New player bonus
Probably a stupid question, but...
I joined Sky Poker recently, depositing £100 after watching Sky Poker on TV
The guy said 'deposit your money and recieve 200% bonus up to £500
This implies it is instant. Now I am not that naive, but when does the 200% bonus actually kick in?
Grateful for your help.

I just feel a bit cheated.
When they said on the telly:'make your deposit and recieve your 200% bonus' is seemed like it was going to be given straight away. It's not easy to simply 'recieve' your bonus, is it?
I know it's not mesnt to be, and I am not particularly naive, but I think Sky Poker could be a little clearer about it, and mention it motr prominently thean buried in T&Cs.
Gripe over
Not sticking up for sky, just pointing out that he didn`t undersand the promo.
I`m lazy, gimme some free money NOW.
