    In case I mess this up, I'm copying the oficial release......

    If you earned 1250 points, normally you'd get paid at 1p per point  = £12.50  In August, you would be paid 1.2p per point = £15.00.

    If you earned 7189 points, normally you'd get paid at 2.2p per point  = £158.16  In August, you would be paid 2.4p per point = £172.54

    With Cash for Points, you only start earning a bonus after you earn 500 Poker Points.

    Typically, you'd then earn 0.8p for every point earned.

    With Super Cash for Points during August, you'll start earning 1p per point when you hit 500 Poker Points - as if you'd already hit the 1,000-1,999 tier.

    No extra work for you, just a higher earning rate and a bigger bonus paid in September!

    This continues throughout the tiers, but remember that you still have to earn a minimum of 500 Poker Points to earn the minimum payout!

    Make sure you are part of the Cash for Points promotion by entering the code 'POINTS' in the Free Bets section of My Account if you haven't already.

    Please note that the Cash for Points display on the homepage when you're logged in, won't show the boosted amount, it will display your Cash for Points at the usual tier.

    Confused.com?

    Don't be.

    Just remember that in August you will earn your C4P - sorry S4CP - at ONE LEVEL ABOVE the regular level.

    July will be exactly as normal, & everyone will be paid as normal, on the normal basis.

    What about loyal players who earn less than 500 points month in, month out?

    It remains as is, Del.

    If you could try stuff like Happy Hour, & Early Bird, it might help you get above that 500 point threshold. I know it is not easy for everyone, but I hope that helps.
     
    If you are unsure how Happy Hour & Early Bird works, just say, & I'll provide Links to the details.

    Then the following month you'll have to do it again for the Priority 3+ benefits.

    Don't go booking any holidays anytime soon :P

    Hi Tikay, ty for the reply.

    Think I have played close to 4k games on Sky and usually reach 200'ish points per month, which is bit annoying when c4p gets mentioned!

    Just an idea, but why cant ppl who dont qualify for c4p in a month, receive £5 for each 1000 points they hit?

    Surely if this was to happen it would be an incentive for small stakes players to stay on Sky, which also provide profit (eg £5 for 1000 points provides £100 aprox in rake).

    Sry not meant to rain on your thread, Derek.

    Lol, no worries Derek, I'm used to it, & it was a fair question.

    I'll certainly make Suit-City aware of your comments.

    Have you tried Happy Hours or Early Bird Derek? It does make a HUGE difference if you can manage a few sessions that way.
     
    Best of luck fella, anyway.

    I might be wrong but I think Del only plays SnGs (or maybe some MTTs) but not cash, so couldn't use either of them promotions.

    I did actually make a suggestion a little while ago, I think it just got missed which is fair enough with the amount of threads that get posted, but I think there should be some sort of Happy Hour for SnG players, so you get 50% extra C4P on all your DYMs, HU SnGs etc between 5-6pm or whatever, so all formats are catered for.

    I play all formats fairly equally so am not too fussed but I know there are plenty of players who have never once played cash.
