Hi this is Marlsss (forum name hasn't updated since I moved from Ireland to UK)

Just noticed my monthly priority rewards are down, I got 20% less from what I usually get for the same ? Is this a mistake? Or have I missed some announcements that were made?

    Hi,

    I'm not currently aware of any changes, or of any announcements being made as to a change in Priority Rewards.

    I'll have a word & see what they say, & if anything relevant, I'll get back to you.

    Did you play more short-handed games than usual last month? If so, the Jump Start promo will have an effect on what you'd usually expect to receive for a given number of points earned - you get double the number of points when playing 3 or less handed but you're still only paying the same amount of rake in total over those hands.

    For example, if you earned 10K points in a month playing 6-handed cash, you'd get a payment of circa £150 in priority rewards at the end of that month. If you played the entire month 3-handed and made 10k points, your priority payment would only be around £75 instead. I know it was something that threw me when I crunched the numbers after making priority for the first time.

    No more than usual. Aside from times I've gone travelling i've kept up priority for the last 2 years or so and it's been pretty much the same month on month

    Hi,

    I can now confirm that Prio Rewards have NOT been cut, changed or amended in any way.

    Maybe your new account is sterling-based, & the old one Euro-based, which might initially cause some confusion?
