Casino Accounts (Slots vs. Tables) - or, can you avoid the 3% fee?

hey everyone. so i understand that you can add up to $300 on your casino account for no fee at a slot machine. i also understand that if you add money to your casino account at a table game (or live poker?) or the cashier's cage, you incur a 3% fee.

are these two different accounts? is there anything stopping someone from sitting at a slot machine, adding $300, and using that to play blackjack or live poker?

add it to the card ....take it to the cashiers and cash out the card they will give you cash....take the cash to the table game.....or where ever you want to go really.....it is your money after you cash out the card

is there anything stopping someone from sitting at a slot machine, adding $300, and using that to play blackjack or live poker?

Yes, your card can get automatically blocked from slot withdrawals if charge your S&S at the slots and then cash out to your player bank without playing any of what you withdrew.

Yeah they did it to me when I did that woops...

Just play the slot a few spins, then cash out. I've never had an issue.

From experience, you can get away with the deposit on slot, withdraw instantly, get account blocked, meet with casino manager, get it unlocked once. Meaning if you only do it once they will unlock but tell you if it happens again, they can't. Basically, they don't want you to use the slots as free ATMs anymore.....first couple I took on CCL they didn't monitor, now they do.

Up to $300? In one transaction or the entire cruise?

why turn it into cash? isn't the player bank sufficient?

not if you want to play table games

$300 limit per transaction. I believe that the overall limit is $3,000/day. (At least that is what I was told at the cashier's cage when I inquired.)

I do this all the time. I don't take any cash with me for the casino, I just use the player's bank. Of course, I play slots and tables, so I've never had a problem with my account getting locked.

Same here.:)

Perfect way to get cash for other stuff without incurring fees. Load your slot card, play a little, and then cash out. Even a few turns at a penny machine works.

If you are a Players Club guest, no charges machine or table. Charged $6000 last cruise, I do not know if it helps with your future offers or not, may just be based on play; but I have received 3 offers in 4 months $600.
