Has anyone been checking their GGWU Points? I checked mine after a trip to Harrah's properties in Vegas last month. Unfortunately it was Planet Hollywood, which I guess is not part of the program, because no GGWU points showed up for that trip. But I did record my GGWU points balance. I just checked today & the balance is 880 points LESS than it was before. Anyone have any idea how this could happen? Have others been tracking their GGWU points? Any information is much appreciated, thanks!
Great Gift Wrap Up Points disappeared
Where do you find your GGWU points located. Have looked on Harrahs page after log in and can't find it. All I find are tier points.

According to the details of this promotion, which you can find at
http://www.greatgiftwrapup.com/greatgiftwrapup/images/2010%20GGWU%20Rules%20FINAL.pdf,
Planet Hollywood IS part of the program. You need to check with a host or a
slot club supervisor to find out why your points aren't showing up.
Also, Harrah's Laughlin IS also now part of this program, but that
information has not yet been added to the above Web site. But our play in
Laughlin has shown up in our GGWU account.
Interesting details that I hadn't known before. You earn GGWU points not only on BASE points, but on BONUS points too. "For approximately every 1 Reward Credit (Base or Bonus) you earn from your play from 12:00 midnight PST on January 1, 2010 to 6:00 p.m. PST on December 6, 2010 at the Participating Properties, you will receive approximately 1.42 Gift Points. "
Note: the above Web site gives the complete details of the program. You
have to go to https://www.harrahs.com/ggwu/points.html in order to find your
personal GGWU point balance.
Visit www.greatgiftwrapup.com to view the complete list of Gifts available.

How do big players carry their money around? I'm always nervous traveling to vegas with as much as 6k in my pocket. Do most players just use lines of credit, and pay down markers with checks?
I saw one asian guy on a flight to Vegas with a secret compartment in the heel of his dress shoe where he kept money.
Thanks

Big players normally just wire transfer the money, or obtain credit directly with the casino. Personally I wouldn't worry about 6k a it is a small amount that can easily be carried on your person.

I use a line of credit at all my "A" casinos. Very convenient, but must be treated like cash.

Thanks so much - now I get it! If only I could convince HET that they should follow their own rules & give me the points that I earned! I emailed HET through the website & they responded with misspelled words & just repeated over & over what my Great Gift Wrap Up balance was. No help at all.
