Resorts Stingy on Comps?

I go to AC a couple times per month, and have always played in CET properties because they've given me decent comps. But recently I went to Resorts for the first time, and is it just me or do they seem super stingy with comps?

When I opened a new players card, I asked if they tier matched or had any promotions for new players with premium cards. The girl said "No, we actually don't have any new player promotions." ..... meanwhile 2 other friends who were helped by someone else got $25 free play and a bunch of coupons....

I played for a bit and did maybe $2k coin-in on slots, and my card balance is showing a whopping 0 tier points and $0.10 comp dollars.

On top of what seems like terrible comps/customer service, there was a huge number of broken machines, and no cocktail waitresses. I don't think I'm going to spend much time here.

I can't really comment on the slots for earning comps, I play only table games at Resorts. But I did notice, they were ok with comping me for 30 minutes of play at a $25 Blackjack game.

My average bet was $100 that day and I made a decent chunk of change when I cashed out. Went to check my comps and it was $13.45, so enough to get a meal at the food court.

Perhaps your card wasn't inserted properly in the machine? I noticed when I did play the slots for the bonus slot play, it took a few attempts to get the card to register in the machine. Also, they currently have a promotion for new and inactive members, so I don't know if you qualified or not at the time, but maybe wait a year and go back to see if you qualify?

From what I hear, Tropicana is the most generous with Comps followed by Resorts. CET are by far the stingiest with Comps and if it were not for the free room offers, I would probably stop going all together to CET properties.

Its $250 coin in per point at resorts so u sgould hav earned about 8 points

Did u check online? At the casino their system upgrades a bit slow so if u didnt wait a few minutes it might not show. Especially if u checked at the slot machine itself

Tropicana is most generous with offers AND most quick to renege on them. Even stopping in and using comp dollars to buy a cup of coffe can result in ur account being locked

If u did $2k in coin in and come back take freeplay and only do $500 coin in ur card can be locked. They insist on consistent and same level play

On the boardwalk I like Bally's / Caesars because the machines actually display your point progression and that you can order drinks from the machine. At the Trop and Resorts it's a mystery what each machine gives in points and there definitely some cocktail waitress deadzones. I haven't done the bookkeeping but Resorts has given me good freeplay after some miserly coin in so I don't feel like they would be the worst.

Seems strange. I played until I lost $100 a few years ago and I'm sure I got about $7 in comps to eat. Maybe there is more than one selection on the machines and you picked the wrong one. They screwed me over on a new member promotion $100 loss rebate that was never delivered on, they even intentionally entered a different PIN number than I requested. Atlantic City casinos aren't suckers, they'll con the cons with no remorse or consequences. All I can think is actual losses or wins affect comps or there is a delay before your play hits the system. Maybe if you checked it the next day or hours later, you'll see more in comps.

Their system delay is only a few minutes. Nothing major

One possibility is he demagnetized his card by keeping it near his cell phone and nothing registered when he inserted it. Thats rare but i have seen it although not at resorts

I logged in online and it says $0.77 comp dollars, 0 tier points

I didn't play a ton, but def more than the $250 coin in to earn a point. I also made sure my card was registering each time I put it in.

I'm not expecting any comps for a few hundred dollars play, I was just trying to see what their system awards since they do not publish it like Total Rewards.

Sorry to say something went wrong with ur card. U can see if they hav some record of it at customer service that is the error may b internally but if ur card was simply not recording u r probably screwed

For 2k coin in u should hav $20-40 in shopping dollars. Different days are different amounts which may b why they dont publish it

Calendars are for 7 day a week freeplay but doubt u will get anything based on 0 points
