How to get your MGM Resort Fees by Yourself

It’s really difficult to get MGM to waive their resort fees, if not wholly impossible. You’ll need to contact customer service, wait on hold, explain yourself (super politely), wait for a manager, and get the runaround.

Some good reasons to ask for a refund are:

  • You didn’t use any parking or valet parking at the hotel
  • You didn’t use any internet services at any time during your stay
  • You didn’t use the gym, fitness center, pool or spa
  • You were disappointed in the cleanliness of the room
  • The front desk clerk or reservation agent didn’t make you aware of any fees when taking your reservation

Then you’ll need to provide documentation, take it up the customer service support ladder, speak to more representatives and send some emails. Is it really worth it? Most people end up giving up. But DoNotPay makes it much easier to get your and refunded.
