The answer to your query contained in your second paragraph can be found in your first paragraph. I’m certain they have “figured out how to do this” but have yet to implement the change. Pax using the casino as an ATM are sure to hasten implementation of this change. 2 thoughts: 1. Op has only 50 OBC so I doubt that it is "extra." Any idea how fast that'll go? $14.99 to activate OCEAN NOW then I (and think many others) can blow thru $35 in a day or 2. Lunch at casual dining? Now $30+ gone ..... 2. I have been blocked in the casino so can attest 1st hand knowledge that they are capable of blocking users. (My error was loading, running, then cashing out a slot pull w/o notifying them that that's what I was doing. Took floor mgr to get me back in .... now I always notify them 1st) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess I see the connection but it's pretty thin. Definitely longer poles in the tent incentivizing the cruise lines to segregate Casino charges and OBC than this.
