Casino comps?

[Paulras]

Anyone ever get comps applied to your final on board account from the casino? I'm part of the Blue Chip club and on the last night of our Equinox cruise from 2 weeks ago where I played quite a bit, I asked the casino host if they give comps for the restaurants or spa services. He said Yes and I just have to ask so I did. He went and talked to the casino manager and came back and said that "he took care of me and was putting something through". But my final bill never changed and my credit card was charged for the exact amount of the final bill. So they obviously didn't put anything through or forgot to do it.

 

I email the Blue Chip club and they said they couldn't do anything after leaving the ship but they'd take it into account when I book my next cruise.

 

Just curious if anyone has ever gotten credits applied to your final onboard account based on the play from that cruise? I would have been happy with taking off one or two specialty restaurants. Wondering if people have gotten that or alot more?

In my experience you won't see a credit, rather they will remove the charge directly from your account - the only charges I have ever had removed were specialty restaurants and internet packages.

Hmmm. The only charge I don't see on the final bill is some laundry pressing from day 1 but I noticed all through the cruise that it never got charged so I doubt that small charge was the one that the casino took off. Never questioned why I wasn't charged since they melted buttons on several dress shirts so I would have complained anyway that they owed me.

 

I booked another cruise for December so let's see what they come back with for perks on that cruise. Still annoying that they said they took care of me but didn't.

I've been with friends who had the casino comp them specialty dining but not actually remove a charge, instead hey made a reservation for them (they said they had a 3rd friend, ME! with them, so he comped me too... :D )

 

Arrived to Qsine, and never saw a bill.

I'm always looked after really well un the casinos. When they comp the speciality restaurants it always includes wine of my choice and any guests I have with me. Have never seen a bill for these. Also check with Bluechip office as you should have a cash rebate due from your play. This can be used towards paying for another cruise or receive cash on next cruise. I will be sailing on 17 night Asia on Millie In April and have $3800 waiting to collect. Woohoo. Also looking forward to seeing next years comped sailings.

Wow - that's really good. I got $425 on the last cruise which I was pretty happy with. Waiting to hear what I get for the upcoming one. For restaurants and spa, do you ask the casino to make the reservations for you or do you make them directly and let the casino know that you have them?

We play in the Casino on most of our cruises. We have never been offered a thing. We go to Vegas 3 times a year and are comped a suite and food and beverage. How much money do you have to play to be comped ?

I tend to play blackjack 2 or 3 hours per night with $100-150 average hands

Got an email that my incentive for the next cruise is $425 which is exactly the same as the last cruise. I was expecting more based on my play and not getting comped on the ship.

You must be the guy I saw on my recent cruise that bought in for $500 at the BJ table, then 10 minutes later was at the cashier's cage getting another 2K on your seapass card. ;), add another $100 for the 5%.

 

Meanwhile I was cashing in my measly $50 win.

Nope - I usually bring cash but if I want more instead of running to my room to get it out of the safe, I'll take out a few hundred at the BJ table WITHOUT a fee. Blue Chip players don't get hit with the fee. When my bankroll in the safe is big, I bring some down to guest services to pay down my bill.

 

I have seen guys sit down and take out $3+ thousand at the tables, bet like crazy and lose it all in 10 minutes and take out more. I usually start at $25 or $50 hands and when I start winning, bump my bets up. Best run I had last month was starting at $50 and every time I won, I'd increase my bet by $50. Won 9 hands in a row (ie. last bet won was $450). Lost, dropped my bet back down and left a few hands later with a couple thousand in profit which lasted me the rest of the trip.
