Dumb question for all?

If I have an account of FT, but never deposisted a single dime am I able to get RB?

unfortunately in order to sign up through a RB account you have to do so upon account creation. however, if you e-mail full tilt support and tell them this, there's a pretty decent chance they'll hook you up with their rakeback provider (i think it's rakebackpros or something). a lot of people with already made accounts have gotten rakeback by just e-mailing FTP and asking

rakeback is just where you get a certain % (usually somewhere around 30) of the rake you pay to the site put back into your account each week. some of the rakeback sites have other perks like monthly freerolls if you earn enough points

I made the mistake of asking for it, when I already had a second account with rakeback :).

Never deposited on either one so they were both empty, mailed them and asked to close the old one 'as I had just discovered I had it'.

No go they closed the rakeback one :).

also, tell them you're holding jennifer harman hostage with a knife to her throat, and you'll kill her if they don't give you rakeback (could even try for red pro status if you're feeling lucky)

Or tell them you're in Dwans entourage -.-

Weird thing was after my other account got closed, they send me a mail telling me how awesome I was for letting them know of a multi-accounter. They never send a mail telling me they were closing the account. I guess they didn't know it was me ? :confused:

Neteller should get off their ass and make me an extended member already. Jezus how long does it take to properly look at my documents to see that my father's surname is the same as mine..

It will basically come down to how you signed up originally. If you're linked to an affiliate there is very little hope that you'll ever be offered RB. If you're unaffiliated, you'll likely be given RB from rakebackpros. gl

Yea - they denied me because they said I signed up with an affiliate - but they wouldn't tell me who it was. I knew who it had to be - Pokerlistings, same as Pokerstars, no other possibilities. Then when I tried to play in the Pokerlisting freeroll that FT sent me an invitation to join - it wouldn't let me in. FT said I didn't sign up through them. It took me weeks of arguing to get them to agree I could play in them. But when I earned enough points last week and tried to play Saturday it wouldn't let me in.

Ft really sucks. :(

Not necessarily. Any site that you may have clicked a link to download the software through, is an affiliate. Affiliates can be RB sites, but a lot of them are just paid a single fee for getting you to sign up (not a percentage of your rake). So if FT already paid someone to get you as a customer they don't like to give you anything back. If you went directly to their site and downloaded and didn't use any other sites promo codes, you'll be fine.

im almost positive that i went directly to the site (cuz i downloaded the play money one first by accident)

how does their rakeback work?

do they like deposit the amount into your account after a month or something like that?

I think most RB sites pay by the week now and it's directly deposited into your FT account. Do you currently use PT3 or HEM? If so check your MGR at FT and multiple that number by .27, the result would be the amount of RB you would have earned.

The rakeback site I use lets you cash out whenever as long as you cash out over $25 (and has to be dollar increments). I usually get it within 24 hours in my FTP account. No rake races, but if I (or if I form a team and our combined team) rake in 2k/5k/10k/20k in rake in any given month I get an extra 0.5/1/1.5/2% extra rakeback for that month.

No I had never heard of her until the videos, but honestly doesn't make that much difference. She definitely knows poker, that's for sure :).
