Alpari (UK) Limited ("Alpari UK") (Company Number 5284142) is authorised and regulated by the Financial Services Authority and reserves the right to alter, amend or terminate this Offer, or any aspect of it, at any time and without prior notice. We may make changes to these Offer Terms and will notify you of these changes by posting the modified Terms on the Alpari UK website. We recommend that you revisit these Terms regularly and, by your continued use of the Alpari UK website and services you accept any such modified Terms.
3. We reserve the right, at our sole discretion, to disqualify any individual that tampers or attempts to tamper with the operation of the Offer, or breaches the Offer Terms or our Terms and Conditions of Business.
4. Any dispute or situation not covered by these Offer Terms will be resolved by our management in a manner it deems to be the fairest to all concerned. That decision shall be final and/or binding on all entrants. No correspondence will be entered into.
5. If these Offer Terms are translated into a language other than English, then the English version of the Terms shall prevail where there is an inconsistency.
6. Subject to all other Terms, the Offer is available to Customers who have satisfied the Eligibility Criteria for the Offer ("Eligible Client") as set out in clause 7 below.
7. The Eligibility Criteria for the Offer are:
(a) that it shall only apply to Alpari UK Customers that have a live Classic or Micro account (this includes existing Classic account holders, existing Micro account holders and new Customers that open Classic or Micro accounts);
(b) that the Customer must elect to opt-in to take part in the Offer by expressly confirming their decision on the Offer landing page on the Alpari UK website;
(c) that the Customer makes a new deposit into their Classic or Micro account/s after opting-in to the Offer;
(d) that, prior to opting-in to the Offer, the Customer has not made any withdrawal during the Promotional Period from their Classic or Micro account/s (see Example 2 of Clause 9 below for illustrative purposes only);
(e) that there is no minimum deposit required, but that credit bonus/es are only deposited into the Customer’s account once the total net deposit value during the Deposit Period reaches a qualifying value of USD 1,000 or higher (the total value of deposits that bring a negative account balance to a zero account balance do not form part of the total net deposits for the purposes of calculating a credit bonus); and

At the end of the promotional period the reward will be forfeited if the requisite number of standard lot round turn transactions has not been made (please see below for promotional period and calculation of credit bonus details).

This will be done automatically by our Risk Management System that limits your potential losses.

(a) The 'Deposit Period' (the period during which qualifying deposits may be made) runs from 31 March 2012 (00:00:01 UK time) to 11 May 2012 (20:59:59 UK time); and

19. Credit Bonus will be available for withdrawal from 28 May 2012 subject to the conditions of the promotion being met.
20. It is important that Eligible Clients are aware that their risks are not limited to the deposit and that by making a qualifying trade it is possible to lose more than the deposit. In some circumstances, losses may be considerably more than any initial or minimum deposit.
21. These Terms and Conditions are dated 31 March 2012.
