Default No Party Rakeback

Straight from my affiliates mouth:

Up.. Down.. Up.. Down.. What can I say? Party poker JUST had a meeting to discuss rakeback and whether to allow us to do it. I had a DONE DEAL this morning.. I mean it was DONE and I was creating codes for everyone.. We were ready to switch over to the new site and everything.
I then get a phone call 5 mins before sending out codes to everyone STOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOP dont send out codes.

I say what? Well the heads at party poker are having a meeting... we'll call you within an hour to tell you what the result was.

Phone rings 5 mins ago.. Sorry, it appears Party is reversing its course and NOT allowing rakeback of any kind. They will give the final information tomorrow, but it appears rakeback at party poker is OFFICIALLY DEAD.

If I hear anything, you'll be the first to know..

I'm not one of the big guns, so I don't get personal phone calls, but I do have two emails in to Party awaiting responses, and quite honestly, I'm not at all surprised by this. Why won't Party allow (legal) rakeback? Because they don't need to - simple as that.

Again, I appreciate those of you who are being patient with me and giving me a chance to set something up here... I'll post as soon as I know anything solid.

I just read this on 2+2 as well.
I sent off an email to an affiliate just before reading the news, hopefully his reply will contain some info on this meeting.

Party poker asked me to not say rakeback was 100% dead yet until the official word tomorrow.. There is a small glimmer of hope, so i guess dont burn down the site yet.

Will update you when i have more news

I edited the title of this thread so people wouldn't thing it was some stupid bad beat story. Hope you don't mind.

That sounds fishy to me.

I emailed my affi as soon as I read Chad's post (as well as others around here and there).

They replied with, "We have heard nothing of the sort AND the program we are running is not new. It has been in place for a very long time. If we hear anything on the contrary, we'll notify you."

I'm not giving up yet, but I wasn't giving up on Party getting the skins back either.

If no RB, no Party for me, ever again.
