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.
