Total Rewards Card Blocked

re: comp points being "zeroed out" pursuant to a back-off:

In one case I had a nasty trespassing, and I had > $4,000

in comp points, with an array ofmerchandise to purchase.

In all of my experiences being shown the (casino) doors, my

comp' account, (if there was one), was always quickly set to

ZERO. Amusingly, when the smoke cleared, I checked on-line

perhaps 12 hrs. later I checked on-line and my points balance

was intact. I snuck back onto property and I walked away with

that $4,000 in hard comps.

A guy I know, who is more competition in a different portion of the AP world, got backed off a CET property where he had something like, $7,000 and change saved up in RC's. They wiped it out entirely and I sat there thinking to myself, that would probably piss me off more than anything else about the trespass/ban process, losing all those RC's that you could have used elsewhere.

Well, in this case it was just that they had an expired ID on file for me, which has been fixed. I have 2 months worth of total rewards trips planned.

Is it possible that nothing will happen to my TR card after being backed off? It was when me and my buddy were drinking and also splurging at pai gow lol. He told me i could continue to play pai gow

As long as you don't continue to go back and they don't catch you playing blackjack, you'll be fine. I had this problem recently, and they're not nasty about it unless you make them become nasty about it, or you get an overzealous shift-manager or something.

I had a bad experience when I tried cashing in some chips that weren't mine on my card, and got trespassed buy some overzealous shift-manager but then got that purged after I wrote a pleading email to a bunch of CEO email addresses, and my card is now in good standing.

More to the point, just play ball with them when using the card anyway, abide by their rules (Especially in vegas where they can be terribly nasty) and you won't have to worry about your comps being zeroed out or any problems with your comp card.

Its entirely possible that nothing will happen, listen, most people are on a three strike rule so to speak, and so long as you aren't doing anything heinous, you generally won't get much past your first strike. I mentioned being indefinitely trespassed earlier myself, and I was able to retain everything including mailers, so much so that I used my card level to my advantage all over the midwest and south at a specific property, receiving free rooms, buffets, etc, without a hitch.

I don't think you'll have anything to worry about, and if it came down to an Expired ID on file, while I don't believe that completely, it certainly could have been the case.

I think that i do believe the ID thing because when i went to sit at baccarat, before this problem, i was asked for ID after she swiped my players card because she said something about my ID not being updated in their system...
