I recently stayed at the Gold Coast, on their "out of town" offer. It was not the most generous, but better than nothing. $15 in free play, 3 nights comped, and a $30 food credit for food charged to the room. I asked the slot club exactly what the $30 food credit in the offer meant, and they gave me a very bizarre answer - "oh, that's only if you use room service @!". Anyway, Since I earned about $250 in comps while there, I paid for all the food our party ate ( which was reasonably priced compared to strip places ) with points, and cashed out with $150. So when I was set to video check out, I expected a charge of $0.00 since no food and comped up front rooms. Lo, and behold I see I owe them $30!!! I called the front desk ( this was 6 AM ) and they told me, I MUST give them that coupon that came with the offer on checkout, to take the $30 charge off my bill ! I explained that I had not used that coupon at all, in any way,shape or form, and paid for all my meals with comp dollars ( which did go off my account 10 minutes after using them ). He told me, that he had to follow orders, "no cardboard ticket, no deduction". Luckily , I found the coupon in the garbage that I had thrown out the night before, and when I surrendered it at the front desk, The total went back down to zero. I guess food is not really free at the GC !

My husband asked at the change booth today and was told it was 42,000 points
for the A mailer, 60,000 for A+. Yet a few days ago a different person told
me in no uncertain terms it was $42,000 (dollars) per month for A mailer.
All very odd, and I'm not sure how to check. I am writing a letter.
