The New,New Hotel Thread-Yes, We're STILL Waiting

[sandgrace]

Can anyone confirm that they got the videos one time.. didn't have time to book but then again got the videos one more time and was able to book? How much of a time difference between running out of time and being able to see the videos again?

Thanks!

I got the video once before, that was yesterday and it was my first time on LMT for the day. I ran out of time then. Tried again throughout the day yesterday, and never got another chance.

Today, my first time on LMT the video came up and I got to book. Maybe, you get the best chance the first time you check the site for the day? Not sure, but that's what has happened to me.

I am pretty sure that is true, because that is the whole point of this website- you take a chance not knowing what hotel you will get in order to get the sometimes lower prices. I am sorry that you didn't get what you wanted, that is disappointing, but any trip is better than no trip, right? And $1 seems pretty awesome! Just curious- is the Regal Sun nice? How do you get it for $25? Maybe I can afford an Orlando trip in a few years at that price! but not if it is a dump or something

It gets mixed reviews, people got it for 25sh on priceline and expedia. It looks nice, but got mixed reviews.
Thing is since we can pay 25 on our own, my dh wont take us all to disney just for that. A resort we otherwise never would have been able to go to is what he's willing. What's doubly frustrating is the other two hotels they listed WERE named & I could have easily gotten those.

I'm going to make an observation. It seems the only constant is that people are searching around in the site.

There seems to be no rhyme or reason to who gets it or not. I've decided that it happens randomly.

Doesn't seem to matter if you clear cookies or not.

Doesn't matter if you sign in between 9 or 10am.

Doesn't matter if you are on for a few minutes or a few hours.

Doesn't matter if you're on the east,mid or west coast.

I don't know ?? I never had it throw me back to the beginning

Maybe try signing in first, then try puting all your info in

I signed in, then put in the info, then it asked me to sign in, I did, but then it keeps prompting me to sign in again.

Maybe I'll create another account?

I am so frustrated, pulled many all nighters.
2 nights ago got the video, but it stopped in the middle with 'promotion ended' even though time was left.

I got video half hour ago & pulled up the 'disney world property' and booked what i thought was the polynesian based on the description... and in the end it ended up being the regal sun.

People can book regal sun on their own for just 25.00 a night. I wanted to try to give my kids a vacation we otherwise would never be able to afford, y'know? But we were told if we cancel it, we still would have used up our chance and we can't rebook any for our house. is this true? i have two computers hooked up to same modem, I can't even use the other computer if we cancel?
I came soooo close, but to do all this for a 25.00 a night hotel according to many reviews is very exasperating.

That does kind of stink. I would probably feel the same way. I read the hotel description you posted on SD, and that's the one for the Poly. Was it listed as a 4.5 star hotel?

Oh I know what you mean, even if I got WDW for a dollar, we can't afford a flight over there right now so we decided if we get this deal we can only try for San Francisco because we can just quickly drive over there for a "staycation," but it would still be fun...I am going to keep trying and refreshing and refreshing...

Good Luck...maybe invite someone else like Grandma or Grandpa and try again booking under their name?

Congratulations!!!

I honestly can say I am thrilled for you!!! This gives me hope because you and I have been at it about the same!!

This is what I keep thinking. W/ my luck our department chair will walk in just as it happens for me!

I'm hoping and praying it's random.

Thanks !!! It's going to happen for you too !!!

Yeah I would make another account and try that ! you did go to the e-mail and confirm it right ??

Even if it's not random, it has only happened once today right?

 

[brandip22]

i got it and then after the first video it kept asking me to log in again and would not work- argghh!

Has anyone been able to do this successfully using a debit card (with Visa logo)?

I got through and used my Debit with a VISA logo. So you are all set to go!

I think it happened earlier this morning too

thanks

 

[Luv2Scrap]

has anyone gotten (or is trying to get) Dec 1-8, or anything with those dates?

if so, which resorts did you get to choose from?

thanks!

 

[PooohBear]

I used my Disney Visa, I didn't know if it would accept my debit card or not


Okay I am out of here ! good luck everyone !!!!!!!!!!!!! may the pixie dust be with you

 

[Disney Darling]

I don't think these rules apply because it's been happening for people at random times throughout the day. One person had 5 minutes one time. Another person had 7.5 minutes. Yet another person had 5 minutes at a completely different time. If you look back through the messages, you'll see people getting them at different times even today. LMT has collectively done more than 15 minutes today.

 

[talulabelle]

I think it happened earlier this morning too

were they 2 - 5 minute slots, do I still have a chance? or were the 7.5 minute slots?

 

[glitzybabes]

Like a bank debit card or prepaid debit card?

 

[PooohBear]

Honestly I don't know ?? never saw the clock, only heard it

thanks!

Has anyone gotten summer months at Disney (July)? Is it better to do less than 7 days? Does the video make sound so if I had my speakers turned up I could hear it or is it just a guided screens? Thanks. I am not giving up!

 

[tinker-belle]

Does anyone know if I have two computers but they are hooked up to the same modem, if that is considered 'one computer'?
