      Hey there,

      I played about 1000 hands on pokerstars between the 11th - 19th January, and I don't seem to have picked up any PS points. Also, only the two most recent dates appears in pending. Did i just not earn any points, or is something up?

      Hi MoneyDearest,

      If it says they are pending, this is definitely a good sign. Why not drop our support a ticket and they will be able to check things out for you ;)

      Best regards,
      Gary

      Hallo!

      Have you create your acc on Pokerstars with the marketing code strategy-en? Do you have the point information sharing inside the option tab at the stars software?

      If you can't say: YES, I think your acc is not tracked due Pokerstrategy. :(

      Hey MoneyDearest,

      Have you previously received points from Stars? Or is this a new problem? :)

      Hey guys,

      thanks for the replies! I sent a a ticket to support, so their on it for me ;-)!

      Something weird happened, I definitey was tracked, and it still says I'm tracked on the pokerroom section. So i contacted pokerstars, and they say it's because I don't have information sharing available. I couldn't find this option in the lobby, and they said this is because I didn't sign up through pokerstrategy. Then, I showed them that in fact I did, so they've forwarded this to their affiliates program. Hoping to hear something soon...

      I really hope they can sort this for me, I'd :s_cry: if I couldn't get me pokerstars account tracked...

      Hey MoneyDearest,

      If you was receiving points from PokerStars before, then our Support team should be able to sort this out for you :)

      Best of luck with this and i'm interested to see how it turns out, so keep me updated! :]

      How did you show them, that you sign up through Strategy? With a screenshot from here?

      Yeah, I took a screenshot and forwarded it.

      However...

      It turns out that I signed up four years ago and had forgotten about it :f_cry: :s_cry: :f_cry: ...

      I've a horrible feeling I might have signed up at PartyPoker too, and had a FullTilt account ages ago. (Not that I even ever played more than 10 hands with them!! ;( )

      There's NO one playing William Hill these days, can't even open four tables at NL5.

      What's next .... can I get decent volume at volume/fish ratio at bwin?

      I guess I should sulk on to the "which poker room is right for you" thread...

      and the "I couldn't get my account tracked with PokerStars" support group... ;(

      aww sigh :(

      and LOL at the support groups. indeed there are many members frustrated in this respect.
      do you also have a tracked Party poker account? afaik, Stars is the only room that untracks players after they have already been receiving points.

      Stars only untrack the players, when they have open a second account with the marketing code. But they will not untrack players, if they open their first acc with the code.

      I had the same problem. I had the chance to open a second account after closing my first one and sign in with the marketing code. After 6 month the tracking over Strategy was stopped. ;(

      And also a german member has earned 400k strategypoints over Stars and now his account is not longer tracked.

      I know so many members who are crying if they think about this point.
