A rakeback question

#1 6th October 2009, 8:09 AM

I have an account on FT but i didn't sign up for any rakeback at the time of registration. Does anyone know a way that i would be able to get one through FT and the account i already use?
Thanks

When did you sign up for it? If you recently signed up just now, you can still get rakeback by contacting full tilt or with a help from rakeback site as long as you didn't sign up through third-party affiliate. If they don't get you rakeback, you would be placed on waiting list to get one.

i dont think FT will allow u to get rakeback if u've already signed up for them. only way to get rakeback is to clear your internet cache, then go to a rakeback site and sign up for rakeback, creating another account basically. though that's cheating but... oh well.

Contacting Full Tilt support regarding this is the better option.

If you create a new account, you are breaking the terms of service and when security finds the account (which they usually do quite quickly) the new account will be closed.

They won't change it for you. I started playing on Full Tilt before rakeback existed. Have paid tons in rake over the years. Told them I'd like to keep my play on their site but that if I could play somewhere else with rakeback it didn't make sense, so would they allow me to get rakeback.

They still said no.

I signed up years ago an tried to get rakeback from rakebackpros and they said no but i'd be put on a list. i sent a few emails to fulltilt,rakebackpros, then fulltilt again a few weeks later they gave it to me.

I was actually thinking about this very same thing.

Ive been reading alot on the web and keep seeing this stuff about rakeback One in particular says if you sign up for their rake back they have some pretty decent sized private freerolls. I think the one on FT is $20k.

It seems that there is some discrepencies to whether or not it can be done after an account has already been created. So in the next few days I will be trying to sign up myself through the site(whose name escapes me right now).

email rakebackpro's support and tell them you would like to recieve rakeback throught them, and sign up at there website...then email ftp and ask them if you can get rakeback, if you don't have an affiliate then they will prolly give it to you.......they did for me, or else I was gonna go elsewhere.....

#9 8th October 2009, 11:31 PM

No point in doing anything unless or until FT says you can have it. The only thing you need to do is email FT and ask them. It is a waste of time to sign up at the above site first.

#10 9th October 2009, 12:22 AM

Yeah FT support is not very helpful they just said they won't help me or anything so i guess my bad for not knowing.

#11 9th October 2009, 12:52 AM

If they said no then there is nothing you can do.

#12 10th October 2009, 12:27 AM

Ah, yeah if they said no, then theres nothing you can do. I think rbpros is there "in house" rb program or something. I was lucky and happened to download Full Tilt directly from , so I was ables to get RB through them...... if you signed up through some other site, or use any affiliates promo codes then I heard there will never be any way to ever get rakeback from ftp, but you could try emailing FTP and asking what affiliate is tied to your account? Maybe you could then e-mail the affiliate and see if they can give u RB? I dunno if that acctually works or not, but I've heard soeone suggest it b4....GL

Yes I emailed ft about this and they told me to contact rbpros.
I contacted them about a month ago and they said they would be back in touch !
Still havnt heard anything??????
How long did you wait to receive a verdict?

cheers

#14 12th October 2009, 5:43 AM

I would like to thank everyone that is messaging me for help and things to try! THANKS EVERYONE!!

took about 2 months i believe. the funny thing was, i had emailed both places, and I couldn't get a response from rbpros, then i signed up at there site ,and the next day I got rakeback....dunno if it was coincedence or not

#16 13th October 2009, 5:37 PM

I got rakeback today after 1 month of waiting. Id' recommend to sign up on rakebackpros.com and if you don't get answer for about a week -> start emailing them every 2-3 days.

It's slow , because this is probably one man show company, but then everything is automated!

If you really want a rakeback account and the poker site said No,here is a solution.I have done this and it will work.Send the poker site an email saying you just are not happy with their site and completely close the poker account completely.Uninstall it from your computer and delete all cookies.Be sure to tell the poker site you want the account closed and you deleted it from your computer.Now,just forget about the poker site for about a year.After a year or so,delete all of your cookies again,and join the poker site again,only through a rakeback site.Be sure to download it thruogh the rakeback site too.Now its a year later,but you will get alot more thru rakeback especially if you play alot.

#18 13th October 2009, 7:57 PM

Thanks everyone! I don't want to close or get a new account so ill just keep begging them to let me get one.

You forgot one part.....after you have had your NEW account a few years (maybe even 5 years later), suddenly you make a fantastic HIT for $50,000 or more. Then you go to withdraw a large portion of it, and Full Tilt starts to look into your account further (yeah, they dont bother until you want to withdraw a large amount). Then you get a notice saying not only are you not getting your withdrawal, but they are seizing the rest of the account for fradulently breaking their TOS by opening a 2nd account to cheat them out of rakeback.

If they said no because you signed up through an affiliate you are wasting your time. I have never heard of a single case where they changed their mind on this.

#22 17th October 2009, 7:02 AM

But I didn't sign up through anyone thats the thing i don't get.

#23 21st October 2009, 4:30 AM

Send an email to them and you get to get on this list that ive been waiting on for 6 months for still... Ridiculous....

Just thought I'd let ya know

#24 21st October 2009, 8:22 PM

yeah i must be on it but they are no help at all really
