Station Casinos January Locals Mailing

Received the following coupons from
Stations Casinos for January:

$200 Free Play (5 x $40)
5x Points for Four Days
4x Points for Eight Days
8000 Bonus Points
One Hotel Room Night
4 Tickets to Comedy Club

Texas is my home casino and I played over $135,000
coin-in September 1st - November 30th.

Letter enclosed says that starting in January you may
use your Station Casino points at the Fiesta Casinos.
Visit either of the Fiesta slot clubs to do so.

Does that mean it is where you play the most? Or, that is where you obtained your station card?

The reason I ask is that I obtained my card from Green Valley. Would that lower the offers because they require more play for things? Can I earn them anywhere [points] and use them at one of the station casinos that requires less redemption points for such things as buffets?

Thanks for the guidance.

I received 5 x $30 coupons which is to be expected. After all, I only
did 129,041 at GVR in the past 90 days. I'm getting away from GVR. My
play is no longer recognized there.

And, yes, you can use your stations points at any casino. I only use
points at GVR for buffets. Buffets are the same amount of points at
GVR as they are at other Station properties. For anything else, I go
to a different Station Casino to use points. I've about had it with
GVR as it is.

It's complicated, but here it is in a nutshell:

All coin-in at all six Stations during the 90 day period ended the previous month end is used to determine the mailer.

The Station casino in which you provided the most coin-in during those 90 days is designated your "home" casino. Where you obtained your card is irrelevant.

If the home casino is not Green Valley, you'll get the maximum benefit.

If the home casino is Green Valley, you need more coin-in to get the same mailer. The exact premium is not clear, one break I know of is that it takes $75,000 to get the $60,000 mailer. At higher levels, the premium may be a smaller percentage, but it's not clear how this is calculated.

Green Valley tells its customers that only coin-in at GVR counts towards the monthly mailer. This is not true although the booth people seem honest and appear to have been told that.

Hope it helps,

B
