They offer a $300 Match Deposit Bonus for the casino, so I deposited $300 from my Purple-lounge account to my Purple-lounge Poker account and proceeded to wager the required amount to have the bonus credited.

I wagered more than the required amount but they're refusing to credit the bonus saying that the deposit between the accounts doesn't count as a deposit. There is nothing in the terms for the offer saying that it doesn't, and I'm amazed that they don't consider it to be. I mean every other place I've ever played do (ladbrokes, victor chandler, bluesq, coral , gala to name but a few) and I've never had this problem with anyone before.

I've tried their contact on this board but they wont budge and now she says they consider the matter closed.

For the record I'm down about $1,500 with them overall.

They obviosly don't value their customers by showing no flexibility on a technicality like this, which I think says an awful lot about them.


Not sure if these are the same T&C as the ones you read, but:

Please note:

• The only deposit that is eligible for this bonus is your first single deposit of every month

• Funds from playing poker can be used to continue to meet the wager requirements. However, you must notify us that your first deposit for that month is to be used for the casino bonus at the time of deposit.
I think the CS were confused just a little bit, as you can use the transfer for the bonus, but, you have to inform them when you make that first deposit.....confusing!!!! I'd say 50/50 on this one on whether you'll get it or not. Maybe less.
