Thanks!
As per my previous post, you need to
deposit &
play 50 chips on Santa Paws each day.
But you can 'deposit' just by moving your funds into & out of the sportsbook every time you play. If you don't do this (or don't deposit new funds) you wont get a card.
Good luck!
(I got another 10 today).
Err, No!!!! It seems, although for some reason this works, it is clearly not meant to.
I queried the lack of a cracker over the weekend and got this:-

Thank you for your e-mail.
After checking our system and records we can see that you did not in
fact make a fresh deposit of 50 on Saturday 17th. As this is part of
the terms and conditions we cannot therefore issue you with a cracker
for your play on that date.
---------------------------------------------------------------------
So I informed them that I had transferred from the sportbook, and that I had been told that was considered a "deposit", and they replied:-
---------------------------------------------------------------------
hank you for your e-mail.
Unfortunately the terms and conditions as shown on our website clearly
state that you
need to deposit, purchase and play. Please go to the
website to confirm this for yourself.
Information that is received from
other players at forums is not the best way to confirm terms and
conditions for any of our promotions and we do always give these on our
website.
It is considered not in the spirit of the promotion to use a
bonus that is given to you by us to qualify for another promotion and
this offer is run on a day to day basis and the full terms and

Looks like they are riled, and what's the betting they will be looking at other accounts that were just transferring from the sportsbook instead of depositing into the casino from, say, a card or Neteller.
It's bloody stupid though, I have to transfer to the sportsbook in order to withdraw, and the WR of the 10 prizes is easily met by depositing an additional 50 and wagering another 50 on the game of the week, so there is no transferring of any live bonus into the sportsbook and back again, these are cleared funds - but still, they clearly call it "abuse" (although in more polite language). All I have to do to comply is to withdraw from the sportsbook, and deposit DIRECTLY "another 50" each day from Neteller into the casino. The end result is the same, except they are dealing with all those tiddly withdrawals from the sportsbook - and doesn't this mean that full compliance actually costs them more just so that each day's 50 is a "new one".
I will have to make sure that the 50 I deposit is NOT the same one as has been withdrawn from their sportsbook, so to that end, does anyone know how the money is stored in Neteller so that I can make sure I am not using the same funds, but rather some of the 300 I withdrew from Golden Reef last night instead
It may already be too late, I may already be marked as "no Christmas for him any more" on my account.
