Station's 5X points

#1

This is a really good question. My understanding of Stations multipoint days
is you must have them specified on your monthly mailed calendar, which is
only sent to locals. You can activate them at the slot club, or at a kiosk.

However, I also understand that out-of-towners CAN get Fiesta 5X points on
Fridays, just by going to the slot club and asking for them. Since Stations
owns the Fiestas, this is a strange inconsistency to me.

BTW, Stations multipoints don't show up while you are playing. The point
adjustment is made sometime after your play day is over, sometimes it takes a
day or two.

And here is another question. If I activate a multipoint day at, say Red
Rock, and then later that same day go and play at Palace Station, will I get the
multipoints at BOTH properties, or just at Red Rock?

Staying at Red Rock, the boothlings are clueless, they say you have to
have received an offer in the mail and to scan the kiosk. When we
scan, it says no offers available. Will the extra points show up
later? As of now, only recieving normal points. Thanks, RW

It has been my experience that the activation is only good at the
casino you activiated at.

Brian, pretty much all holidays are 5x points at Stations or Fiesta
for everyone, although surprisingly, Fiesta didn't run a 5x promo today.

The better policy is to check the kiosk first, then ask the booth if
you have questions. The boothlings can't help you if they don't know
what you're looking for. Particularly speaking, pretty much all the
Stations and Fiesta boothlings have been nothing but friendly and
helpful.

I think you are correct. I did not receive a July mailer by June 30,
so I went to the Red Rock Rewards Center and was informed there was
some delay from their outside vendor that handled the mailings. So
they swiped my card and I heard them say I was "level 8", then they
printed off a calendar with all the various Freeplay and Point
Multiplier days. I got the impression that different "levels"
receive different offers.

As a sidenote, as of 7/4, I still haven't recieved the mailed
Calendar.

I am a non-local who has stayed/played at the Fiestas several times.
I don't get a calendar but I do receive a mailer with coupons every
couple of months. The coupons are for FP, matchplay, 3X points,
free buffet etc.

I have never been able to receive my FP or 3X points, by swiping my
card at a kiosk. I was told by a boothling that, because I am not a
local, I must have the FP and 3X points activated at the booth, the
morning of the play. I have also received the 5X points on Friday
in the same manner.

The 3 & 5X points are always apparent on the card the next morning,
after play. It has never been a problem for me, to receive the
correct number of points.

When I inquired about receiving the extra points at Texas Station, I
was informed that the X times points was only available at the
casino at which the offer was activated.
