What now? I signed up about a month ago, deposited "any amount" and "played in real money games" but now the reqs. are changed (min. deposit 60$, collect 150 points) and just now I was checking the bonus page and my account to see what's going on since I didn't get the "choose your books" - e-mail for a month only to find out that requirements have changed! Do I still get to choose the books or...? Thanks

Oh, this ain`t good

I even have made a deposit ... 3 weeks ago ... played a few tournaments and some raked hands and hoped that the requirements are as posted

So what now?!

Betfair is not really the Casino i want to play in. I`ve recognized it only after playing some hours there. Do i have to register at another Casino for the books then?! .... well, i guess it is better to buy the books

Kierra - help !

The betfair requirements were changed on January 8th. If you signed up before that, the old requirements still apply to you. If you think you have qualifed and at least 15 days have passed, please e-mail me (again if necessary ... sorry) at bonus_support@twoplustwo.com.

I signed up to Betfair at the weekend to avail of the free books bonus. I deposited and played a few cash games and tournaments. Before logging out I checked my points and saw that I had accumulated 33 points. The next day when I checked my points they had shrunk to 28! This is due to something that Betfair call 'weekly decay'

From the Help at Betfair...

Weekly decay rate

At end of each week, your Betfair Points balance is reduced by 15%. This is known as the Weekly Decay. If you intend to be away for a week or
more, you can take a Betfair Holiday - a week without losing (or gaining) any Betfair Points. Find out more about our Commission scheme here.


So, it looks like my points total will continue to dwindle each week! I just want to clear the bonus and get out of there, as its not a great poker site.

Has anyone who has already cleared/in the process of clearing the requirements noticed the same thing? And what, if anything can be done about it? It seems like bare-faced robbery to me!

it says right now 150 Betfair points, which means 15$ rake, right?

So i play 20 10+1$ SnGs (or whatever they have with 1$ rake) and i am on the safe side and am eligible for the free books, right?

Yes, lost three points the other day. Anyone know if we need to accumulate 150 points after the point deductions, or if we get up to, say, 140 after having lost 10, that's good instead?

Echo your comments on that it's a crap site, software is awful, and I'm having to clear it on donkaments as the rake calculations are contributed, not dealt

Hi,

Can someone from 2+2 tell me when Betfair send through the list of players who have completed the requirements?

I'm asking this because last night I finally completed the 150points requirement, however, on Sunday night/Monday morning my points balance will be reduced due to their policy of 'weekly decay'.

If Betfair are due to send the players list before Sunday night, my name should be included on it. If they aren't due to send it until next week (or later), I'll need to play some more in order to bump up my points balance.

Cheers,
Garr

Player validations for the Betfair bonus are now on the expected "approximately twice a month " schedule per the Terms and conditions for the offer.

I apologize to all you who experienced a lag in verification while we were initially getting this offer rolling.

So I guess I'd better play a little bit more to make sure I'm not affected by 'weekly decay'. Oh well...

Weekly decay does not affect promotions that are based on earned BP, such as this one.
