Booking Harrah's AC 1st time

#1

This is a heads up that if you're not currently rated with Harrah's
for AC casinos (e.g. you have no online offers) and you plan on an AC
visit, it may be advantageous to book online.

Bev (my wife) resurrected her long dormant card (no play since 2002)
with play while we were on vacation at Lake Tahoe in September. Her
home casino was reset to Harrah's Tahoe and she's received offers
there since.

We decided to extend our New Years at Caesars-AC by a stay in advance
at Showboat on her account, where she'll complete the play to extend
Diamond through next year. We booked online. Two days later I find
that she's been extended $100 cash, $100 comps, and a $100 gift card
to the Pier/Waterfront shops -- not a bad "new player" incentive.

(This offer will be in the form of mailed coupons redeemable anytime
during the first quarter at any AC Harrah's property -- we may not
have the mailer in hand for this weekend.) She also now has room
offers for AC in her account.

I imagine similar offers would have been extended had she booked by
phone -- either way, this really sweetens the deal.

Wow that is a good deal! We went there for the first time last Sept and
booked online (had 3 nights coming up comped for all the AC properties
and they extended us a 4th night by calling) but had NONE of those $100
offers. Did she do anything special to get them or they just sent her
an email?
We got much better bounce-back cash offers there than we ever do here
(LV or Laughlin)but being on the other side othe country we were not
able to use them :o(
have a great time over NY's!

After a number of years of AC inactivity, she booked an AC room online
(no offer in place). Just two days later the $100 offers showed up
online - the first AC offers that have appeared. A mailer with the
coupons should follow.

We reactivated her card this year with NV play. We'll play her card
the first time in AC this year this weekend to earn Diamond for next
year (800 tier RC to go).

It may be that the $100x3 offer was unrelated to her booking - just
coincidentally timed. two_card reports a similar offer just received
for S. IL, where he/she has been inactive.
