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

[FLAngie]

My boss just left for the day, he looked at my computer and said "are you still trying to win that dollar deal? Well good luck and try to get your normal work done."
My question is did he just give me permission to keep trying?

Sounds like it to me

Why is it that I have been on the board at all the wrong times for 2 weeks. Except for yesterday morning when I was on at the right time and didn't get a video? Never a video. Never. I don't think many of you can say that. Even my fellow losers have seen the video. Does this make me a double loser? If I stayed up all -night nothing. As soon as I would pass out and sleep the board looked like this: "Igot it!, Igot it too! Yea, I'm so excited!" If I stuck at it all day and ignored my kids, nothing. Go to bed, and the board says "lots of winners last night!" Do I sound bitter? Cuz I am, I'm very very bitter! And c88fly got 2 rooms!!!!!!!!!! I would have died for that. What is wrong with me? WHat is wrong with me I ask you!

I am right there with you! I have had the same thing happen to me and I've NEVER seen the video either! I keep missing by mere minutes/seconds!!! It's driving me nuts!

Sounds to me like he's giving you permission as long as you do some work.

So go for it!

I have not figured that out yet...i am verrrry unhappy about it, too. But, i am sure they don't care. The card I used is government issued...a Mastercard. I have used it countless places, including online and it does not have an international transaction block on it. I mean really...plenty of money on it, the names match...i had all the info. put in correctly...no spaces. When that "invalid credit card" popped up...I was freaking out because there was NO WAY I would have time to enter my other card...and i had the other card right next to me as well.....There was just no time. i really would like to question them about it...but how do I explain it...i have no image to send...no real proof that i got in. i bet they have a record of it though....oh well..I guess it's not meant to be for my family....It was our only chance for a vacation too....It's not like I have 3 disney vacation planned and am going for a 4th free one...I know, i am bitter.....and tired....Uuuugh I wish i never heard of this promo.....

I did to so maybe that's why I haven't won. I asked him if it was meant for me to win, then please let me win. Maybe I should have worded it differntly. I guess he has other plans for me.

To all my fellow losers

I have been online for over 27 hours now and after seeing everybody win last night, I need a break and get things done. I will be back later for more torture even though I think they are done.

Good luck

Awww, I feel the same. Seems like 2 days in a row, they ran the promotion time slots only for few hours, all in a clump. For 5 hours each night, I have to get off the computer. Of COURSE that's when they do this again.

BTW, I have never seen a video either. I had to cancel last year's disney vacation (at a GREAT rate!) because I stayed unemployed to care for my terminally ill dad (who passed away just a few days before we would have left for our trip). I promised the kids we'd do it this summer, instead. Now I can't even FIND a job...not enough money in my vacation fund left to take a vacation, so without the free rooms, we're going nowhere once again. I could swing park tickets and food, but not rooms too.

Did you call and ask them why it was considered invalid?

They part that stinks is if you have time to maybe go back to fix it, the videos start playing again so you don;t have time. I possibly would have had time to fix my mistake but the stupid video started playing again.

That sucks you spent all those hours and nothing. I hope you get it when you come back.

Good gracious...where do you people work? I am now a SAHM, but everywhere I ever worked I would have been fired just for logging on the site to book a trip for 5 minutes. I have worked at the most Nazi like companies that hired people to watch our every move. My last job would run phone check reports on my phone to see who I was calling and when and how often. I was pulled in to be yelled at by my boss for rolling my eyes once at a coworker. I can't believe how good you all have it. Even my current employers (hubby and kids) don't like me on the computer.

 

[missfigment]

good morning! Did any one get anything in the middle of the night...besides coffee and maybe 5 minutes of sleep?

You might want to consider those timeshare pitches for a room. I have done this in the past and plan to do it next month for a trip. http://thevacationstore.info/ is one I have used--they offer 6 nights in a 1 bedroom sleeps 4 for $199. Yes--you have to "give up" 2 - 3 hours of a day to do their sales pitch but other than Westgate I've never had a hateful experience.

Plus it has a kitchen which can also cut down on costs.

 

[NeverBeen2DW]

was the video on only once this morning? Arounds 6:20 EST? That is what I get ( I think ) from reading the post from last night/ this morning. If so they do it 3 times a day right? So we have 2 more chances? I have yet to see ANYTHING at all happen on my screen. I have been doing searches on their website too. I am on CST here and I don't think we have hand many people in the Midwest win yet. Right?

I work for a university. I hope that's what's not allowing me to see the video. I still don't get how that whole IP thingy works????? My only consolation is that others have stated that they work at universities too and they've been able to see the video.

Good Morning !

Congrats to the over-night winners !! and for those still trying :

 

[Mickeys.friend]

I did not contact them about why it was invalid....it is a debit/credit card with my name on it, LOL. I even called the bank/issuer later on because it bothered me, and there was no problem. I never contacted LMT because i figured they would not care...I mean really, how many people do you think are claiming the same thing?....not because that's what happened, but because they will come up with anything to say they won. I don't know, maybe I will try later. Funny thing is, i did make a valient effor to go back and enter another card (this time a bank debit with mastercard logo) and because the videos ran again it was futile...ran out of time as i finished the security code.....Just so sad for me, because i really was "in" already....
