Subject: Re: Harrah's bad vp and cash backIf enough people do what you did, perhaps Harrah's will get the
message. They give you a free room, stay there, play elsewhere. They
give you a free meal, eat it, play elsewhere. They give you a coupon,
play it and when it is gone, play elsewhere. Eventually, you will get
no freebees from them, but remember you paid dearly for those that you
did receive.
Hey Vicky,
I have a feeling you were a long time fan or Harrahs or the Rio before Total
Rewards kicked in 20 months ago. I am sorry that you do not get the same
deals that you used to receive.
First, Harrahs has two dozen properties. The one in Laughlin has been quite
favorable in my eyes over the last sixteen months. I went Platinum in a Day
last July and Diamond in a Day in the past January. VP in Laughin/Harrahs is
playable. True, you are correct, straight-forward CB/BB sucks. But at least
for me, they have offered "Cash for Gas" on slow/non-event periods in the
calendar. I have done 5 out of 6 of these, about a 1% kickback for my coin-in over
the last sixteen months.
The Harrahs-L South tower (adult) room is by far the best standard issue room
I get offered in Laughlin. The employees/service is two notches better than
any other Laughlin casino. They even cashed in my Susan B. Anthonys and my
dimes at the Main Cage. The gal stated they do it as a service. There are just
a handful of old dollar slots left, since TITO rules in this joint.
Booking on-line at 3 am is a huge plus. No more being put on hold for
fifteen minutes, like the River Palms and other riverfront friends. Diamond
check-in and lounge are addicting. My mail box is full...of straighfoward offers
for comped rooms, plus a show, tourney or logo item
It is true that I have not played a dime in any other Harrahs property.
BS
