Just curious if anyone has one and if you have used it for parking on the strip. I just got one, haven't been to LV since I got it, it says it gets you free parking as part of the automatic Pearl status and was wondering if you just put your credit card in the reader when you leave? Won't be there again until February so plenty of time to figure it out.....really just wanted to say hi too, it's been a while :)
Put the card into the reader when you enter and when leaving - parking will be free. Just be sure to use the card every 60 days or so ( if not used for 6 months I believe the card will be void)- just get a tank of gas or such and the card will be activated for free parking.

Thanks, kinda figured it was along those lines, was wondering if that's why the card is printed 90 degrees differently from other cards LOL......looking forward to using it; I didn't get it specifically just to park free at MGM properties but I refuse to pay to park there just out of principle
You don't need to use the physical credit card for parking ... just use your Pearl mLife players card which you acquire every year the credit card is active.
I use this perk all the time. It's the exact reason why got the Credit Crad. You have to use the M life card.. not the credit card. If you don't have the M life card when you enter, take a ticket and then get yourself a new M life card.. then use it when you exit. If all else fails and you don't have the M life card when you are exiting, you can hit the Customer service button and they will ask for your info... they will verify that you are a pearl card holder and let you exit! (I don't suggest doing the last option.. since it takes a few minutes and you will hold up the line behind you.) As mentioned by Steven above.. as long as your Credit Card is active you are good to go!
FYI, if you are a Veteran or Active/Reserve Duty Military or Dependant, ask about the policy for them (before you get a CC). Nice to see they honor our heros.
I signed up for the MGM master card a couple of years ago. I play sparingly at MGM properties for several reasons, but I like the free parking perk I receive with the card. I used it for parking at the Mandalay Bay parking ramp for 5 days during a recent conference that I attended earlier this month. The card could not have worked any better; in and out without any problems.
