Yep, agree with Pompey.  I've started to bring most of my gambling funds as cash.  The holds on my card have stayed for up to 3 weeks which is a major hassle.  And you're right - the final charge is on there but then I have anywhere from 3-5 other holds as well.  I get that they want to make sure the card is still good but 2-3 weeks is ridiculous.

 

It is RCI incompetence with anything IT.

 

Everyone else gets it right, the holds are removed when the card is actually charged.

Interestingly, I returned from my cruise on Monday, my card was charged for the full amount, and yet the same exact amount is also showing as pending.

You know, you can always apply for casino credit and then you do not have to pay a convenience fee at the tables OR the slots, and you don't have to carry a wad of cash with you.  No holds on your credit card. Of course, you do have to bring a blank check and have the money in the bank at time of application, but if you were going to bring cash, you would have that much any way.
