  I am in no way affiliated with this card, but since you mentioned the MGM credit card, I think the better choice is the Hyatt credit card for MGM hotels. There is a $75 (I think) annual fee, but it comes with a free night every year that can be used at MGM, NYNY or Monte Carlo (or whatever it's called now). Also 2 free nights at ANY MGM/Hyatt hotel on signup and Hyatt Platinum status, which they will match to MLife Gold status.

  I've been visiting Vegas 2-3 times a year since 1996 and for the first time, during my most recent trip to Vegas last week, I avoided parking at and visiting any MGM properties due to the parking fees. The resort fees are bad enough. I refuse to pay to park also when there are other alternatives nearby. I hope enough of us do the same that MGM's revenues decline and they have to backtrack on the parking fees.

  I just returned from Las Vegas this morning at 1:00am. We were there for 7 days. Twice, I took a ticket, paid for parking before returning to my car only to have the gate lifted by some guy standing by the gate, without even looking at my damn ticket. We had reservations at the Flamingo the full 7 days. We also booked 2 nights during our stay at the Monte Carlo so our kids could enjoy the lazy river. We checked out after one day because of the whole new parking deal. Like I said, I paid $16 before I returned to the car. As I drove up to the gate, up it went without anyone, or anything even looking at my tickets. Late that night, the same thing happened at the Luxor. So it became a game, and a little stressful. Do I pay? Do I not pay? Do I not pay and have to return to the payment machines? I finally said screw this, and we returned back to the Flamingo. We paid for, and yet left a hotel room a day early! I am a Pearl card holder. Nobody even bothered to tell me parking was free for that level of card. I found out about it on the plane on the way home, from another very confused MGM parking hater. My wife and I go to Vegas alot. ALOT. I was there for my Birthday at the end of the May, we were there last week and we are turning on July 25th. ALOT. If you think I am staying at another MGM property anytime soon, guess again.

  Here is how I pay to park at the MGM properties? Oh wait, I avoid them so I dont have to pay. Even though I am local and its "free" they still want me to pay with my privacy and scan my ID into a database that will eventually get hacked and get my ID stolen. No thanks

  So... I get what you are saying Sir. I agree with you in that I will be avoiding MGM properties when given a choice such as dinner at Mandalay Place restaurant or Capos or SLS and I will easily choose non MGM properties. BUT... Sometimes there are shows at HOB that I want to see so... On the other hand, so much of your privacy is out the window, especially in Las Vegas. Look around you. There are cameras every where. Cameras you can not see are watching you. Your cell phone is being tracked. Maybe even your car is tracking you and sending data back to the manufacturer without you even knowing it. (That is not fantasy. It happens at Tesla.) Heck, you commenting on this blog subjects your info being collected by Discus dot com and who knows what they do with that info and how secure it is. So yes, privacy is a big issue but is it really safe after all?

  First no show is worth my privacy, I would park elsewhere and walk if need be. Secondly what makes you think I post anything on disquss with my real name or IP.. I can assure you, roger is not my real name so let them collect away. If I could get a fake ID for them to scan every time I went into an MGM property I would, but that sadly is illegal even if the use only is to protect ones privacy.
