In the mail today was a notice from Bank of America that effective the end of March 2013 Bank of America "will be ending its relationship with the Caesars Total Rewards program." The notice says that my current Total Rewards Visa card will be converted to a "BankAmericard Power Rewards" Visa card account.
Also in the notice:
"You will not lose any Reward Credits you have earned."
Are there other banks associated with the Caesars Total Rewards program?
What was especially advantageous about the Total Rewards credit card program is that you could keep your "comp balance" alive even if you were not a regular casino customer. Under the Caesars Total Rewards system, you must earn at least one credit every six months to keep your comps from expiring. In the past, that meant a casino visit at least every six months -- or getting a friend to play on your card for a few bucks. But if you made at least one purchase every six months with the Total Rewards Credit Card that counted the same as play in a casino.
