New BConnected

I talked today with my Host, Luis, the head Host

at Gold Coast. I had emailed him my observations as

voiced on this forum and specifically asked if the

tightening by Boyd of the BConnected program

flowed over into the Host department or are

they still able to function with the same discretion

they’ve had in recent times.

I expected an email back but I was surprised to get

a personal call from Luis and he explained that the

host department has not been affected in any way.

I explained my concerns about the changes in the

card system and he talked in a unusually defensive

but concerned manner. He wanted me to understand

that my comps from his department would not be affected

and the the cuts in the BConnected system were

to offset the new “generous” benefits that are available

to the members (cruise, etc.) as well as multiplier

points and other offers. I did not choose to argue with

him over those comments. I told him many of us

are hoping with time that the realization will be that

Boyd will understand that the cuts were way too

drastic and decide to modify them. Personally I could

do without the cruise perk and put those costs back

into the program.

I’m planning a trip in Oct. and I’ll experience firsthand

both the card program as well as the host comps.

I almost always get room and meals comped for both

me and my sister. We play 10 hours of VP a day for

3 days, my sister mostly nickles and quarters and I

quarter and .50, single line and multi line deuces but

considering BP instead because of the changes.

Just thought I’d share my timely experience.

Interesting, because I ask my host at Gold Coast about comp and she said she could do nothing now except up to a% of my actual loss. No loss, no discrec. comp. She did offer $20 toward a food comp but that was it. Being Emerald for several years meant nothing.
