      Hello
      I have read from a few threads that it seems to be nearly impossible to change the tracking status but what if you have never opened a real money account yet? At what point would I put in the code to be tracked from ps is it when I change to a real money account?
      I opened an account last year but never got round to putting money into it, does this count?

      Hey roopopper,

      Even with play money accounts, I understand that it may be quite difficult to have this retracked. The only way you can find out is by sending their support team an email and seeing what PokerStars say.

      I wouldn't get my hopes up for sure, but it as worth a shot anyways as you'll have nothing to lose and a lot to gain :)

      Best of luck,
      Gary

      i used to have a play money account with stars ages ago that i forgot about. when ftp went down i switched over and created a new account which got tracked for the first month, but then the affiliation got cut off and they told me it was because i had a previous account with them. they are extremely stubborn and wouldn't retrack me. its so frustrating. pokerstars is an immense site! hopefully one day they will become more lenient.

      Hey DrDunne,

      As Gary has pointed out, Stars aren't to lenient.
      There was a few site awhile ago which did but Stars has never given in. Even tried to get petition and that didn't work...several times.

      Just ask and try. All you can do.

      Regards,

      Kyle.

      :(

      That's a shame Roo, but it was always going to be a long shot anyways. Don't forget that we have loads of other Poker Rooms that you can track yourself too

      All the best,
      Gary
