[888poker] (ROW) Official Players' Thread

edit2: promo is on the main page, so it definitely didnt stop running. So hopefully its some random delay (written that prizes will be granted within 72 hours in t&c), and a new-year-deposit is a not a condition. if yes, hope noone has grinded a lot in the first week.

ye, I got it every week in December

I got it also in every week in december.
At november im pretty sure that i didn't get rakeback in one week but 888support said that i have always been paid.

Hello community.
Anyone who has the opportunity to write to support in live chat, please clarify two questions:
1) Is the promotion valid:Up to 50% extra RAKEBACK
2) Why haven’t players received rakeback this week yet?

PLEASEEEEEE

888Poker recently deleted SNGs from their offering due to 'business reasons.' For the last 12 months or so, according to Poker Scout, both 888Poker and Party Poker pulled in similar playing figures. Sometimes 888Poker was ahead of Party by a few hundred more players, and other times Party would be slightly leading.

Party Poker still offers SNGs and the question now begs. Was the business decision by 888Poker the correct one despite protests from players at the time? The answer is a resounding no. Traffic has increased substantially by another 500 players on Party (1500 playing today), while 888's traffic is down by 500 players (550 players today. It seems players at 888Poker have voted with their feet and migrated over to Party.

Maybe the change is seasonal and 888 will recover. But I think the ship is about to sink.

Please read the terms of this promotion,

https://www.888poker.com/terms/rakeback-...

Thanks for answer..

I have recived email before and have recived rakebaks before.

Last week I have recived rakeback as usual. I havent got any new emails about promotion.

So I have a question, have you made and changes to promotion? Are there any new restrictions?

So has the rules changed? I started bankrollchallenge from 0$ in last may. Now i have ~14k in my account. I havent deposit at this time (why should i if i have enough money to play?)
And last week i raked ~2k so i wont get 50% from last week?
If that is the case i will play only sunday mtts in further on 888.

888Rep?

Hi 888Rep, I also didn't receive any extra rakeback for last week. I received a promotional email 2-3 times over the past year, but have received rakeback every week since June. I also made a deposit this year and from the moment of deposit I made over $500 in rake until the end of the first week. In live chat they write only standard answers “wait for email”.
I would like to know from you whether the rakeback payment for the promotion is delayed or canceled for some accounts, as I see this problem is not only mine.
My account is land_seal, if you can tell me specifically about my account, is the extra rakeback promo still available to me?

There are 2 different promotions:

- 50% Rakeback for cash players
- 50% for tournament players who register on time (early bird)

These are the T&C's of the promotion for cash players. Number 1.1 Point ii) clearly states that you must have made deposit within or prior to the period of the promotion. So there is no need to deposit every weak or so.

Hey Rep, I see a message when closing 888 client saying something about services not being offered to players in my location but when I scroll down to read the whole thing the client closes. Note this happens AFTER closing the client, I can still operate on the program, play, etc, this is just when I close the client.

I'm located in Thailand and afaik playing from here is allowed so I'm wondering what is this about, maybe something about casino games?

Can you please confirm to me if I'm allowed to play from here or something changed recently? (I verified once again my identity + location a couple months ago so if something changed it was very recently)

Thanks in advance

Got last weeks rakeback!

Theres a big issue here in regards to 888 stopping services on a couple of countries, Thailand, Norway, Perú just to name a few.

Personally people here in my country had restricted access up to a couple of days ago that we were able to log in and play again out of nowhere, with no info about it from support and while affiliates were sent information by official 888 channels that they were indeed stopping operations on January 5th.

As today i am able to open tables but the restricted message is still happening.

You people in 888 are acting on such a chaotic way that i dont even know what to believe anymore. So far ive stopped playing and i wont come back until its solved.

Ok here's the information,

fyi,
Hi,

Due to a company decision, we are going to close Thailand in February.

Right now we are blocking new players and in February we will be closing it for everyone.

Regards

Does that decision includes other countries? Peru? Norway?

Is it possible to have a list of countries where you can no longer play at 888?
no thailand no more?

I have no list but mail [email]support@888poker.com[/email] and they will advise you.

Regards

So I can still play normally until feb 1st?

Software laggy today?
