Poker Source unable to activate account

[biramboy]

hey me again
i give up even trying to get anywhere with any of these free bankrolls for online poker sites once ya register with the poker room of ya choice and send the information required they find some way to reneg on ank bonus

heres a new one
few weeks ago i registered with www pokersource.com
and then registered with the part ypoker then come the part of verification i click the phone support and i got the call back service everything was sweet then and a week went past and then another and i received an email stating i need to verify my account again but this time i need to dial an international number which i explained i cant do then they sent another email stating my account will be closed
so if i want there service i need to pay the $65 to have the international service on my phone but also they want the number to show on there caller display

not many forign country offer caller number display outside of there own country

theres no mention of this having to have international dialing and caller number display on the phone

im from australia so if ya wanna take them up on there free bankrolls find out if your phone can call idd and has number display otherwise you will get denied an account with them

this is there reply to me explaining that at present my phone service is not permitted to make any outbound calls

extremly rude if ya ask me


First, please don’t compare us with any other site. We have over 100,000 members and you’re welcome to read our forum regarding our reputation.



As for your phone, what percentage of the WORLD has a phone that won’t make OUTGOING calls? I mean other than a convenience store! Come on, get real. Isn’t it bad enough that McDonalds has to put a warning on their coffee cups that contents may be hot! Take some responsibility.



And you were not rejected, you were denied. Once you “fix” your phone situation you’re welcome to try again, thanks.

Why not just go out and buy a $20 throw-away cell phone?

should advertise on there main page before registration
please make sure your phone can make international calls if your registering from another country and that your phone needs to have caller id activated so when you call your number can be verified as the registered number

because if you signup here with partypoker as an example and when comes time to activate the account they have a call back service that you click call me and put your number in and they call you right back when they spoke to me on the phone they said account is activated but when i never recieved the bonus i checked email and found the security dep saying i need to call to verify my account of it will be rejected when i emailed them and said i only have incoming calls and no international calling they didnt want to know me anymore and closed the account and compared me to mcdonalds

Have you heard of capital letters and punctuation? Furthermore, there and their mean different things.

[winbig]

err, nvm....you only get a phone number (which would show up on caller ID) from yahoo if you sign up for their phone-in service.

I go back years with the PSO people. They are a competing company to the one I work for and yet I still will tell you they are great. They have to verify these free bankrolls like this. If they didn't the fraud would be ridiculous.

[biramboy]

yes i understand that they probably get lots of people commiting fraud somehow

when i first registered with them they called me on my phone number to verify my account i had to click the call back service they supply and i explained to the gentleman that i cant call outside of australia and to get to call outside australia il need to activate international calling which i will have to pay for he said its ok your accounts verified because they called me on my number

and even if i could call international my number wont show om there caller id as our number is of a silent unlisted number

they should advertise on there front page that if your from another country please confirm with the ph company if your number will show in international caller id service

theres no mention atall about having to call them back after they call to confirm
