Genting FAQ - Part 3

[vsvs24]

Does anyone know how much the rooms at FWH cost per night during November period? Tried looking online but the prices seem really high compared to when I last went there.

Aiyah. Why didn't you go to the Visit Malaysia Fair 4 to 6 Oct. They were offering Buy 1 get 1 free for FWH std, deluxe and Y5 deluxe (exclude sat). Due to the large amount of booking at the fair, probably less rooms available now hence higher rates.

Thanks. Hmmmm. Didn't know about the concert....Tempting.

Ehh.. I was not talking about concerts. I dun think they gave out tickets for those.

I'm talking about the resident shows they run for months like the current IMAGINATRICKS .

Gold members and above can get free tickets to these shows.

Hahaha...I'm still waiting for something to appear in my app? How does the free room work? I emailed 2 days back but no reply yet. Maybe I should WhatsApp? Cos I'm going end of November. Wanna get some comps leh. Waraoz.

It's faster if you call the VIP hotline directly as they can see and advise you on your comp entitlement immediately.

Just sharing and experienced folks here probably using this method already?.. if any bros here bring sgd for backup bankroll, can probably store in youtrip. Just tested the exchange rates both retail purchase and withdrawal at cimb...excellent rates. Beats money changer at least during my times of transactions and based on cashchanger rates. Of cos the 5 sgd fee for withdrawals but more than sufficiently offset by the positive exchange rates. Def beats withdrawing from credit cards. Of cos there is always foc cimb and maybank ATM but lacks the good exchange rates. Just another avenue of cheaper source of desperate bankroll. The sucky part of cos is once transferred to youtrip, cant take out hence "spare cash bankroll" if you havent an urgent need elsewhere.

If server or service outage... then how? Youtrip is not stable yet. It’s still very glitchy

Oh really ah? I have read about the glitches at some other forum. Hmmm...guess it may not be a stable backup then if such glitches are common.

Really don't see any advantage to be gold member. Rather remain as silver.

even if u just slot 1k per trip per mth fr jan u wld get gold by yrs end or maybe even shorter. so its not difficult to get gold but shldnt chase after platinum.
if card level is your target then just tell them u r plonging in a 100k, they'll more than glad to issue u that card with limousine and crockford provided.

Waraoz the fwh rates just tripled to almost 180rm for the dates I wanna go 17 to 19th November! I mean it's "just" sgd60 but the tot of it tripling is very ai-wan. Hahaha...guess I will sleep with the slots machines.

Alamak. The number is behind your member card or you can call 68239888 after office number. You would be directed to the VIP reservation after keying in your membership number.

I think Singaporean need to apply in person at the Membership counter.

At least I think almost all of us did that when we first apply for the card.

I thought Youtrip would give you a physical VISA pre-paid card for your transactions.

The payment and ATM withdrawal should be done by VISA network rt?

Any server outage on Youtrip end should not affect those transactions right?

got the same issue last month trying to apply online for my family members..at least can just pick up the card when we were there. Unfortunately, NO..email them a few times but they dont respond .
Need to apply in person.

Yes, youtrip ..given the physical card.

That is like your normal Visa Debit Card...once transacted SMS will be sent to you...indicating the amount sent..is there any issue with that in Genting?
