I get offers from many of the mgm casinos, where I don't play that often--I assume it is based on my play at the casinos where I DO play.
[A few years ago, Excalibur, sent me a New Years Eve promo (free stay and other perks), yet I had never played there.]

What benefit are you looking for? You should be able to call a host at one of the other properties and book a room based on your play at MB, and possibly qualify for event invitations. You can sign meals at any MGM-Mirage property to your room at MB and if your play warrants, get them comped.

I'd have thought MGM's Players Club was the same across all the MGM properties that offered it.
I have RBP'd a request to update the title. For future search improvements. Sorry!

The Harrah's Casino group, seems to have well defined comp and cash system--the number of RC (reward credits) (which you can use throughout the system (nationwide)) shows when you put your Total Rewards Card into a slot machines card reader.
The MGM group, internally may have something similar, but the player is not privy to this info--since there is no stated RC system.

MGM has both a stated point system redeemable for free play and a stated holiday gift shop system. Both HET and MGM have discretionary comps that you can't see, but HET refuses to give them to you until you spend your points. MGM comps never come out of your points.

I believe MGM does have a "secret" system, where you can get food etc., but since it is secret, you have to rely on the Players Club desk to tell you what you get .

TI is no longer on my offers page
I used to get regular offers from TI for free or discounted stays as part of my MGM Players Club. Unsurprisingly, those offers are no longer listed on my MGM Players Club Offer list since it has been sold. Personally, I thought the location of TI made it a very good mid-level value on the strip.

I also thought that TI was "out" of the family.

Im new to this forum and the players club.
If there are 3 of us in a suite and we each have our own players card and use to earn points/comps etc, can we then use all 3 cards at checkout to get comped off our final bill???

No. Visit a host upon your arrival. You're gonna be disappointed if you think your plan will work on checkout. Good luck on your trip!

Or, wait until your arrival. Ask the front desk, or a casino employee, that you wish to speak to a host, and they'll round up one for you.
Good luck!
