    So I guess its true now that you can get offers no matter where you play? As i haven't played a penny at MGM and they still offered up a 2 night West Wing comp (albeit very limited days..). I have not given much play to MLife but in February I did play for a few days and just finally got a 4 night Excalibur and 2 night at Luxor, and Park MGM.

    If you can play around like CET, it does make it more appealing but I am still worried the focus is on the property you play at... not sure if any can confirm or deny

    Mine have marginally improved today but still not as good as a few weeks ago.

    It's hard to say. It looks to me like MLife properties that you've played at (or possibly played AND stayed at) may send you separate/additional offers.

    In the last 4 years, I've only played at MGM Grand and Luxor. and I stayed at both. I usually get 2 offers from MGM; one looks pretty much like a Corporate offer, and the other looks like a property-specific (and is usually worse). From Luxor, I get separate offers for slot tourneys.

    All of my other offers look like Corporate offers, even though they're tagged specifically to the hotel (ie. "Your Bellagio Offer", etc), because the terms (like # of nights, FP & RC) are the same as my Corporate offers have always been.

    But I always play where I stay. In theory, spreading your play shouldn't hurt your corporate offers but might hurt your offers from the property(s) you stay at.

    It has always worked this way. I think I stayed/played at Excalibur 15+ years ago, but they are always part of my corporate offers. Same goes with MGM, Monte Carlo (now Park MGM) and I stayed at Aria once.

    Your Mlife play is rated as a whole. If you play enough to get offers, your quarterly corporate offers should be across the board. Just on a sliding scale.

    Just a made up example, but this should help.

    Your ADT might get you 3 nights comp, including weekends, + $75 in resort credit + $25 in free play at Luxor, Excalibur, NY NY, & Mandalay Bay. OR you can book 2 nights comp (some weekends blocked out) + $50 in resort credit + $25 in free play at MGM, Mirage & Park MGM (after the reno). OR 1 night comp, probably week day, and just a small $25 resort credit at Aria or Bellagio.

    With that said, like Chuck pointed out, those properties where you concentrate your play should trigger direct offers. I stay at Luxor mostly when I do an Mlife trip. I pull the same type of corporate offers as I posted above, but Luxor will also send me slot tourneys, fancy party things for the holidays or offers with suites and more free play above what I get in my corporate offers.

    But for as long as Mlife has existed all of your play did get you rated at all properties.

    CET is better at this, they will flat rate your play no matter what. Your host will get credit for ALL play in town as well. Mlife hosts only get credit for play at their casinos. So they usually try to get you to sit there and play.

    Went to book today for an October trip and most of my offers are gone as well. I only have the multiple resort game offer for 4 nights +, but every time I select a date or resort (any date, any resort) I get Unfortunately, the selected offer is not applicable for you. Why have an offer with no availability?

    I am hoping this is some kind of weird glitch or else I am staying elsewhere.

    It's probably a glitch I believe I had the same thing happen to me before.

    Have you tired going to the hotel specific site and see what offer is there? ie mirage.com

    My offers have been restored as of two days ago. I had just about nothing for three months.

    Got my offers though it's bundled under a single "offer" .. Worse than than before - down to 50 f&b, 50 fp except Excalibur and Luxor (100). All this despite racking up 270k tier credits between may 29 and June 10.

    Thinking of redeeming Bellagio, supplementing with 50 fp from myvegas, and putting play towards cet.

    That last trip won't kick in until at least 2-3 months later. With those numbers, if you need a booking probably call in and talk to a host.

    I agree, if that recent play represents a significant increase in your play level, it'll take a couple of cycles to work its way in.

    Yup, definitely a significant increase I was aiming for Gold requal.

    Yeah I got the same but going to the specific property website rectifies it. I also appear to get more COMP nights on the individual property websites as opposed the Mlife website.

    Thanks, I was able to get the offers through the individual properties. Figures they wouldn't make it easy to make reservations.

    I like most of you have been getting these same M-Life monthly offers (3 compt nights on select dates, FP, Resort Credit) through Dec 15. I'm curious how long I'll continue to see these offers? Our last trip to Vegas was at the beginning of January. We just had our 3rd child in May so getting back to Vegas anytime soon won't happen. We are looking at going the last week of March next year. Any chance I'll keep seeing these offers through like December that I'll be able to book for March?

    I’m in a similar situation. Getting average offers now but next trip won’t be until next April so hoping offers are still there at the turn of the year.

    This last trip I stayed at Cosmo but had a couple of pricey meals at MGM so not sure if that has benefited me or not. I did v little gambling at MGM.

    Yeah I would expect you to easily keep getting them long enough to book something in March. That's only 3 or 4 cycles from where they are now. So if you look out to the offers that come out in October, that'll only be 10 months since your last visit. Should be safe. it might be better, same, or worse, no way to really tell that.

    Even if you stopped seeing offers online, your January trip is recent enough so you shouldn't have a problem calling and booking something when October rolls around, they can look up your play.
