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

[Disney*Dreamer]

Ok I got in and I went through everything with 5 seconds to spare when I pressed the confirm button. When the confirmation came up it was for $974.44 for 2 nights in NYC at the Shelbourne Hotel. Talked to a Suzanne and they are going to call me back on whether I got in in time. My issue is that if I didn't get in on time they will have to credit me fast as I do not havr that amount of credit on my credit card!

I think I would call my credit card, and block any thing from them, so that you don't get charged over limit fees and all. That really stinks that this happened to you.

I got it!!!!! I got in a 3:49 EST. I was clicking around randomly on the site when the box that said the promotion has started popped up. I had to re-enter my dates and information on the hotels page though, even though it had been there moments before. When I got through, there were only values and mods available. I wavered between POR and Coronado for a moment, and went with a King Bed room at Coronado. It took me only about 2 1/2 minutes to complete the process. I printed out my confirmation screen and made a screen shot of it just in case.

Whew! My heart is still beating so hard! I have been debating whether to make a trip for the half marathon again next year and this seals the deal.

One tip I would give to everyone--do a pretend booking and enter all your address information and hit enter without doing your cc info. For me, this saved my name, address, etc., so when I started entering everything, it would show my full name as I had already typed it. I think that saved time and gave less room for error!

YAY!

I just had the Window it was up for like 5 seconds and then said that I have missed it and I can rebook it at regular rate

I just got 5 nights at Coronado Springs in May!! Of course I was hoping for Poly or AKL, but I just wanted something for a couple of days where my kids could go swimming and relax. I do like the pool complex at Coronado and I was able to get a water view. I think POR was also available, but I was so nervous I just chose the 1st thing I saw for a 4*. The video just came on as I sat down at the computer to check on things after driving dd to ballet. Really unreal!

I was messing around on the site much less than yesterday, and wanted to give up so many times! But I just couldn't quit it! Keep trying...I was convinced I wasn't going to get it and I did so there is hope for you too!!!

After standing guard on the computer for 16+hrs yesterday and a couple of hours this morning, I finally walked away. Out of curiosity I just checked this thread and see some success stories!! Now I'm sucked back in!! Especially with the pp, I am looking for 5nights in May at the coronado!!
Congrats to those that got in!

I am hoping that I will have better luck once I get home and start again. I have hope now since it's more random per person. And it seems like more and more people are being able to book.

AARRRRGGGHHHHH!

Ok I just clicked on the site and the dang video came up--I had 5 minutes when the video ended but only 1 hotel which was far from the area I wanted so I clicked the "hotels main page" button and the video started again with over 4 minutes left so I finished the video then went and changed the city and watched the video again (for the 3rd time) and had over 3 minutes left and a hotel I could use came up so I clicked on "Book it" then got the "Sorry the $1 campaign is off" message

WTH!!! I had plenty of time to get it done!!

 

[simonsmom]

all you that have won are making me sooo jealous! I have been on here since Thursday. When you won were you already on the website or did you just sign into it?

When in May?

May 8th - 13th

All of the all-start showed up along with one other hotel....it was either POR or maybe Boardwalk....I was so nervous...I just chose one.

 

[MAGICX2]

Can someone please tell me if the GF is still listed? I have looked through all the 4* and 5* listings for WDW and have found WL, AKL, BW, BC, YC and Poly but no GF any hints on which listing it is?

The thing in bold:
my question is are the people that are getting that message at any point were you guys using/still using the sxipper/enounce or any other program (even if it is disabled)

I uninstalled my programs w/ the fear that I would get it and then be cancelled...maybe, even if you aren't using it (or you are), the LMT site is detecting therefore saying it is off?

Any thoughts?
