Seven Stars Insider
Here is the new Seven Stars Insider newsletter for October and November. This is a great source of information if you’re curious about the Harrah’s Total Rewards program. It was started for the highest level gamblers (Seven Stars), but provides information that can be used for any level of player.
[NOTE: While this newsletter was originally designed exclusively for Seven Stars Club members, there is useful for anyone who has a Total Rewards® player’s card and/or plays/stays at a Harrah’s property. Please feel free to pass this on to your friends.]
Question Of The Month
I heard that, as long as I confirm my travel plans on or before March 31, 2010, I can take my 2009-2010 Seven Stars trip after April 1, 2010. Is this true? This used to be the policy, but it changed a couple years ago. Now, it’s “use it or lose it” if you don’t complete your travel by March 31, 2010.
Do You Plan To “Renew” Your Seven Stars Status For 2010-2011?
According to our September informal survey, “if it happens, it happens.” No one responding was actually working toward qualification, but if their play happens to get them to that level – or closer to the end of the year, if it appears to be possible, they might even increase their play just to maintain their status. Nearly everyone who responded – especially “first-timers” – said that the benefits simply don’t justify the amount of money or time required to qualify. Some came right out and said they would switch to another casino’s “VIP” status because they were disappointed in how they had been treated, and the benefits they received – or, more accurately, didn’t receive.
Special Seven Stars Self-Parking Benefits In Atlantic City
If you self-park at Caesars in Atlantic City, there is special Seven Stars dedicated parking on the seventh floor. Be prepared to insert your card in order to access the area. [Caesars Windsor has a similar dedicated parking area.] Upon departure, each of the Harrah’s-owned properties – except Showboat, where you show your player’s card upon entry – has a special Seven Stars (and Diamond) express lane when you leave the self-parking lot.
