It is nice having a Diamond card but it isn’t the only way to get good comps. I have been gold/Platinum and Diamond with all 3 I have been givin good comps althou the Diamond and Platinum were a little nicer..lol.. I got Diamond in a day at Imperial Palace on New Years Eve 2009 and it was good till March 2011 so it was well worth the time and money I played. The offers were great following this and I believe for a few months the Money was around $500 or so and was getting atleast 3 to 4 offers a week for free rooms/food/ enteries and so on. It was nice but overwhelming. I still think that Harrahs/Caesars Total Rewards is by far the best comps in Vegas and I wouldnt play any place else…

Well, thank you for saying that. People seem to forget that there was a time when loyalty programs didn’t exist at all. Getting perks for your play is pretty sweet.

Thanks for your comment! Actually, the house always has the edge. Loyalty programs do provide some value for one’s gambling dollars, however.

Let’s face it, they are not building $300,000,000 casino for you to win. You keep betting and spinning the wheels and then put in another $100. They have cut down on comps and watch the smallest bet to get an edge.

A couple points about Diamond levels the new listings on the TR site are awful as they don’t state anything. At least in the past there were specific listings per properties, which was beneficial. If the new corporate process is to not list them, so they can slowly pull them away then let me go on record as saying it’s a bad one. There isn’t much point in ‘chasing’ a status that doesn’t describe it’s benefits, what’s there now doesn’t really offer any incentive for a player to get much beyond platinum, as the benefits listed are marginal at best.

I understand this isn’t a POV question or issue, but as you’ve advised in the comments, others do read this and hopefully they’ll take the feedback. I’ve also sent the feedback through the site email.

I made Diamond In July and could have sworn they said it was good until March 2014. I think I even asked about it in August because my card say March 2013. Anyhow, I have never been charged any comp dollars for any of the diamond lounges in Vegas.

Thanks for clarifying that, Dean. These large numbers being cited don’t take any wins into account.
