Ladbrokes transferred over all players to ipoker based on their best loyalty status over the whole previous year. Furthermore, some players with certain affiliates, who had raked heavily in the past, were automatically given top level VIP status for a year regardless of whether they had played there in the previous year. Therefore, there will have been many players transferred over, with a high VIP status, who had no loyalty points in their account. The only way they can get points to rebuy in the loyalty freerolls is by playing, as no cash rebuys are allowed. Like I said earlier, for those that really don't like the software it might well not be an option they take.
