Sorry to hear of your frustrating experience because of another cash grab from WGT. Look at the bright side, at least you didn't waste your time and credits chasing levels, only to get to level 17 and find not one benefit for all it takes to get there. Oh yeah, I forgot, something was stated about it will be retro-active. The good old checks in the mail scheme.
The promised CC benefits, like the club bank, and officers that have more than just a title, are just another bold lie by WGT in order for them to bilk more credits from their users..
