My reliable source says that there is another delay in joining the Binion's and Four Queens players clubs. November is now the target.
And also the August offers should be appearing very soon. But if you're on site anyone at the players club can look up your account and tell you the August and September bounceback free play amounts.
Binion's Spin-Splosion daily promotion has been reduced to three machines. They are against the wall to the right of the players club.
I can confirm first week of November is the target date and ongoing IT issues are the blame.
More details I gathered this weekend
*All Access is the proposed new club name
*No promotion in August or September for bonus freeplay with added action. Also no monthly gift
*Mailer food value increased slightly for August/September.
October mailer should have some type of added promotion but they weren't aware of details.
Looks like my source was mostly correct.
It now appears that each month it will require going to the slot club to activate the free play.
For those that played at both Binions and Four Queens each month it looks like your offers are now cut in half since one offer will cover both properties.
*UPDATE: Combined mailer will likely not start until January*
No word on if there has been a change to the point thresholds to receive the various mailer levels. Also no word on if there is a change to cashback and comp earn rate.
Overall it appears this is a very negative change. I can't say I'm surprised. It was a very nice run for the sharp players while it lasted.
manny - I have just received a mailer from the 4 Queens stating that my free room offers are for either the 4 Queens or for the Hotel Apache - the same as my offers have always been in the past. It also states that one should come to the 4 Queens club and receive a new card that be used by both casinos.
Post deleted as info was incorrect
Mannydogpro - I'm a little confused.
I received both the 4Q & Binions mailers. They are both for November and December. The 4Q mailer states -
"You will receive $xxx in free slot play each month. You will also receive $xxx in comp dollars, one time only. You can use your free slot play and comp dollars at either property. (Because of the new system, you must go to the Royal Players Club each month to receive the free slot play.)"
The Binions mailer is identical (except you need to go to Club Binions to get the free play).
In my case the dollar amounts of free play are different for each casino. It looks like I will get the free play at BOTH casinos, with the option of playing off the free play at either casino.

The important detail is the freeplay is ONLY at ONE property; not both. This is NOT the same as it's always been in the past.
So, for example, if you were receiving Diamond level mailers (offer code FNDD2) at both QQQQ and Bins of $400 per month in the past that's $800. Now you'll have to select which property you'd like to redeem and it'll just be $400 TOTAL instead of $800.
And the proposed new club name is "All Access"??? Nice oxymoron.

Take them and run, while they last. No doubt things are in a pretty mixed-up state right now.

Well I'm happy to report that the initial info I received was NOT correct.
I spoke to another contact person and if you received a mailer for each location the free play offers are as they've been in the past. In other words, if you received a QQQQ $400 and Binions $400 then it'll be $800 total. The only change for Nov and Dec is you can choose to redeem at the location of choice. Can take $400 at each or $800 at one.
The person stated this is how it would work in November and December though in January it might just be one mailer for both properties. This presents some other intersting questions regarding maintaining daily theo, and the required levels, but I'm not putting that info out here on a public forum.
My apologies on the confusion.
I booked an offer for December via phone. I asked them what my offer was. They told me to pick up a new card when I arrive. They gave me 1 night at 25 percent off and then two nights free. I took Friday and Saturday as my free nights and upgraded to a king premium room.
Not sure what the free slot play component was but I suspect $20 as that is what it was in my past mailers.
