On 26 June I received an email from 888 offering entry into AussieMania $3,000 tournament if I played 40 SnGs in the next week. I thought, "Why not?" and registered. I sent a request through their support site, asking whether there was any way to track how many I'd played to ensure meeting the requirements (I've been sick and haven't played much volume). I received no response but thought, "Oh well, if I qualify all's well and if I don't, no big deal."
On 3 July I received a confirmation that I had qualified. Great, right? Well, the email stated that I had won a seat in the tournament starting 20 June. Hmmm, this is where my issue mirrors that within the thread, "888 is so funny." I have checked my 'Tournament Ticket' status which is empty and perused the lobby for the relevant tournament, to no avail.
I dutifully sent off another request for an explanation via 888's support site. I've yet to receive a response and my concern is that I'll be deafened by silence once more.
Has anyone else had the same or similar problem? I am not a complete dullard but have been known to slip up on occasion - I'm prepared to wear the dunce's cap on this one if someone could kindly make sense of this.
