EW/CB freeplay from pts

#1

Dennis - If you downloaded the extra $19 in freeplay,
that is an OPTION in lieu of 'cashback'.
I personally like cashing in at the end of a trip or two,
so as to take a little 'rebate' home, but by using the technology,
they are smarter to let you convert your pts into freeplay...
Just FYI...........
BTW - I had same offers.
Now, though, my SUMMER mailer (June-July-Aug),
shows only up to 5 free nights, but only $30 freeplay upon first visit. This is quite diminished, considering my recent play there. I think marketing offers based on play is still in experimental stages.......(ie. recent MAY VIP promotion).

If that is correct, it doesn't seem to be worth doing on the fullpays?

Can You just play the normal $4/3 points? It mention something about
activation required?

I picked up the ACCESS brochure from our room. It says every 500 points
earned is worth $1.00. Redeem your points for Cash Back or Free Play.
In addition to points, you also earn Comp Dollars redeemable for free
meals, rooms, gift shop items and Gas Cards. It also mentions of
getting 1 point for every $0.67 of slot play and $1.34 on VP games.

Does 750 points still get the $1 in the Comp Dollar account?

There are three card levels: Red, Gold, and Crystal of increasing benefits.

On the offer that we just used, I got $50 of Free Play and $15 of food
credit. Somehow, I had $19 of Free Play in my account (don't know how I
had that? Just got our pin numbers on this trip) so I got to play $69
worth. I was surprised that instead of adding the $15 to my food
credit, they gave me a $15 voucher for Coco's restaurant.
They would not split the $50 in Free Play between mine and my wife's
account.

I think it means it takes $40 instead of $4 for pts on 100% vp only,
during those days. And instead of 3 pts, you get 1 pt?

The other games at $2 for 3 pts is much better deal then,
with the multiplied cashback...
(assuming it is run the same as how they did a few months ago.
It was in set tier amounts...
i.e. - earn 1000 pts, gets 2x bonus,
3000 pts gets 4x, 6000 = 6x
10000 pts = 10x
where that would be the maximum bonus amt possible....
(or 1.5% on the non-100% games).

After we checked into our room, we went to the players club to redeem
the $50 + $15 in food comps from the offer coupon before any play. They
said that I had $19 in Free Play then added the $50. This did not
affect my point balance. I started with 48,000+ points and ended the
trip with 58,000+ points. Also put some points on my wife's card too.
So did not redeem any points for Free Play. They also kept the coupon,
so do not know how you would use it multiple times?

I haven't been getting any offers from them lately. They are now in my
wife's name! On my wife's calendar offer, every night is marked free
including the 4th of July. Also the coupon says: "Take advantage of
your free stays / Up to Four Times each Month!" Then there is a Offer
Code number for each of the 3 months. She gets $50 of Free Play on
first visit in June, July, and August. No extra food comp though.

I should also add that there must be a 2 night break between EW
reservations.
So I guess we could fill the 2 night breaks with our RP offers since we
each get 2 X 2 free nights there each month too. Then we could live in
Laughlin for three summer months. :slight_smile:
