VIP Programs

**me_and_ed** · 3rd January 2012, 02:15 AM

This question is purely driven from my curiousity, especially tweaked by the previous conversations about Club Rouge.

How many players here have been invited to true VIP programs, either through play or association with casino's/casino reps? I have played for many years on line, I have recently been invited to VIP Lounge (Jackpot Factory NOT Chris D'Angelo or Virtual), as well the highest level I have been at 3Dice is Gold*. I dep between 3-5K mth at a few different casino's.

I appreciate all input, thanks.

I am not a VIP at any casino myself

But for you guys who are a part of a "true" VIP program, it would be interesting to know if some of you are rewarded with other things than "just" cashbacks / bonuses. I mean things like concert tickets, a nice dinner etc.

Great question, I know with my invite to VIP Lounge I had to answer a fairly lengthy questionnaire asking about all my favorite things, food, drinks, restaurant, dream vacation etc.....

Now we will wait to see what may show up

Since I've been playing online I've received in the mail 2 sort of credit card looking things from 2 different casinos - both say they're VIP club cards but I've never gotten any kind of percs or anything besides the cards.

So I use them to break into my neighbor's house and steal his groceries!

I get "VIP" emails from the Rushmore Group (mainly because I was winning some money in the tourneys and would blow it all knowing i would take months to get paid) but, in my case anyway, I think VIP stands for Very Impatient Player as I'm going on week 5 for a withdrawal. They also won't let me play in any more tourneys

. I do get emails from Megan Ross (Jessica Rose probably got tired of me) telling me they are working VERY hard to get caught up

I figure in the Spring, never or when pigs fly

I am a member of club rouge at 32Red and really all it means, as far as I can see that I get a higher deposit bonus. My birthday (on the 28th of December) they gave me a 100% bonus deposit up to 500 which was nice, but was also kind of disappointing....I had expected at least some sort of freebie and would have rather had that lol. You get better rubies (comps) and I think access to the occasional perk tourney and usually once a month I get a freebie. But really don't see anything much different than I did before. I'd questioned here the ins and outs of how one becomes a member and was invited by 32Red only after me posting.

3Dice you become vip by depositing and playing..no real invitation you become by regular deposits/wagering. Which to me is logical and they have nice ND etc the higher you get. I got to Gold and enjoyed the perks there.

I was only invited once my whole "career" and that was by Vegas7...same thing higher deposit bonus and occasional freebie thrown at me.

I seem to recall someone mentioning that it's worth it to be a VIP at the Palace Group, because then you can have your withdrawals flushed. Non-VIPs have 48 hour pending and no flushing. I'm not sure if that's still the case or not though - maybe someone who's a VIP can answer that.

I know that a couple of the perks with VIP Lounge is I get half w/r on bonus, so normal M/G 30x, I get 15 as well double the comps.

They banned you from the tourneys?

Surely its just a matter of luck...??

Sweet!

That reminds me, with most Playtech casinos, the higher up the member ladder you climb the less comps per $ to cash out - for instance when you start out it's something like 100 comps for a dollar, then it's 95 for a dollar, etc. I don't play at Playtech that often, the highest I've ever made it is 85/$1 so I don't know how low it goes.
