a chance, it is handled on a case by case basis and probably not immediatelly at launch...

Well maybe you could get above 27% with very high volume, but I sure didn't. Full Tilt had the poorest rakeback out of all the sites I've ever played in, but it was well compensated with smaller HU rake compared to other sites.

Just showed up in my inbox a minute ago

no you alwys got higher than 27, because you at least had FTPs on top of that, iron man also added considerable value at not much volume

Got that email as well. Don't like the sound of it at all.

They mess up big time, i can't access my money for 1,5 years, they somehow manage to come back into business with the help of stars and the first thing i hear from them is that bull**** about my documents, that i already sent them multiple times.

No explanation, no apology.

What exactly do Stars have to apologise for?

[ungar2000]

Anyone else going to have trouble providing a document from the address on file that is within the last 90 days?

I replied immediately asking for official announcement. I'm not just sending my passport and other details to some random email

edit: I don't even know what address is one file but >50% chance I don't live there any more and I expect many fall in this category

[pokerbot_v7]

Nothing. I love Stars for buying FTP and giving me back my money.

But it is Full Tilt that sent that email and although the people that messed up don't work there any more the company itself caused alot of problems for so many people that i would expect another email than asking for my documents without even mentioning their wrongdoing.

Pokerfuse reporting the emails are legit:

Jeff Ifrah on Historic DOJ/Poker Stars/Full Tilt Deal

In this video, Jeff Ifrah, founding partner of Ifrah Law and co-counsel to Full Tilt Poker, explains how the historic deal that was struck by Full Tilt Poker, Poker Stars and the United States Department of Justice (DOJ) is good, not only for the gaming industry, but also for the nation's businesses and economy.

i can see how people would like to get an appologie, but seriously this would only make every last fish aware of what happened (and believe it or not, that is NOT already the case) and certainly would lead to some of them not coming back to our tables...

that said, could Shyam please confirm if everyone is supposed to reconfirm identity? My account certainly was verified and i did not receive the above mentionen email, but another poster above mentioned his account was verified and he still got the email. A clarification would be much appreciated.
