Ever since the beginning of their bankruptcy woes CET properties lowered their comps by almost 90%.

It appears from my offers for September, they are going back to the pre-bankruptcy schedule of offers.

Can others please confirm if their offers for September are going back to normal?

If so, I suspect that they realized cheapening out on comps is not going to rope customers in when facing bankruptcy.

Thanks.

I'm not sure where you get that information about lowering their comps by almost 90%, but I've noticed no differences from before to now. I just a regular players card holder (no diamond or 7 star or anything) and receive free room offers, free concerts, free play offers, free shopping offers every week begging me to come gamble.

I don't know if your ADT is high or you are just the exception to the rule but I am Diamond and I get a free room here and there, BOGO buffet and $10 free play! I'm not sure if it has to do with the bankruptcy or the fact that there are less rooms available in AC but my AC offers have decreased, don't know what percentage.
My Vegas offers still are pretty good but over the past 6 months they've decreased also.

Yes, it may be an AC thing but I remember seeing message boards about the issue being all over.

I have a high ADT so before anyone throws that into the mix.

I went from getting $300 free-play twice a week to twice a month. Doesn't exactly compel me to visit, well, more than twice a month.

Suddenly in September my offers have jumped back to twice per week.

I definitely have a hight ADT, but only 2 or 3 visits per year. My offers are for Las Vegas and I don't live in Nevada. I'm sure all of those are factors. It's actually ridiculous how many offers I receive.

June/July/August are summer vacation months in AC and September is not. For me at Cleveland and Windsor where there isn't much seasonality the comps have stayed consistent.

Something about that doesn't sound right, at least in comparison to the offers I get.
Maybe the games you play? Maybe a long history of your play is in the system?
Maybe they don't like you ;-) are you a fairly nice guy?
Many others here that know conditions all over the country, I'll look forward to their comments.

BTW, I have not started receiving offers for Sept either, not the kind of offers I'm looking for anyway.
Got a couple vouchers in mail yesterday that are still mid and late August.

Were you actually going twice a week before they scaled back?

My local would give me freeplay weekly to look like they were generous (I'd really go there every 2 months or so), but if I didn't put in the appropriate play each visit, they would change or stop that weekly offer.

Maybe when CET was first facing bankruptcy beancounters panicked and worried people would scorch the earth on mailers? $2400 of freeplay in a month is pretty significant. If you somehow decided you were never going back to CET, I'd cash all those in before quitting. But by now they probably see they were losing more money by being more restrictive with the offer periods. Typical CET management fail.

Just went and checked, and added.
I have $2600 in unused free cash vouchers for Aug, neatly filed.
Just redeemed $1400 on Aug 2-3.
This at my local casino only, just a long 3 hour drive away ;-(
Lots of other offers laying around for around the country, wife said I can't go ;-(
And my casino is Indian, operated in partnership with Harrah's, which may make a big difference.

Lots of people here know lots about this stuff, hopefully they will chime in w/pertinent info for us all.

Or it may be a secret thing

I also wonder who determines and pays for comps for non-owned CET casinos like the Indian or Rock Gaming casinos. My guess is that it might vary some depending on the operating agreement and the type of comp (room/food/free play/cash) for each casino.

Info was not entirely correct, so I correct now.
Another $520 in free cash vouchers on hand for Aug, so total unused is $3120.
I had mentioned that I was still receiving Aug offers, but hadn't filed them yet, so had missed them in the tabulation. Just trying to be accurate in this discussion, still looking for data from anyone and everyone that can contribute. Big thanks in advance, I'm buying drinks ;-)

Not sure why but Caesars WINDSOR as of Aug 4th shut down and will be removing the Kiosks machines where you could check your offers, check your balance for free meals and the overall status of your account.

Pretty sure I saw one machine where you swipe to pick up that days rewards that is now for the Americans to get their monthly TOLLS refunded . Not sure how much longer they will be kicking back the tolls paid to cross back and forth with the Canadian dollar dropping like it is....which means more Americans will be crossing to try their luck at $1.30 per US dollar

In your case it is probably because you were doing things like earn 100 points and get $5 or something like that your adt went to hell and so did comps.

90% is a stretch, but I've seen these complaints elsewhere so I think there's some merit. I'm in a unique position, just started developing a relationship and have been taking super care to maximize my ADT. My offers are good and I'm using one this weekend.

TR still beats the pants off of MLife in terms of compensation for play.

Actually I didn't know the saying, had to search a couple times till I got it right, now as I type can't get the same results.
Now I'm not sure of your intent. Maybe you doubt my word, fine with me I guess.
I was trying to explain to another member my experience with TR. Working hard BTW.
Everything I wrote was true, don't know how to post pics here (yet), but not sure that particular shortcoming on my part changes the discussion much.

I have the offers I said I have, said they didn't coincide well with the offers another member said they had.
Asked nicely for others to chime in so we, or at least I, could make more sense out of the TR program.
You seemed to respond with, "You know the saying. Pogtfo". Is that the most you have to contribute? Can you perhaps help us out a bit more? Or just go away quietly? I know your screen name, that means you are not new here. Were you trying to be helpful, or funny? I'm confused, again. Please elaborate, at your leisure, if you don't mind.

2F,

FWIW, "pictures or it didn't happen" is a common response to claims of big hands, big comps, jackpots, whatever. I think GWAE was teasing you (he can answer himself, of course), but with some intent, with you as a relatively new member. No meanness intended, just the standard of conversation here, with so many anonymous posters making claims.

If you want to post a picture of your vouchers, let me know and I'll help you do it. If you don't want to, it would be entirely understandable IMO. You might look at the various Jackpot threads, and especially a guy named Chauncey (can't think of his exact name, but you should see him there) who has won various huge drawings and cars, and he posts a pic of the stub or check (with his name scrubbed) when he wins, for good examples of what GWAE's talking about.

I'm still platinum and I never gamble at CET.
I'm simply platinum due to the total rewards visa card.
After a year I assumed I would lose my status.
Was in Vegas last week, got a new players card since old one expired.
They said I was still Platinum :-)
This low roller still gets to jump the buffet lines :-)

Just a low/middle diamond player. My comps/offers since January have remained the same ( around190 ) for all properties going out from the current day to the next 5 months. Have two sets of reservations over the next three months for 5 nights plus comps for free for each trip. Have never had a phone call to TR to reserve a stay that required me to pay. It may be an expected/average daily loss issue. Just a thought otherwise not sure why you had a loss of offers.

Dear BABS,
Thanks, once again, for looking out for me - for helping me. I will accept all the help I can get, here or wherever. I assumed GWAE was 'teasing' me, your words. Not a problem. My statement(s) were true, still are. If anyone doesn't believe them, that's OK with me. I was, I am still, trying to provide some info about the TR system as a whole. I wasn't bragging, I can only assume that there are members with offers many times that of mine, and that there are members with offers that are less.

I would really like to get a 'feel' for how the system works for everyone, different local casinos, different parts of the country, different patterns of play, or games. I want to see that info shared here, where the hell else am I supposed to look for it?

Again, BABS, thanks for your help. Statements are true, amounts are true, I can take pictures, I have cameras. I do not know how to post pictures here, know you have to put them in 'photobucket' or something and then do links to that. I can do that if necessary, with your or some bodies help, I am willing to. Isn't my word good enough? If I jump thru the hoops and post pics of vouchers (something I have never seen here) will my word be good enough next time? I don't mean to sound combative, not at all. I'm just perplexed. I guess you need to help me some more. You are beginning to feel like my little sister ;-)

75 points to get $10.

yeah, I guess it's due to me no longer playing 500 points on TapHouse Poker to get 125 bonus tier credits.
instead I've been doing the minimum 75 points then playing live poker, which is more profitable.

unfortunately, it seems reward credit multiplier days don't apply to comps earned at the poker table :(

Once again BABS,
Statements and amounts are true. If you give me an email address I can send you pic of the rest of Aug vouchers immediately. Then you can post to forum. Then we can move along with the discussion. It is a discussion I would like to read, and think about. Obviously I do not have the vouchers I redeemed last Sun and Mon, they kept them, stamped 'void' on them, wrote their something on them (name and employee #?).

You are not as 'hidden' or as secretive as some here. You know I am not, that is a joke, I am TwoFeathers.
PM me an email address, I'll send you a pic of Aug vouchers still open. You can post to the Forum, then we can move along.

OK, does that mean that most CET properties do not use paper vouchers? My vouchers come in the mail, and they are paper. Often there is a page of them so I have to use scissors to cut them up and file them. They also appear in my 'offers' online at Total Rewards. But I carry the 'paper' to the cage and get the cash. How is this done elsewhere?

Please remember that this is a 'Tribal' casino in North Carolina, operated in a partnership with Harrah's/CET.

You got a problem with that?

I can backup 2F. I get paper offers twice a month from Cherokee for between $10 and $40 per week, they show up online but you have to have the paper certificate from the mailing to redeem.

OK, does that mean that most CET properties do not use paper vouchers? My vouchers come in the mail, and they are paper. Often there is a page of them so I have to use scissors to cut them up and file them. They also appear in my 'offers' online at Total Rewards. But I carry the 'paper' to the cage and get the cash. How is this done elsewhere?



CET is very gradually converting to a system where freeplay is loaded electronically like nearly every other casino chain has already had for several years. Tunica and Hammond are attempting to go "paperless" this summer at least.

Thanks drmario
The forum seems to think I'm nuts. OK, I'm nuts. But I am not a liar.
When telling a story, the storyteller gets a certain amount of leeway,
But when detailing 'offers', and 'winnings' and such, that has to be precise, exact, and 'on the money' shall we say.

I have no retractions to make. Period. If I wrote it, then it was true. Again, period.

Once again BABS,
Statements and amounts are true. If you give me an email address I can send you pic of the rest of Aug vouchers immediately. Then you can post to forum. Then we can move along with the discussion. It is a discussion I would like to read, and think about. Obviously I do not have the vouchers I redeemed last Sun and Mon, they kept them, stamped 'void' on them, wrote their something on them (name and employee #?).

You are not as 'hidden' or as secretive as some here. You know I am not, that is a joke, I am TwoFeathers.
PM me an email address, I'll send you a pic of Aug vouchers still open. You can post to the Forum, then we can move along.



2F,

I'm not calling you out on this. I'm just telling you how it works here out of friendship and moderation (in saying that GWAE isn't attacking you, just teasing you into showing that you really get comps at that level); the guys challenge each other to put up or shut up. Makes you part of the group, I think. I've PM'd you my email, and if you want to send pics of your vouchers, I'll post them for you.
If the House lost every hand, they wouldn't deal the game.

Put up or shut up you say?
Got your PM, emailed you a pic of the vouchers, hope it was clear enough.
I can take a pic of each voucher individually and post them myself if necessary, that shows dates and amounts and store, more clearly. But that should be beside the point,, at this point.

The 'guys' can challenge me all they want, not a problem really. I don't blame them, by the way. I came here for info, info I have gleaned. Didn't cost me a dime. I'm a happy village idiot.

Gee 2f, it was just a quick jab and joke. Sorry if you took it any other way. It is a very common saying when people talk about having/winning more than 95% of th population.

OK, it was a lot funny, I laughed myself.
EB got his eye on 19,000, and I'm an easy target.
Just posting as the blissfully happy village idiot, that's me.

20,000, now there is a really pretty number.
Put on shades EB (for the white background) and start typing.

Cheers to all! 2F

Ok, here's what 2F sent me. I masked his identifying info and the codes (messy, sorry), but the original w/name and codes was quite obviously legit. I also get these, but not for these amounts or in this volume, so I'll vouch 100% that they're real.

2F

Seriously??? Sigh!!!

This is just dumb in so many ways. Posting this kind of stuff is ridiculous IMO.
-----------------------------------------------
2F you're way to sensitive all the time.

You should be ashamed of yourself for allowing anyone to goad you into anything(were you tricked as a kid a lot?). And the real kicker is, because you're always so paranoid about every little thing people say, you're the only one who didn't realize he was just teasing you. I wouldn't call you the village Idiot( self given, defeatists name) , but you're like a social hypochondriac, or whatever you want to call it.

I would really hate to see what would happen if someone gave you any real sh*t.

TR is always a mystery to me. I visited AC in October '14 but did not get rated on some sessions. Got some good offers. Visited again in April but the offers were MIA except free rooms. Did not get rated again on some sessions. Got some good offers. Now they are MIA again. I did move from NY to FL and out of nowhere got junket offers (really cheap) for AC and Biloxi. Plus 5 free nights in Vegas (Rio: my favorite) Christmas week. I have not been to Vegas since June '13.

Last week I was able to get 3 free nights in AC this month: now none. Not that it matters: I am flying to AC with TR next week.

Borgata is a lot better and very consistent with free rooms / match play / buffet and show tickets IMO. I just find the fun factor is absent there: dealers are too serious.

TBH my ADT is an unmanaged mess: I play $40-60 bets @ Caesars for a few hours and will then spend the entire night @ Bally's with $5 bets. Plus occassional trips over to Harrah's for an hour or 2. I just really like dump casinos: lighting up huge cigars and knocking back beer nonstop.

These are all for different dates. This is no different than what other players get at different CET casinos. Back when I was in the good graces of Rincon my monthly offers would total $4,000 or more -- but never more than about $300 on a given day.

Indeed, and it has been quite a burden to get said free play via download. I was at CET in AC last Saturday and stayed for about 3 hours, bouncing between slots and Blackjack. I was fortunate enough to be up $300+ after 2 good sessions of BJ, so I thought I would use the free play to get some gas money.

After multiple $1 machines and contstantly re-inserting the card, no luck getting the free play! It almost became a scene, where slot attendants would watch me and then ask, "Do you need help, sir?" and I would politely decline. There is nothing they would be able to do if I asked for their help.

This method of hit or miss free play is just terrible, I can't go to a CET property where I have an offer "waiting" only to find out it can't be downloaded due to this hopelessly flawed system.

Every other property in AC has this down cold, but CET has a "delay" that clearly can go on for HOURS a night. Not a good sign if they want to rope people in for Free Play offers they can't even deliver on!
