Ok thanks.



Fingers crossed


The first founders email said I was in the queue to be upgraded by july 26th which is 20 days after redeeming benefit.. And the csr's via email said they cannot expedite the process since totalrewards has to manually upgrade each name... according to them. We shall see. I will post when I get it.

Access to Atlantic City Diamond Lounges?

I have accessed the diamond lounges in Vegas with my Diamond Card before with no issues. I have read that for Atlantic City, they charge you total rewards credits to access the diamond lounges. I was wondering if anyone has any experiences accessing the diamond lounges in AC and if you were in fact charged to access.

Removing resort fees at checkout, does that mean I still get my internet/wifi in room access during my stay?

If you have less than 25,000 tier credit, there is a charge of 1,000 reward credit ($10) to access the diamond lounges. Please note that they do not accept cash or credit card, so if you don't have the RC, you will be denied entry.

It's either $100 AMEX GiftCard + $95 initiation fee
or waiver of $95 initiation fee.

Just posting my update for everyone.

Applied for Diamond benefit on July 6th 9am est
Got Diamond upgraded today July 28th 4pm EST

1 day before the expected date that they initially gave me via email.


I have 2 question about Diamond

Do I get the 100dollar meal as of today?
or is that something that I get after 1 year?


What happens when status resets Jan 2017? Does foundercard contact totalrewards to enable our diamond status again?



Thanks in advance.

yes you can go get the $100 now at any total rewards desk. regarding renewal, assuming founderscard and CET renew their agreement your status will be extended until jan 2018. if not you will be bumped back down to gold.

Just joined, Going to Vegas for my birthday!

I have been a CET total rewards member for a while, gold level play @ platinum via TR Visa, I get comped rooms usually on weekdays. a few years ago there were no resort fees but now I am looking at $25 a night and I like to stay for a week when I go, that is significant over a week!


With my diamond card now there is no resort fees! YAY!


Here is my referral code if anyone is interested: FCDANNY443

Greetings, I have a trip to Vegas coming up in November. Looking to acquire the Founders Card. I have used a number of referral codes, but not getting any discounted rate. I think it may be because all codes expire at end of July or am I doing something wrong.

Thanks in Advance!

Is there a list somewhere of non-Vegas restaurants where we can redeem our Diamond-appreciation dinner? I'm going to be at the HORSESHOE SOUTHERN INDIANA later this month and want to know if I can take the dinner there.

https://totalrewards.custhelp.com/ap...bration-dinner

I'm mildly surprised by the colloquial phrasing of this FAQ answer:

The Celebration Dinner can be redeemed at any Caesars Entertainment owned restaurant. To take advantage of this benefit, simply visit any Total Rewards Center with valid ID and a representative will be happy to assist you with the $100 dining voucher.

A list of Caesars Entertainment owned restaurants would be on our website, basically anything that has a check for Quick Rewards
anyway a link from there takes you to

https://www.totalrewards.com/content...-location.html

the list of Horseshoe Southern Indiana locations is on page 5.
