New Hotel Thread Here The First One Reached Its Limit-READ 1ST POST IMPORTANT INFO

[PooohBear]

I feel everyone's pain, believe me I do ! I was here Thursday night until Friday morning, then on Sunday I practically kicked my guests out after the Superbowl to jump on here and research... from then on I sat here for 26 hours..... yeah that's hard to admit but it's the truth !!

Was I upset.... heck yeah !!! but lesson learned and I refuse to dwell on it or let it ruin me, I am going to move on and say lesson learned ! no matter how many e-mails and phone calls any of us put out to them, it's not going to do diddly squat unfortunately

So did anything happen yesterday? I was on until about 3 just because I was on the computer anyway. Is it over?

 

[caribear]

Let's hope LMT clears this up today and rectifys the situation. I know that this is a promotion and no one is guaranteed anything....but it would be nice if they honored the deal and let everyone have a chance of "winnning" a hotel stay. I know I am being very optimistic, but after staying up for 27 hours I do no have the energy to be angry.....just upset.

Hi all! I cou'd've sworn that when I logged onto LMT there was a light blue box & in it it said the $1 promotion is over. My friend didn't see it. AM I loosing my mind? Did anyone else see it?

It's been fun, but I can NOT stay on the computer all day today. Have a good day everyone!

Good morning all! So is the $1 promo over? I left last night at 10:00 MST.

 

[PooohBear]

I'm actually glad to have my life back !


I hope everyone has a great day ! and congrats again to those who got rooms !!!!

 

[tinker-belle]

omg that is terrible- what a ripoff

I had a few seconds left, but same thing happened to me.

 

[chris1gill]

Apparently it just went off at 10:11 for some, I tried at 10:14 - nothing, no video, no nothing

 

[minniejack]

ran my virus and guess what there's Trojan virus that has to be manually removed.

I knew I wasn't crazy. I did see a pop up on the site. I copied this from LMT over at FB. Here's someone's post

I got this pop up this morning on the LMT site: Sorry, The World for 1$ campaign is off. Please feel free to book with us on our regular reduced price and stay tuned for our next special campaign. To get hints to our next campaign schedule please sign up for our hints newsletter on the The World for $1 page.

Ok, good morning ladies and gents.

I was on until 3:52 a.m.I was here when someone posted they changed their rules. But, I kept pressing on. I should have stopped right there. I have no auto refresher, but I kept getting error messages saying I am cheating. I had to type some code to then refresh the page. As, my last refreshing of the page. I get a pause, and a video pops up. With 3:46. I type everything, in another video, then a survey. Then, promotion is over message.

At 3:52. I decided my sanity was worth more than getting a dollar room, or dealing with this company. After wasting about 58 hours to get in on this deal. I decided enough was enough.

I wake up this morning, and now my computer is acting reallll slow. I am now running a antivirus. To make sure my computer was not compromised. This company. Any kind words escape me.

That's the message you get when the clock runs out.

My hubby just got the video at home. He wasn't able to book the room before time ran out either.

I just emailed them to have them remove my email from their system. They promptly responded and removed me but then 10 minutes later I get this in my email!


I’ve been around the world – a JetSetter of sorts – and I’m here to spill my Last Minute Travel secrets. I’ve been told I’m a know-it-all, so, ready or not, here come all my travel tips, like how to get a deal and when to look for a steal!

Don’t worry, I’ll watch for the Last Minute deals and keep you posted! Until next time!

I'm out of this promotion and it did say at the bottom of the screen to unsubscribe and hopefully I am all out now! Thank goodness I never gave them my credit card number!

 

[Karlzmom]

just got off the phone with carrie at LMT she says as far as they know the promo is still on. She says it was run yesterday at 11:30pm Pacific time. Management has not told them that the promo is cancelled

I'm sorry, but that's cr*p! There were several of us here [btw, had a great time waiting w/ya'll] and refreshing away....never saw anything and some poor souls who could see it weren't allowed to book!

 

[Karlzmom]

Found this on Bargainfinds.net, posted this morning:

Recap: some people did see the videos play last night, but none were able to book. It appears LMT now assigns tokens to sessions, and only if your session has a token will you see the video/clock. This has changed the contest significantly and will make it such that alerting each other will be pointless.

gee...could they have informed us that the rules were changed in this fashion? I'm not disputing their legal right to change the rules, as they clearly reserved the right to be jerks along the way and change the rules multiple times while the promotion was running, but it seems that WE should have been given the info to make decisions about whether or not it was worth it to play.....

Good morning! Sorry to all who stayed up last night and still didn't get it. I quit about 8pm. I wanted to spend some time with DD before bed and Monday nights is Jack Bauer night. It was a tough decision, but Jack won out. I'm glad now that it did.

$1 deal sounds so good. And I think I read either on here or on SD about someone who has actually already used their reservation and everything went fine. So those that got it are probably ok. At least if there booking is coming up soon. I was looking at farther out in the year like September or October and now I'm not so sure I would have wanted to bank my families hopes for a vacation on it. It sounds like the promo has gotten really screwy here at the end.

For those who chose to continue on, good luck! I'll follow the thread and maybe check it here and there, but I won't be tuned in like I was before. The chances are just too slim now.

Was anyone able to successfully book last night or early this morning? It sounds like some people got the videos but no one actually got a room. I still have the site up today but have barely refreshed at all...it's probably not even worth it. I'm glad I went to bed when I did last night!

 

[minniejack]

now I'm just wasting time by having to check my Symantec virus remover Trojan.Brisv.something something something'm

will never use them
