I tried to sign on to pay 25 but it insists on $50 …I’ve never played in a NABC Robot individual. If there is a code or if there is a way to pay $25 please advise.

Your ACBL# is probably not showing.
Ditto on the $25 fee but paid $40. wct1313

Is the $25 fee a typo?? As a first time entrant, it is underhanded to make us think we are getting a deal at $40 . I feel certain that BBO has higher standards and there must be some mistake. Perhaps first time entrants will see a $15 credit adjustment??
Done
I WAS GOING TO REGISTER BUT IT SAID IT WOULD COST 50 BUCKS? …. YOU SENT ME A EMAIL SAYING THAT FOR FIRST TIME PARTICIPANTS IT WOULD ONLY COST 25?? WHATS GOING ON?
I was charged $50 dollars and it’s my 1st time playing in a Robot gold tournament. Is this correct? Seems high as I thought it was $25. Please confirm this is the correct price
All the comments are accurate. There does not seem to be a way to get the $25 entry.
I also paid 40
Username is BigMouse12
ACBL number 7447639
I also paid full amount but have not previously played in an NABC Robot Individual; please refund difference. Thank you.
Never mind – when I checked my account I was actually only charged $35.
I’m also interested in the $25 fee; I haven’t yet registered. Please advise.
In the past you always sent emails about the event; this time, nothing. I finally just got an email from ACBL about it, one day too late to register for the early bird discount. So not only did I miss out on all the practice tournaments, I get to pay an extra $10. OK, I paid it, but please don’t feel that you came by it legitimately.
@StanR we sent emails, did you sign for updates? https://www.bridgebase.com/mp/nabc/nabc_upd.php
I also paid 40 for tournament. As a first time player I should only
Pay 25. How to I get a refund. Lspovman
Hello everyone, there was indeed a display bug, the price displayed was not the right one for the bboers who never participated to an NABC. It is now fixed.
However, don’t worry. If you registered between yesterday and today, you did pay $25 and not $50.
You have never played an NABC robot, yet you paid $40 and asked for a refund of the difference? You will be refunded within the next few days.
And in the meantime, keep practicing before the big day! 🙂 Have fun
I am playing for the first time and paid $40. Please issue a refund. Thank you. BBO ID is whistwoman
I would like to cancel my registry as I am unable to play. Please refund my registry fees which were $40.00 I think…I think I received the early registry discount. I have sent a message to BBO support relative to this cancellation as well. Thank you.

Hello, I am interested in playing in the NABC Robot Individual and it says in the email I received;
Entry fee is just $25 for first-time participants ($50 if you’ve played in an NABC Robot Individual before)
yet when I tried to sign up it shows $44. What is the correct rate? I see some people are asking for a refund.
Hi, $25 discount is only for 1st time players. You already played in March (Spring NABC Robot) so you received a $6 voucher, that’s why you paid $44, this is the correct price 🙂
Same here. Paid $40 for by July 6 $10 discount. Now it says $25 is the entry fee. Please refund difference.
Done
I also paid $40 and would like a refund please. Thank you
I also paid $40 and this is my first tournament. Please refund $15.
Thanks
is it a one time fee and covers all three days, or a fee for each day???
is it a one time fee and covers all three days, or a fee for each day???
Entry fee covers the 3 days!
I also paid $40, and am looking for $15 refund, since I have not played in this tournament before.
Done
I didn’t join this time. Why ? I have < 500 points and in this category I can't earn gold points. Wonder why. For me it was a deal breaker
@Alexandra I did not sign up for updates because I did not know the tournament was coming. I received emails prior to each of at least the last 7 (going back to Spring 2018) of these in time to sign up for the discount and play in the practice sessions, and I did not sign up for “updates” for each tournament. So,, I guess that now you have to know when each tournament is coming in order to sign up to be notified that the tournament is coming?
Yes, I also paid $40 and should have paid $25 as I’ve never played in NABC. Hopefully a refund of difference would be nice?
Also paid $40. For first timers, should be $25? How do we request refund of difference?
Anonymous who want a refund, please send me your BBO Username.

Not sure if my comment were posted. This will be the first time to play in NABC Robot tourney for $25.00, but it shows $50. Will I receive a credit for $25?

OK, I registered and paid $50. It is my understanding that there was a display bug and I will receive a refund of $25.
Hi twobytwocw, you can’t have a refund because you already played in an NABC (2017 summer NABC Robot) and this discount only applied to First players
This is my first time and I’ve been charged $50 which I’ve requested ten dollars be refunded. Now I’ve found that I could play for $25 since it’s me first! So please refund. Help. Thanks.
