beastrider97 Posted August 13, 2012 Share Posted August 13, 2012 ^I'd also like to know if they are valid on Platinum Passes or just Gold Passes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jcgoble3 Posted August 13, 2012 Share Posted August 13, 2012 The last two posts demonstrate what I consider to be the single largest problem with the current implementation of FUN Perks. The current implementation forces you to select your reward based solely on a three- or four-word description, and only AFTER you make that irrevocable choice are you shown the full details and fine print on the voucher. I understand that the program is still being tested and modified, but this IMO needs to be fixed ASAP. They need to ensure that people can know exactly what they are getting before they make a choice that can't be undone. To not do so is deceptive at best. 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CedarPointer Posted August 14, 2012 Share Posted August 14, 2012 Has anyone redeemed and printed (I assume none have been used yet) a reward for $x off a 2013 pass? I have one at $10 for a level 2 reward, and another at $20 for a level 3, and assume there will be another option at level 4 if/when I get there. My question is, can I print off both the $20 and the $10 reward and use both? I'll have to purchass multiple passes, so I suspect I can use one on one pass, and the other on another, or perhaps I'd have to do them in seperate orders, but they reward voucher might limit your options. Knowing their system, I doubt it would allow you to combine both vouchers into one pass, but they would be able to be used on two separate passes.

diamondhawk Posted August 15, 2012 Share Posted August 15, 2012 If they still have the $69.99 renewal next year, would I be able to use the $20 off with that? A $49.99 pass would be pretty cool! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KingsIsland1972 Posted August 16, 2012 Share Posted August 16, 2012 Does anyone know if FunPerks will carry through Haunt or will they expire on Labor Day Weekend? Thank you. That is all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jcgoble3 Posted August 16, 2012 Share Posted August 16, 2012 Does anyone know if FunPerks will carry through Haunt or will they expire on Labor Day Weekend? Thank you. That is all. Yes. Someone knows. More seriously, ask the park. There's a dedicated contact form for FUN Perks here. You could also ask at the FUN Perks information booth at the front of the park.

Ogrmac Posted August 16, 2012 Share Posted August 16, 2012 Does anyone know if FunPerks will carry through Haunt or will they expire on Labor Day Weekend? Thank you. That is all. You can contact the park and ask, but the FAQ on the FunPerks site states All rewards must be redeemed by the end of the 2012 operating season (October 28). Rewards will not carry over to 2013.

Snowman Posted August 16, 2012 Share Posted August 16, 2012 I've asked and yes the fun perks can be used during haunt. Stated by a guest relations supervisor. Not the Dippin' Dots Dude. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

khaoskat Posted August 17, 2012 Author Share Posted August 17, 2012 Interesting. My previous perks at level 2 did not include $10 off a pass for next year. Today they now have that as an option... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
homestar92 Posted August 17, 2012 Share Posted August 17, 2012 Also, you could redeem the $5 Beagle Bucks perk, and use that toward a pass if you're level 3. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As you progress through the level, the list of rewards available to you at that level expands at the same time that you get a second choice at that level. The $10 off season pass is one of those that does not show up until then. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like the 50% off admission, I am sure the discount will only apply to the "regular" price. Here's hoping it's not though! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As for 2013, if it is a $69.99 renewal, with a $20 buyout day discount and a $20 Funperks discount - my new target price for 2013 would be $29.99 Yeah, not thinking it'll happen.

KI-ORIG-EMP Posted August 17, 2012 Share Posted August 17, 2012 Better check the fine print. Lots of discounts offered by places saids, offers can not be combined. Check first. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VortexBFForever Posted August 17, 2012 Share Posted August 17, 2012 I just joined FUN Perks and I'm already 58% to Level 2! Of course I've visited four times (plus one trip when I forgot my pass) and spent money on a bracelet and a Vortex on-ride photo, so for now I'm good.

Dill Posted August 21, 2012 Share Posted August 21, 2012 Does anyone know if Funperks will roll over into the next season? Will we need to register all over again and will we start back at level 1? Will we keep any rewards we have earned? Any answers? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheCrypt Posted August 21, 2012 Share Posted August 21, 2012 I imagine if you renew, your account will carry over. If you get a new pass, you would probably have to renew. The only people who have the true answer to that question is the park. That was a good question! I thought about it the other day, then thought of the reason above.

While I'm pretty sure our individual accounts will cary over, wether or not the earning and rewards part of it does, the park has a lot of potential to improve on the system next year. So I feel that it will work well next year wether we do or do not get to keep out star status. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheCrypt Posted August 21, 2012 Share Posted August 21, 2012 This time, I know for certain something about FUN Perks! The rewards do not carry over. On the current FUN Perks offer redemption tickets, they say, and I quote: "Certificate valid ONLY during the 2012 Kings Island park season."

The Interpreter Posted August 21, 2012 Share Posted August 21, 2012 Fun Perks is a test program. It may or may not exist next year. Even if the park says today that it will, that is subject to change. Decisions change, plans change, tests succeed, or don't. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheCrypt Posted August 21, 2012 Share Posted August 21, 2012 I feel certain that FUN Perks will be around next year. I know I've made an effort to buy a ton of merchandise for my benefit as well as the park's. If I am not mistaken, we have seen a revenue increase this year from FUN, and I do not doubt FUN Perks was a contributing factor. I would expect to see it rolled out to a few other selective parks next year. But I do see it from your perspective, The Interpreter. Anything's possible, I suppose (well, maybe not stapling liquid water to a tree). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Decisions change, plans change, tests succeed, or don't. They seem pretty confiden in the program. They heavily advertise it throughout the park with banners, signs, and a small building dedicated JUST for the program. I think they plan on keeping it around for a while. And on a side note, does anyone else laugh every time you see that crazy girl on the signs?! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Interpreter Posted August 22, 2012 Share Posted August 22, 2012 When you test a concept, you promote it. McDonald's heavily promoted pizza years ago. How's that doing? Down here they are testing Mighty Wings bone-in chicken wings (and, in my opinion, they are disgustingly awful!). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TTD-120-420 Posted August 30, 2012 Share Posted August 30, 2012 I wish this would be rolled out chain wide. I hate how half my park visits don't count for anything because they are to Cedar Point. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
malem Posted August 30, 2012 Share Posted August 30, 2012 If it is rolled out to more parks, as seems likely, I would imagine that perks and levels will be separate for each park. (i.e. a visit to Cedar Point probably isn't going to help you level up at Kings Island) Each park has its own prices, potential "perks", guest spending habits, season pass visit frequency, etc. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
