Thread: Verdict on Player Status with MLife at Borgata

    Verdict on Player Status with MLife at Borgata

    Hi Guys ... I've been doing a lot of thinking and reading up on the card status, rewards, etc., and just wondering how the Borgata players feel about the requirements for MLife Gold, whether or not you feel it's as do-able for you as Borgata Black card was, or if it is now out of reach. I see lots of players seem to be having an easier time getting perks and achieving higher status with CET. There is no doubt that the travel advantages are greater with that program due to the availability of CET casinos everywhere, but I know that, while I love to travel, I really will be playing closer to home more often and I do love Borgata.

    I finally found confirmation that, even though MLife Rewards MasterCard will give you automatic Pearl, you do not get the 25,000 in tier credits for a jump start toward Gold, so that status for a player like me just seems impossible to achieve, and it stinks because I spend hours at the machines, sometimes even to the point of exhaustion (haha!), but it gets me nowhere.

    We are also wondering about the Borgata rewards system. For instance what is the coin in per tier credit? Also for comp dollars and slot play? Looks like CET Diamond is same as MLife Gold. 15000 TC for diamond which is $75000 coin in. But with the bonus programs this can be had for $5000 coin in without a doubt. How does this compare to MLife. Can't find any real rules on Borgata web site.

    BUT PLEASE answer Low and Slow's questions first. Her thread.

    I feel like I earn comp at Borgata the same way as I always have. $1 comp dollar for every $100 coin in. As for tier I haven't quite figured this out, but in almost 4 months I have earned 30 tier credits.

    I saw this on a site about MLife tier, for every $3 of Slot Play = 10 Tier Credits.

    I like that MLife took over, I am taking advantage of a Beau Rivage junket in 2 weeks. I only paid $100 for 2 of us to fly, 4 nights comped, shuttle service to and from airport and $400 FP.

    If I wanted a time out, I would go back to kindergarten.

    I think I may have answered your questions too when I responded above.

    When you say, this can be had for $5000 coin in without a doubt, I'm assuming you're taking advantage of every opportunity for tier credit multipliers. I don't know how else one can do that. If what BB says is accurate, and I fully believe it is, on our last visit I earned almost $40 in Express Comps plus slot play plus "points." I finally got the answer that points are equal to one penny per point and can only be converted to slot play in batches of 500. So, back to the comps conversion, shouldn't $40 in comps equal $4000 coin in? So, if that's the case, I should be well on my way to getting where I want to be, but I must surely be doing something wrong because I never get offers for junkets. Nothing other than Sun-Thurs rooms, free comedy show tickets, entry into the slot tourneys or bingo, and minimal FSP. Ugggghhhh ....

    @Penguin, this is the first time I have ever received this offer and as of now I have 101,000 tier credits. I played exclusively at Borgata for years, never earning Black until this year. However I would usually earn 700-750 each year with Borgata.

    I really worked to earn Black right before the conversion to MLife. I felt I would start getting Fri/Sat nights in standard rooms once I would get over 500 comp for the year and Fiore suites from Sun-Th.

    I think we are getting a little less slot dollars now with MLife than we did with Borgata.

    Well, the only thing I can think of is that once you do bump up in tiers, you start to earn at a higher rate. It still doesn't seem within reach for me at all. I'm sure it feels great to finally hit your goal.

    $4000 coin in means that the casino on average will make $600 from you. Given that the slots are at 85% payback. Casino will comp you 30% ???of that $600. If your room cost $180, they won't give you more than that.
