    We're going to Horseshoe So. Indiana this weekend for 3 comped nights, $130 FP, and our host down there just added another $100 food to our reservation. We're low diamond achievers and we are mainly concerned about getting free rooms.
    Not sure why your host didn't offer at least a food comp.
    A food comp here or there would be nice. Maybe it does have to do something with AC being my home casino?

I have 950.00 FP, limo ride, airfare, suite, Gordon Ramsey and told us to put all our F&B on our room and he will take care of it. Last trip I had 2 2500 tc's days and one 500. He also know I double booked the GN for Friday & Saturday because I have FP there. Probably only stay Friday and may have some customers come in Saturday night to take the GN room.
    I was told that the CET properties are separate from what you are offered. Maybe Harrah’s is more generous than Caesar’s?

Really give us free room and we be happy camper.
    I’m more upset that I can’t cover the cost of dinner when we stay overnight because it is so hard to accumulate reward credits unless you can go on a multiplier day.

And one time a host came up to Allen and introduced himself, and gave him a $100 food credit.

    I believe each property has their advantages. I guess with us is their locations throughout the country where we can get rooms.

    I feel like those multiplier days are always when we can’t make it there I wanted to give them play because they have so many locations throughout the country but we probably can’t start taking full advantage of that for a few more years.

I do think the freeplay is lower than comparable play at others CET casinos
    I would be happy with a food credit but really, if I earn 1,000 tier that is comparable to earning 50 comp dollars at Borgata and at CET all that gives me is $10 RC?

I have been considering switching over to CET next year when we may be in a better position to travel so that we can participate in the quests and hopefully earn a better status for access to room nights in different areas of the country. I guess I never really considered the lack of FB credits and FP offers. Always thought that was just something that didn't come up as a question in discussion. Access to rooms, as well as access to the DL's, is really all I'm interested in, or so I thought, but now the lack of good FP and FB credits has me puzzled too. So, isn't that what you use the RC's for, food and beverage? I just love Borgata and, silly as it sounds, it is a tough decision for me to switch loyalty to CET because I'm really not interested in any of their AC properties and that's the market we are closest too. Ugh .... more stuff to think about.

    We were in a Fiore Suite at the B at the beginning of May for 2 nights and it was so nice to be able to get that for a change. We have 2 nights booked in the WC in a few weeks and I love staying in the WC as well. On that Sunday there is the Mystery Slot Dollars (spin to win a minimum $100, maximum $1000), Monday is the Bingo (haven't played that in awhile and Bob and I both enjoy that), then Tuesday before we leave, there is more FP, plus they now sent me birthday FP, something that never happened prior to MLife. I don't get weekend rooms (though they've dropped a couple of Friday nights in recently) and I'll never get into Amphora at the rate I play, but I do earn points to use in restaurants, etc. The property (my opinion only of course) is beautiful; I feel good when I'm there and feel safe as well with the clientele and security (because DH is rarely on the slots floor with me).

    I guess I'll wait for the fall promos to come out and see if it will be feasible for me to jump on the CET bandwagon. Thanks for this thread, BB. I'm shocked that at the play you have given them recently, you haven't gotten more out of it.
    I certainly don’t want to discourage you trying CET, especially since you want to take advantage of the travel benefits. Others love CET that’s why I asked, maybe I’m doing wrong?

    But they don’t have anything like Borgata does with mystery FP days and SD. I also feel like their return RC expire quickly, so when I earned 2600 TC at the end of Feb and could not get to Caesar’s by the end of April, I lost those RC.

    As far as being able to earn Gold with Mlife, if you go to Vegas you accrue tier points much faster there than at Borgata but you get less comp dollars, probably because in LV they will come your food at the end based on your play. I earned almost 90,000 tier points in LV and did not play the entire trip at Mlife.

    As for the DL’s, they are ok, not Amphora but as far as AC goes, I like the Chairmen Club at GN just as well as Caesar’s DL.

    Mine aren't large but I get $5-20 FP offers several times a month at Caesars and Ballys and more at Harrahs (although not comparable to Borgata or GN). Seems strange that you're not getting any!

    And the omg way to accrue enough comps for meals really is to take advantage of the multiplier days. Otherwise it accrues crazy slow at CET!

    Here’s part of the problem, when the Caesar’s host reached out to me in January, I asked if she could switch my home casino from Harrah’s Philadelphia to Caesar’s and she said she couldn’t, that it is based on the amount of times you play at a certain CET casino. In the past 6 months I have went to Harrah’s Philly, once and have been to Caesar’s at least 8 times and my FP offers still come from Harrah’s Philly. They are $25 and I get offered 2500 RC, so that was the main reason I was even going there, to accumulate RC being offered. But all this time playing at Caesar’s and I get nothing from them.

When we went in November to the Borgata, we had $460 at Harrah's from our September trip, and you know we do not play big. We even had around $50 at Caesars and $25 at Bally's from minimal play. You should be getting something. It wouldn't hurt to talk to someone.

    You are funny, you and Allen play the same as I do or maybe Allen does. You received $460 in RC? What was the multiplier you received? I guess I have to make sure to get there on multiplier days.

    Ill make an observation on this thread due to the lack of any hard data . id say places like A/C and L/V are not going to do as much for there TR members as say Caesar's lo-cals a bit more OFF the beaten path like hummmm ...KC , Laughlin or other locations across the Midwest not located near large metro areas or convenient Airports . KC is an exception to that logic cuz it does have both a metro area and an large airport but what is don't have is a large draw on folks heading some where to gamble (maybe its cuz they charge for drinks lol) who knows how the big wigs at cet central got this figured . one thing is for sure the more $$$ cet gives us in forms of comps has to come from some where and my guess is thats your wallet via the slots .

    I agree that you should ask someone why you aren't getting FP offers from them. Getting offers from Philly shouldn't keep you from getting offers from AC. Once I played at AC they started sending me FP calendars while at the same time I was also getting calendars from other CET locations.

    As for food upfront, aside from free buffets I have rarely gotten these offers even in LV. I get it comped off the backend or I ask a host for a comp skip. I can't speak on AC in this regard as we just made small purchases and used my Dhs RCs that were about to expire. I would have assumed they'd have a host desk where you could ask for comps based on play - is that not the case?
