It's not on the TR account page, it's buried in every email I receive from CET regarding a promotion. Reading the various LV forums, it seems to be going out to everyone. Check the Vegas Message Board for a discussion.
My next trip to LAS isn't until June, but I could make a day trip or an overnite to Windsor with only a little advance planning.

Yeah, but it benefits everybody, especially gamblers. It'll take half the effort to do DIAD. Heck, even Platinum can be had for a penny or two. One selfish thing I hope happens between the Quest and this promo: reducing the amount of parking fee complaints. Little excuse to not at least be Platinum, unless of course you have no trips planned til April.

No Diamond Status This Morning
I checked my Total Rewards account this morning and I was dropped back to Gold status. I called Founderscard and they said that they had to call Total Rewards this morning because they were told that there would not be a lapse in status. They were waiting for a response and they would email me when they got an answer. I got an email from Founderscard that stated the upgrade should be completed by the end of business today.

To repeat what I've said elsewhere, I was at a property today and nothing has been updated. I asked for a new card and got a Diamond with a 1/2018 expiration. On the Total Touch screen it showed nothing, but I had the Diamond background. And it's not just FC cardholders, but tier matches as well. Who knows who else?

New way to make Diamond
Got an e-mail from CET yesterday. Sign up for TR Visa (odd since I already have the card), put 5,000 on it in 90 days and auto Diamond. So now we have a zero cost way to make Diamond. It does look like they want everyone chasing Diamond. No wonder they put in the entry fee for Diamond lounge, it's a pure money maker for CET properties. Either you gamble to get there or you pay the fee. Win-win for CET.

That's going to probably be tough, especially getting approved and requesting the status in time.

Hello all,
I just found out about the Founders Card on Friday (February 3rd, 2018) and applied. Was approved on Monday (February 5th, 2018)...and immediately requested the Caesars Diamond status perk.
I will post how long it takes for me to receive the status...just in case it helps someone else.
Going to Vegas at the end of March 2018.
(wish I had known about this before getting the Mlife credit card...I could have been tier-matched to Mlife Gold without it).

The request for the TR Diamond status stated 3-weeks in the description...but then stated 2-weeks once I submitted the request. So 2-3 weeks, not sure if anyone has received the status sooner?

I've said it a couple of times, but I don't like to say it anymore because it can set very unrealistic expectations. That being said, let's just say I was approved for FC and submitted my request right before they sent up the info to CET. Swift. Otherwise, err on the side of caution.
