FAQs (answers to some of your common questions)
NOTE: These are not "official" answers. Please consult a host or use the "Contact Us" feature on the Caesars Rewards website under FAQs.
Annual Gift
How do I claim my annual Seven Stars gift? There no longer is an annual gift. In 2015 it was "replaced" with a gift (Galaxy Tablet) given out at whichever casino's Seven Stars renewal event you were invited to. This practice continues.
Diamond Celebration Dinner
I've already earned 150,000 tier credits this year so I am Seven Stars through January 31 of the year after next but my host tells me I don't get the $100 Diamond dinner. Is this really the case? There are two different answers to this question depending on when you first made Seven Stars. Like Seven Stars benefits, most Diamond benefits are earned one year and available to you the next, but others are not.
Answer 1 - If you went into the current calendar year as a Seven Stars cardholder, once you've earned 15,000 or more tier credits in the current calendar year, you can't claim a $100 dinner until Feb. 1 of the following year – but that's only if you don't earn at least 150,000 tier credits by the end of the current calendar year. [This means you revert to Diamond status for the following "program year" (Feb. 1 through Jan. 31).] If you earn 150,000 or more tier credits by the end of the current year, you'll get the $500 dinner (actually five $100 certificates), good anytime during the following program year (Feb. 1 through Jan. 31).
Answer 2 - If you went into the current calendar year as a Diamond cardholder – based on your play the previous calendar year – then, yes, you get a $100 dinner beginning Feb. 1 of the following program year (Feb. 1 through Jan. 31), but, as outlined above, if you began the current calendar year as a Seven Stars cardholder, then you cannot.
Atlantis Trip
Can I combine my Annual Retreat benefits with the Atlantis offer? No, you're on your own to get to the Bahamas and Atlantis. The retreat must be taken to a city where there is a Caesars Rewards casino.
Companion Card
Does the Companion cardholder get Resort Fees waived? Only if your companion has his/her own Diamond card. The Resort Fee waiver is based on the tier status of the person in whose name the room is booked.
Can Companion cardholders get an upgraded hotel room when they are not with their Seven Stars cardholder? How about a free room without their Seven Stars cardholder? Upgrades and free rooms are available to Companion cardholders based on their own status and play. The Companion card simply gets someone to the head of the line for check-in, giveaways, restaurant admission, Laurel/Seven Stars Lounge admission, etc.
'Home Casino'
Harrah's Philadelphia is the Caesars property closest to my home and the property I visit most frequently. However, by far, the bulk of my play is at Harrah's New Orleans. I made one trip to New Orleans last year and earned about 75,000 tier credits (including bonuses). I've also made 10 to 12 trips to Harrah's Philadelphia last year, but only earned about 4,000 tier credits. This is the sentence from the Seven Stars Rules & Regulations that gives me pause: "Retreat must be taken outside of the region where the Seven Stars guest plays most." I want to use my Seven Stars Annual Retreat to return to New Orleans, but I'm not sure if I play "most" there or Philadelphia. What's your take on this? "Where you play most" is defined by Caesars Rewards as the casino you visit most – not where you spend the most money or earn the most tier credits. I'm in a similar situation. One person I know lives 15 minutes from Harrah's Philadelphia. Because they're always sending him free play offers, gift offers, etc., "technically" he visits that casino most, but drops most of his money in Atlantic City. I know of other similar situations – one of which is someone who lives very close to Harrah's Cherokee, but rarely visits there. Instead she takes a lot of junkets to Atlantic City as a "free" way to visit her sister who lives in New Jersey. Consequently, she is coded to Atlantic City.
Resort Fees
Does the Companion cardholder get Resort Fees waived? Only if your companion has his/her own Diamond card. The Resort Fee waiver is based on the tier status of the person in whose name the room is booked.
Signature Events
Can you attend the Signature Event in the city that’s also your “home casino”? Yes, that "home casino" restriction applies only to your Annual Retreat. (In 2020, the Signature Event in Lake Tahoe was limited to cardholders who earned at least 500,000 tier credits in 2019, or earn 500,000 prior to the Event in 2020, but it has been canceled.)
Can you attend more than one Signature Event? No, not usually, but in 2020 that rule has been temporarily changed.
