party bets poker bingo HELP!

[Maxxeh]

i can't register to any of the 'party' sites!

i'm trying to trade greens with someone, but every time i enter my account details it says:

Error:
Sorry, your registration could not be completed. Please try again. If the problem persists, please contact our Live Floorperson or E-mail us at info@partyaccount.com



when i contact the email address i get an automated reply telling me that it doesnt recognise my email as I'm not registered!

how stupid is that!

any ideas?

They provide 24 hours support via email or phone so just give them a ring:- 00-800-9999-7789. If your email isnt recognised it'd suggest you haven't successfully signed up so clear out your cookies and start again from your freebie site perhaps using a different email this time?

Also, if you already have a party account you can't set up another one ...

[Maxxeh]

if i do a freebie site with one email, can i do an offer for that site with another email? I didnt think you could!

I'll try clearing my cookies..if that doesnt work, I'll ring them in the morning..

Check the T&Cs of the freebie site and send them a support email just in case. I suppose the argument would be that the advertiser could suspect you having 2 accounts, however when you got to the stage of entering your postal address and credit card details it'd be easy to rule out whether or not you were an existing customer.

I dont even get that far though!

the only details i enter are my email, my username, and my password!

i tried a new email and a new username, and that doesn't help..
i wonder if regestrations are just down for some reason? although i doubt it..

I feel bad for not being able to register, as I have a trade to complete! I don't want to leave the other person hanging..

If you didn't get that far then they should have tracked the part of you inputting your details and it should then just be a case of contacting party to find out why you can't log-in and then it should be fine. Though it's worth asking the offer site before you do deposit to see if it still counts.

Something similar happened to me ... I was supposed to complete the bet hi/lo for £10 and just couldn't register at all. In the end I had to spend more and do the post office offer for £15+ because I didn't want to renege on the agreement.

Just keep communications open thoroughly with the trader, let him/her know you're not doing this on purpose and if it's going to cost you a couple of quid more to complete the trade, just do it if you can. If more people thought that way the trading area would be a really smooth process. As it is, offers don't track through no-ones fault, people take ages to communicate if they do at all, some sites take forever to answer support tickets, some sites take upwards of 3 weeks to give even a pending, problems like yours happen or some offers don't happen at all. In the end it's far too stressful!

Tried to edit but was too late .... here's what I wanted to add:-

EDIT:-

Just another point I thought of. At the moment if you're a non depositing player at Party then technically you're a "play money" player. I used to be a play money player on party because I signed up once and then never deposited. Then late last year I saw an offer on the 2+2 forums for 5 poker books if you signed up to party and deposited using whichever code they told me to. So i signed up afresh using a different email address and it all went through fine. Party paid the site, they sent me my 5 free poker books after I had played 250 raked hands (which happened in one session!). All was good.

[Maxxeh]

I have been keeping in contact with the trader every time I do something! you're right, communicating frequently is very important! at the moment they seem fine with the delay, I just don't like to keep people waiting!

i wish it was all straight foward

it's a good job they use freebie sites or they wouldn't get such dedicated visitors! lol

[Maxxeh]

Ok I just rang them..and they told me that they'd redirect my call to someone else..where I was left with the phone ringing for 8 minutes....I hung up

I dont know what to do...

If I do a lovefilm offer instead, do i have to actually get a movie from them?

Yep .. you have to have a DVD sent to you. I didn't do the free trial lovefilm offer, I did the 2for1 lovefilm ... which means I get 2 months for the price of one. Already since then I've got another month for free .. so so far, I've spent £8 in total and I'm already set to receive 12 dvd's. What's supercool about lovefilm is that you can take forever to send dvd's back. They send me them 2 at a time and the last couple I had for nearly 3 weeks.

I think Lovefilm is your best bet if that's an option for you. If you do the free one though I'd recommend paying the £3.99 for at least one months worth of rentals beyond the free trial as searching through the forums people have been known to have greens revoked for not doing so.

[Maxxeh]

wow thats actually a really good deal! have you tried/heard anything about the lovefilm Payg deal?

[vix]

No, I've not tried the PAYG lovefilm deal as I'm already signed up to the other lovefilm deal at the moment. It's my understanding that you can't do both simultaneously.

Do a search of the forums though, I remember a while back there were a lot of topics and mentions of lovefilm PAYG ... there are also some handy threads which give you codes to get more free months if you have the normal lovefilm subscription.

[Maxxeh]

OK thankyou! According to the offer description you can do both! (just FYI! incase you wanted to do it anytime!))
