OK another question re entertainment
Is it best to book Human Nature/Divas Las Vegas through Goldstar or similar discount website....or wait until I check in at IP and see if the money off coupons they give you would work out cheaper or the Tix booths maybe???
Also do you know where I can get discounted tickets for Jersey Boys

VegasTix4Less sell Human Nature tickets half price ish, but Tix4Tonight don't. Works out about the same price as Goldstar.

I have seen Jersey Boys at T4T, but not half price, maybe 20% off.

Can anyone tell me how to contact MGM Grand by email please. I cancelled a couple of bookings and have still not received a refund for one of them. I really don't want to ring them because when I phoned originally to make my cancellations I was on the phone for over 30 minutes!! The email address that I have for them doesn't take replies.

[EMAIL="mgmres@lv.mgmgrand.com"]mgmres@lv.mgmgrand.com[/EMAIL]

Yes it was, as this is the one they used to send the booking confirmation. When I followed the link on their site for cancelling a booking it told me I could not do it on line and to call them. I cannot find any email addresses anywhere on their site.

I have called them a few times it is the best way to get any thing done, I have never been on the phone very long BUT even at 30mins it would only cost you 30p

Did you go through one of the "callchecker" numbers in the phone sticky at top of home page, I would post link but my pc is working so slowly

Can anyone recommend a cheap easy to use company for phone calls from America to UK.
We have used Redstones for years ( mainly because we have always had credit left)and you just put in the access code in the payphone,then ring home as usual.This year we have no credit left,and would like to try someone else,So I was wondering if anyone had the name of a good company, with cheap call charges.Don't want to pay to much,as we will only need to make a couple of calls home while we are there.

All sorted they say I'll get my deposit back in a couple of days. Still seems funny though that the deposit for my other booking came back over 2 weeks ago to my card and they were both cancelled in the same phone call. I did use the cheap 1p calls thanks for your help:T

I cancelled 4 reservations with MGM. Only 2 of them were refunded within a couple of days. I called again about the other 2 as I'd had to cancel through Casino Marketing as they were a special offer for Player's Club members. They were refunded a few days later.

I always call hotels and restaurants in Vegas as you rarely get a response to an email and you can't guarantee someone acted on it.

If it's only for a few calls and assuming Skype and the like is out, probably a calling card from Walgreens/7-11/CVS...you can buy them as low as $5 and the per minute rate is quite good...my mother in law bought a $10 one and made several calls home and had more than 1/2 the credit left. Don't buy the ones in the machines at the hotels as they're poor value.
