Endless Rakeback saga at FTP...and other sites'.

Even though I have been playing on Full Tilt for over a year, I wasn't getting rake back. I signed up with rakebackpros, applied for rake back and within a few days got a response....I now get 27%. I was amazed on how fast i was approved, however I have yet to see any money so.....to be continued

Don't worry, you'll get what you're owed. The problem may be that, if you've been playing primarily tourneys with overlays, clearing any bonuses outside of Ironman, or cashing in FPPs, you might have a negative balance, and it will take awhile for RB to start paying.

Make sure you have received this message in your email, otherwise the rakeback deal has not been implemented yet:

"Congratulations.
We are delighted to inform you that you are now a RakeBackPros player and you will receive 27% rakeback on all your future play at Full Tilt Poker! We will pay you rakeback directly into your Full Tilt Poker account every Friday. The transfer that you will receive on Fridays will account for the rakeback you have accumulated the previous week, counting from Tuesday through Monday."

That is exactly the message I got from Rakebackpros 17Fabrizio17. As they also said my first payment would be Friday August 6. Can't believe it took me so long to do this. Dmorris, I think I will be in good shape with the rake because I play a lot of Limit AND Pot limit Omaha, which has a high volume of action. Actually been getting crushed this week at that game, when my straight flushed was beat by the Royal I had to give it a couple days off.

Full Tilt must deduct bonuses from rakeback such as their recent "Rush week" promo, because my rakeback last week was far short of what I expected. I assume it was because of the $10 I got from Rush week.

Well I saw this thread last night at 4am contacted rbpros and 11 am had the rakeback..damm all the money wasted 395.00 this year in rake and juice glad I got it now

how often do they update the site I keep checking and it still says I earned 3 dollars on july 27th

NoWuckingFurries · Aug 3, 2010

It would help if you told us WHICH site.

Mr Whatever · Aug 3, 2010

Thanks for the rake posting. I just started playing online again recently.

I always thought I had to setup an account 1st through a rakeback site and that kinda seemed “funny to me” –having an outsider involved in my account. My volume was really low so it really didn’t matter, so I was turned off to the idea.

But now im trying to play at least 1k-2k hands a day on the low levels aiming for 100k in 2 months.

im looking at my pokertracker and that rake indicator is annoying. Its only pocket change now but I can tell that over a long haul its gonna turn into something serious.

Then, I read this posting about RakeBackPros through full tilt and I said “wow I never that”lolololol.

Thanks for the info ppl.

I don't have any update for the rakeback that I earned during the first two days of August on my rakebackpros page.
It is been 3 weeks since I have the rakeback deal on my account and each day they usually add the amount earned for the previous day in "this week's rakeback" section. This time the amount is fixed to the 31st of July balance.
Is this happening to anyone of you too? I sent an email to the affiliate but I have got no response.

NoWuckingFurries · Aug 3, 2010

I found that as soon as I made a deposit at Full Tilt the rakeback payments started. Up until then I had received nothing.

I have never deposited either, just using the money from freerolls, asked Full Tilt for rakeback and they passed my details to rakebackpros. They made me eligible and I started to receive the payments for the rakeback earned each friday as scheduled. It all started 3 weeks ago, then the problem that I mentioned before:

"I don't have any update for the rakeback that I earned during the first two days of August on my rakebackpros page.

The RBP webpage has often not been updated correctly. I know that for much of July, up until several days ago when I last checked, they had a notice saying the amounts shown online were not accurate, but that payments would be correct. I wouldn't worry too much about it at this point.

Also remember all the things that are deducted from your MGR before RB is calculated. It's not at all uncommon to have negative RB depending on the tourneys you play, the FPPs you spend, etc.

decker91 · Aug 3, 2010

sorry I was talking about rakebackpros.com

ryodejaneiro · Aug 4, 2010

Just to add my experience. I first contacted FullTilt several months ago politely asking if I had signed up through an affiliate or not because I was interesting in getting rakeback. They actually didn't answer my question but responded that they sent information to RBP but I got a message from them later on that I could not take me in. I basically gave then, it didn't worry me that much since I wasn't playing much at that point.

I've started back playing more recently and a few days ago, I figured why the hell not and went directly to RBP and registered. This morning I got their standard email saying that I'll be getting rakeback! So it took me several months (granted only 2 tries) but I'll finally (and hopefully) be getting rakeback without any problems.

Poof · Aug 4, 2010

I don't think that the RBP page is accurate, or I could be using it wrong. I just see the amount deposited every friday into my account and stopped trying to track how much it is going to be.

None of the RB sites seem to be accurate, they estimate rake from the info given. They dont know how much rake you will actually get until FT give it to them.

Dont worry

I contacted full tilt support and received this email:

Hello Brandon,

Thanks for contacting Full Tilt Poker Support.

You've asked about the possibility of receiving rakeback but at this time, Full Tilt Poker does not offer rakeback directly to players.

There are a number of affiliate companies which offer rakeback if players sign up to Full Tilt Poker through their website. However, it appears that you were referred to Full Tilt Poker from an affiliate which does not offer rakeback. We are unable to switch your account from this affiliate to another, as our agreement with affiliates prohibits this.

We understand that you are interested in such promotions in the future and if the situation changes, our players will be the first to know and we will contact you when we have more news.

Regards,

Jay
Full Tilt Poker Support

Should I try again or contact rakebackpros myself?

bobsay225 · Aug 6, 2010

well checked ft cashier and I got 1.55 today only had two days rake till last monday so I guess Idont have too much negative rakeback......

17Fabrizio17 · Aug 6, 2010

Freeroll participations should not have a high impact as using points or taking advantage of another promotion. but I always wondered if it is simply taking part in a freeroll that affects the rakeback balance negatively or it is only winning money in a freeroll to weigh negatively.

Logan2 · Aug 6, 2010

I download fulltilt 3 or 4 years back no idea from where, but i am sure that i not deposit for the first months, maybe until 1 year later.

Never have rakeback there (like many not have a clue time back about this) everyone tell me before that probably i can´t have it now because was no way to know where i was linked.

I read this thread yesterday late (today i guess because was 1am) and spend like 30 minutes reading all posts, i think "what the hell i can´t lose nothing", decide to try this rakebackpros before go to bed, just enter, register and they send me the email where i can find the pw, i just log in and then close all and go to bed.

7am check my email by curiosity.

Congratulations.

We are delighted to inform you that you are now a RakeBackPros player
and you will receive 27% rakeback on all your future play at Full Tilt
Poker!

i waist so many time and take me 6 hrs

Thanks for the topic

It's taking part that effects MGR. So if Full Tilt contributes $200 toward the prize pool and 50 people enter everyone would get $4 deducted from their MGR.
