  If you by the first upgrade for $9000 can you then add the premier for just another $9000 to get to 18,000?

  In some cases, yes. But it has to be fairly quickly after you purchase the Plus membership.

  So, in many cases, you'd pay 150 % to achive 100 % (of a bad deal IMHO).

  And, from the FAQs, it's clear that there's no extra bonus for both, but the major just exceeds the minor. That would be additional costs on a bad deal!

  Good point Alosso. The point is that it would be weird to let someone have the plus for 6 months and then upgrade for only 8000 credits and have premier for the whole year. For now this is the only way we can do it.

  You'd still be on the better side of that ridiculous product's deal!

  Another great point.Thanks Alosso. But I don't think anyone who spent 18,000 credits from the get go would be very happy to find out another player spent the same amount and got a full year of premier and multiple months of Plus for the same price. This is why we ask for it to be a quick turn around. Hopefully in the near future we'll have a better system in place for players who want to upgrade.

  Agreeing to my major point "ridiculous product"?

  These memberships are great products for WGT and a few rich players who just can't resist a good deal and a well spoken salesman. Just be glad the WGT does not employ some of those out of work time share salesmen who will not take "no" for an answer when all you really wanted was a free meal at a nice restaurant. Say, Champ, could you throw in a free meal?

  If I had to venture a guess, I'd say that 65% of the people who bought the plus package, wouldn't upgrade anyways.  Maybe that number is higher, don't know for sure.  I think that the difference between the two, was that one is based for the mobile app. Since we cannot play cabo, whistler, the premiere package offers very little.  The plus is cheaper, therefore , it may be more appealing to the mobile side.  No reason for us to pay up for the premiere side.

  Right now the mobile app is limited on some courses, including the premium courses. 

  I expect they will get it up to par before long. There are to many bells and whistles for me. If I was on mobile all the time, I would not have gotten premier because it would be difficult running a club from mobile.

  So I wouldn't have a club on mobile. Just my take
