Is there any way to check your affiliate status? I know I got the first deposit bonus, but I don't remember what promo code I used (if any).

No way to check and FT will not tell you who it is.

Try to remember from which website you used the rakeback. They usually have it public.
In my case, i had no problems yet.

Assuming you're talking about FT, you can just contact them directly. They'll tell you if you qualify, and if so, they'll send you to RBP. Or you can go to RBP directly and they'll go back to FT to see if you're eligible. Just know that if you signed up for FT through an affiliate and deposited within 60 days of the signup, then there is nothing you can do to get RB.

Just send them an email threatening that if they dont let you get rakeback then you are going to move to another site. it worked for me

i signed up with RBP about a month ago after having an ftp account for 3 years. i started receiveing rakeback the next day and have had no issues

LOL. Threats are not only unnecessary, but futile. I don't know your stakes but I'm 99.9% certain that bigger rake generators than you have threatened them and gotten nowhere. They don't really care if you leave over RB. You're just lucky that the CS rep that got your email didn't deny you out of spite (I would).

You'll attract far more flies with honey than vinegar, as they say.

Just nicely request RB and if you qualify for it, then in all likelihood you'll get it. If you don't qualify, like if you're tied to an affiliate, then it doesn't matter what you do -- you will not get RB regardless.

Yeah I just got an email today saying:

"Congratulations!

We are pleased to inform that your Full Tilt Poker account is now set up to receive rakeback from us and you can keep track your rakeback by logging into your rakebackpros account at http://www.rakebackpros.com/"

Of course there was more, but that excerpt serves its purpose. I applied last night so that was a VERY quick response. I haven't played since getting the email so I don't know if there are any kinks yet, but I'm assuming it'll work out fine.

While I totally agree with what you posted, this saying has always fascinated me. And its because, while honey does attract the flies, so does shit....... And it seems to attract the most.

LOL, sorry for the derail, but I couldnt resist.

I have applied through multiple sources for RB at FT, and its a no go. RBP informed me that I am tied to an affiliate. I will keep in touch, since I have no idea who I am affiliated with, and this information is not given out, I can only hope they - my affiliate - one day go out of business and my affiliation ties are broken. AFAIK, this is the ONLY way I will ever get RB from tilt.

On 3/29 I wrote RBP asking them to add Rakeback. Here is there response:

Hello,

Thank you for your interest in RakeBackPros.

We have added your details to our records and will check your rakeback eligibility with Full Tilt Poker.

We will contact you as soon as we have an update of your request.

Please let us know if you have any questions in the meantime.

Regards,

I signed up at FTP a few years ago and have just started playing again. I
don't have any other affiliate attached to my account and was told I should
get in contact with you all in order to get rakeback added to my account.
Please let me know when it is done.

Thanks!

Less than 48 hours to get it added. I hate that some of you guys are having such trouble

signed up at RBP now just waiting ,pretty sure I signed up thru someone but thought I would try anyway . so whoever you signed up thru gets your rake back forever ? seems like they would do a little something for their people.
