 This may have been answered already, (sorry before anyone shoots me down) but for the people who cash in these events, do they get paid in ££s at DTD , or is it done via their DTD account in euros?

Been out all day with the kids and fretting about the HORSE, now regged for that and Day 1b of the main.
Do I get a bonus if I defend the HORSE title? My little girl wants a horse ;-)

Anybody having trouble withdrawing from 888.com. I deposited a sum to fund WCOAP buy ins. Now these are on DtD I have put a request to withdraw it to 888.com. Because my balance includes some uncleared bonus from an earlier deposit in the year they won"t release my funds. Online support were incapable of understanding and beginning to think this is going to get messy.

Simon,

I put this up yesterday. I done a similar thing previously and received an email. When I spoke to them they did allow a withdrawal that meant I left enough to play something like 20x my bonus deposit.

The guys who put money onto 888, if you had used a bonus code at the time you may want to check if you can as yet withdraw. They have a "must play $xxxx amount of value in hands before you can withdraw.

People who previously tried to withdraw after having deposited under a bonus code where only aware on receiving an email a few days after requesting their withdrawal that it would be refused.

Any idea how long it will take to get my money back from 888 that I deposited to pay for WCOAP then get it loaded onto DTD? Will there still be places left in the side events? Would have appreciated more than a day"s notice here when you must have known for considerably longer.


Matt,

We appreciate it may be considered short notice, but there is a lot that gets organised in the background before we are able to make an announcement.  I hope you"ll get your funds in place in time to bag all the seats you are after.



Leigh


This needs to be noted a bit more than may be "considered short notice" and a lot to be organised in the background. This was queried by Daveyface on this thread in June and had it confirmed by Tighty that it would be buy in on 888.

As we can see from Simon and others it obviously has caused problems to some.

I deliberately didnt use a bonus code for my recent deposit. Emailed complaints and said they will get back within 72 hours. I think there might be a resolution that they take the 18$ bonus awarded in the past off my balance. Well I hope they see sense!

Luckily I had a "roll on DTD to buy in, but I can imagine some APAters have been struggling to move money around.


Heard from 888.com releasing my recent deposit so I"m happy. Don"t think I"ll clear the bonus as I need to wager $648 with $40 left in account!

At the time my expectation was that the WCOAP would be handled by 888. However, things change, particularly in the currently very fluid poker world.

It was not possible to give a heads up on the change of WCOAP sponsor beforehand as negotiations were not concluded. Once they were, everything was putting in place (holding tanks, capacities etc) in under 72 hours, time being of the essence as we want the event on sale.

I appreciate it will cause problems, as we can see and was aware it was a likely bi-product of a very complex situation.
