Gamebookers and Partybets RAF thread

[lazza_w]

Gamebookers and Partybets (part of the Partygaming group, alongside ITVBets) offer a 'Tell a friend' promotion for new accounts.

You can have an account in GBP or US$. New accounts get a bonus of 100% of the first deposit up to $100 (£67 at their current exchange rate) and the referrer gets 50% of the first deposit up to $100 (£67)

If I refer you I will send you 50% of my bonus

Therefore a deposit of at least £140 will give you £67 from GB/PB plus £32.50 from me giving you a total of £100 (ish) *

The bonus is locked until you compete the WR, which is 12 times your bonus amount at min odds of 2.0, so don't go for high odds hoping to bust out as you'll still need to do more bets. If you go for the max bonus this means a WR of £804*

EDIT - It really is worth depositing £140 or more, not just £67 as the WR is capped at 12x the bonus that you get in your account.
If you deposit £70 your bonus will be £67, the WR £804 and my bonus will be £33.50 giving you a total of £67+(£35/2)=£84.50
If you deposit £140 your bonus will be £67, the WR is still £804 but my bonus is now £67 as well giving you a total of £67+£67/2)=£100.50

Moneybookers is the cheapest way to deposit/withdraw as there are charges for credit/debit card withdrawals (£1.50 or so).

Gamebookers/Partybets/ITVBets do not state that they require photo ID, but may request it of anyone opening an acccount via an RAF. Failure to do so may result in both my and your accounts being locked. I am therefore only offering referral to people willing to provide scans of driving licence/passport if requested.


When you sign up you will get an automated phone verification of your account so make sure that you're next to your phone when you sign up! If you can't verify then your initial deposit may be capped at £50

You can sign up to PartyBets, Gamebookers and ITVBets, but you need to use different email addresses for each site. If you've alredy signed up to Partycasino then you won't qualify for this offer.

To view the terms and conditions, go the the homepage and click on 'Tell a Friend' at the bottom of the page

I can pay you by Moneybookers, Paypal or bank transfer.

If anyone is interested then please send me a private message with your email address and real name.


* depending on the exchange rate at the time that you open your account

Out of interest, my Birth Certificate was accepted as a form of ID at gamebookers. I also missed the phone call, but subsequently contacted them before my first deposit and got a £160 deposit in after sending Birth Certificate

[lazza_w]

They may accept a Birth Certificate as ID, but when they've requested ID relating to referrals in the past it has always been photo ID that they've asked for. That's why I want to make sure that anyone I refer can provide it if requested. Not only might they have their account supended, but mind will probably be suspended at the same time.

Partybets/Gamebookers do lots of offers for existing customers and I don't want to lose out on those because my account is out of action!

If you miss the phone call you can often contact them and verify your account by sending ID, but it's just easier to answer the phone and avoid the problem

So did you get over that period where there was some bother (was it?). Seem to vaguely remember you stopping doing it for a while after having a few dodgy referrals somewhere in the 'pool' as it were? Maybe barking up wrong tree though sorry if that's the case!

I did very nearly PM you in the last few days when I signed up to partybets but ended up going with TGT, hopefully Andy'll get some affiliate earnings from it.

UPDATE: 18/09/10
Ok I've been offering Partybets referral for some time now and have had perhaps 1-2 dozen or so happy referrals. I offer 50% of the referral bonus which at the time of writing is around $50 (£30-35), so as per the title of the thread that's roughly £90 including your SUB bonus.

Gamebookers is not quite so lucrative now, their TAFBOOKERS referral offer is 50% to $25 (with the TAFBOOKERS referral SUB being 100% to $50, 6x(d+b)=$600 WR for the referred person).

I can provide you with full detailed instructions on how to complete the wagering smoothly if you contact me via PM. The process has been tweaked over time to make it as easy as possible to get referred by me, sign up and receive the TAFBETS/TAFBOOKERS bonuses.

If you're interested, please PM me for the instructions.

Cheers.

Munk, yes I did stop for a while at the end of last year. I referred someone (Smellybum on MSE) to ITVBets who then sent referrals to bogus people to open multiple accounts (oddly enough I posted about that on here yesterday). I can only assume that they were found out, presumably when ITVBets asked for ID for the accounts.

As a result their accounts were shut down as was mine. My Gamebookers and Partybets accounts were fine, but I stopped referrals for a few months just in case (I hadn't referred Smellybum to either of these but I thought it wasn't worth the risk). Over the last 6mths I've referred a few people without any problems and all seems well.

However that's why, although PB and GB don't state they want it, I'd only refer someone if they were willing to send in photo ID if it is requested. I'd also strongly warn against doing what Smellybum did as it will only lead to disaster in the long run. PB and GB are great accounts to have anyway, as they regularly do offers for existing customers. Their customer services, however, are shockingly bad.

Yes, stories like that one which I think I read originally on the referrals board (at mse) really put me off RAF! Well good to hear you're doing it again anyway and faith in humanity has been restored(!)

[kristie88]

Can someone just confirm these terms and conditions for me please. Many thanks.

100% up to 100 USD*
Referral Fee: 50% of friend's first deposit into their Account up to a maximum Sign-Up Bonus of $100 USD*
Minimum First Deposit: $50 USD*
Release Restrictions: Friend must wager 6 times the amount of the sign-up bonus and deposit. The deposit amount (up to maximum bonus amount) + the bonus amount must be turned over 6 times in our sports-book on odds of 2.0 or above before a withdrawal can be paid out.
To be eligible for the "TAFBETS" bonus, your Friend must: (i) open a real money Account with the Minimum Deposit; and (ii meet the Release Restrictions within thirty (30) days of making their Minimum First Deposit.

Not sure if i should sign up with the refer a friend option or just do the Norwich promotion

Yes, they look fine. You can have an account in £, so at present exchange rate $100 is just below £60.

Therefore if you deposit £120 you will have a WR of £720 and get £60 bonus and your referrer will get the same. Assuming they split this 50:50 with you you will end up with a total of £90.

If you deposit less (eg £60) they you'll still get £60 in your account but your referrer will only get £30 (50% of £60), although you will still have the same WR.

Just bear in mind that with the RAF route neither you or your referrer get the bonus untill you've completed the WR, so 'busting out' isn't an option - you'll have to redeposit to complete the WR

I went through the same dilemma as you trying to decide which to go for, TAF route or TGT referral route... in the end I went with TGT mainly because I wanted to try and 'pay back' Andy for all the free bets he's given out!!! (As it turns out I've had a bit of a winning streak so he might not get paid from partybets until I start losing a bit more!!!)

All I can tell you is what I experienced from going the TGT route over on t'other thread you originally posted on:

http://thegamblersunderground.com/al...html#post20864

Basically the deal was deposit £56, get £56 bonus which is then released after wagering £336 (6x deposit). Then there's your TGT fiver as well which you can claim of course. So definitely not as lucrative as RAF/TAF, but it's another option if you're worried about being able to clear the larger TAF £720 WR within the time allowed (no idea how long that is but it's probably quite doable though).

if you're worried about being able to clear the larger TAF £720 WR within the time allowed (no idea how long that is but it's probably quite doable though).

You need to complete the WR within 30days of signing up for the RAF. I don't know the rules for TGT link though.

If you've got funds it is feasible to deposit £750 and 1 big bet, should you find a good match with good liquidity
