Great Race 2012 (Kiosks Card Swipe or Checkin)

Hammond definitely has kiosks

I have a question, can you check to make sure your have 25 points?, I always worry about these things!!

NO......I sent Harrahs an email to question this and this was their reply:

As of yesterday, we were officially informed from our Corporate Total Rewards that unfortunately there is not a way for our guests to track their checkpoints for this promotion. The only suggestion we can give is to check at the end of your visit to any of the qualifying properties with the Total Rewards Department and they can look at what you have earned for the day and if it qualifies for the promotion. You can always ask a Total Rewards Representative how many Tier credits you have earned since the promotion started. We wish there was an easier way to track this but as of right now, that is all we can do.

Basically they are saying.......TRUST US.

Of course you can check your points to see if you played 25 points. Sign into your account online the day before you go to the casino, and write down your points. Then check the next day after you play (may not be in real time, though; not sure). Subtract one from the other and see if you got at least 25 points. You can also see the date of your last play.

You can also see it on the crawl on any machine after you insert your card. "..... On 7/31 you have earned 26 tier points and 0 comp points....."

If you are talking about whether you got the checkpoints, then no, there is no way to check that. You would have to ask at the TR desk to make sure you have been swiped.

I don't remember hearing any complaints last year about points posting, but last year you did not have to swipe at each property.

Also, at Caesars in AC, the kiosks(if I remember correctly there were 4 of them) were located by VIP Check In.

Myself? Being a midwest guy, 15 points for covering destinations is not difficult for me......I don't require help, just looking to see if I can help others decide which destinations might work best for them.
