Hello all, so I looked at mine and my husbands offers, hes gold and we haven't played at any properties in the past year, so he has no RC's; Im platinum because of the TR Visa, and I have 14,000 RCs but once again, all from the CC. I looked at my offer, and I have the "special rates" for all 4 nights, he has 2 nights free but reg. rates so its about a $5 difference as he has resort fees. I tried to put my TR # in the companion space and it wouldnt let me reserve it under his name and in order to book to log into my account. Is that because I don't have resort fees or I am the higher level? I figured we would just book at his rate (W/O fees its a $60 savings) and then when we get in show them my platinum and get the fees waived. Any thoughts?
That's a tough one. Regardless of card status or RCs, the offers are totally dependent on past play (your ADT), that part I do know. What if you log in under your account and put your husband as the companion? Therefore still negating fees, but maybe giving his extra discount?
I tried that one too and the offers didn't change. I am thinking I am going to just call tomorrow and see what they say. Im sure they will just go with my offers... I was really hoping to just book with his & hoping someone here would know if they will still comp the room fee with my platinum when we get down there since the hotel is already booked.....
1 - Do not use offers. Use the rate calendar. 2 - Try with just our name to see what happens. 3 - Try just with his name 4 - Try with your name first, then he as a secondary. 5 - Try with his name, then you as a secondary. Pick the best deal.
I would call them and tell them you want to book his two free nights and add you as a companion to seeing you can get the other two nights at Your rate. Believe the rule is whoever's name the room is in is the tier they will use.
^This^ is my usual plan of attack when making CET reservations. I've called after I have reservations and they have been able to add any offers such as free play or gift cards and such to the confirmation #.
Alright, I did all of the tips, and for some reason when I added hubby on mine, my price went up $30....but his alone is $20 more than mine alone. Its pretty much the same total with the rate calendar. I think Im going to book mine, without his # and just add it when I get there. Even with his free nights, it was higher rates for Sat & Sunday. Hopefully most of it will get comped anyways! Thanks!
