Please everyone chime in and help to complete or correct the list... I'll start with what I have heard from hosts or others.

For Newbies (like me), take 30-35% of your daily Theo, deduct your room and go from there for FB, etc. etc.

So today I got a voice mail and email from a host in LA advising she was my point of contact for any property. No specific offer included. Anyone else heard of this? I knew they had regional hosts but since I live in San Diego I just...

]]> 3 Assistance with receiving comp offers ? Thu, 23 Feb 2017 19:30:14 +0000 https://www.vegasboards.com/threads/assistance-with-receiving-comp-offers.2073/ https://www.vegasboards.com/threads/assistance-with-receiving-comp-offers.2073/ invalid@example.com (MatthewNL) MatthewNL Hello,

Just to give a bit of background I've mainly kept my play to MLIFE properties and I visit Vegas around 6+ times per year. Last year I was only about 5% short of getting Platinum and stayed comped at Aria, Luxor and Monte Carlo for most of my trips. My offer typically included 2-3 nights plus 150 resort credit and 100 free play.

I am unsure of what my actual coin in is and this year I am going to try and keep better track of that. I typically...

Is this just a bad time of the year (as in, if I hold out maybe the offers will get better in April or May), or is Mlife getting cheap on me?]]> MLIFE Fall/Spring Offers ??

Just curious if anyone has gotten there new 2017 MLife offers? I had a trip in late Dec (15th-18th) where I put in a lot of coin in at Aria/NYNY and Excalibur. Huge amount of coin in and losses unfortunately in the Excalibur HL room hehe :(

Anyway..I usually get offers from MLIFE properties for 2-3 nights with some FP and RC's but still nothing so far. Do their fall/spring offers not become available until later? Or perhaps they are cutting back? Last year I got several offers from...

I just returned from a weekend trip to VP that included an upfront comp of a room for 3 nights, $1500 FP, and a $500 GC, and upon check out asked my host, who is new to me, to look into comping off my room charges (brunch at Bouchon and spa).

She replied via email with this response

I am sorry but there are no additional comps available for this trip.

The rates were pretty high so you were actually over comp’d on...

If this isn't my first post, it's certainly one of them. I have been reading since the beginning, but am definitely more of a lurker than a poster. That being said, my wife and I are going to Las Vegas March 2 - March 9 which is quickly becoming a crazy busy couple of days out there (UFC 210, Blake Shelton Concert, Basketball Tournaments etc).

I had previously reached out to a host who frequents a different board after being unable to get any response booking rooms at the hotel we...

My question is, since I'm Mlife Gold, is the smarter move to pass on this offer and hope to score a complimentary (or $20 trick) upgrade, or maybe get it for less (say $50/night) when I check in? This is for the week of Jan 9th, right after the CES. Since room rates were low for that week...

One night (middle of the week, solo, I was flying thru on business, so short trip). Stayed in an Executive Sky Suite, which was really just a glorified fancy room. Had $50 in drinks and ceviche at Javiers. Had a $175 dinner at Jean George.
Also at ate Eggslut (its absurd how good that place is), but of course I had to come out of pocket for that.

She got hooked up by my host with 4 nights in a Salone Suite at Bellagio, no freeplay, limo to and from the airport, $700 F&B, 2 tix to Michael Jackson One and limo to and from Mandalay Bay.

Playing only slots, her theo was 8700 at Mlife. She also played a lot at PHO, Paris and Cosmo.

So, did she leave comps on the table? I'm guessing yes?

For our trip on Friday, as a new player, she got $1500 freeplay at Aria, $950...

They just sent me a wonderfull offer of 15 percent off on room stays.

Ironically it came two days after a two night complementary stay offer from the Aria (gave them zero play during the last trip)..

I had two rooms at Caesars and booked a third room at the Borgata. Truth be told, I double booked the room but gave to a non-gambling friend to use. Because my homebase for the weekend was at Caesars, I focused most of my play there and at Bally's and played only minimally at the Borgata.

I asked my Borgata host for my ADT figures:

Back in mid-July I asked a CET marketing executive if it was possible for me to switch hosts in LV because the one I was assigned had poor communication skills and screwed up a couple of reservations. Based on a referral from a VB member, I asked to be reassigned to another host. The Executive apologized and with the snap of a finger, I had a new host!

This new host surprised me during my last trip with a meet and greet...
