Is it possible to split the Bonus Cash (refer-a-friend promo) to different bookings or is it just for one booking of five nights? Cant find anything at the website but maybe my english is just to bad :)

thanks

Nein.

I just booked 3 nights, using $20 per night of $100 or $60. My Rewards now shows no bonus left.

Sorry,
Romelle

Another idea. I wonder if after one has bid on a hotel and used part of the bonus, one could continue and bid on a car and get to use more of the bonus?

I logged out after bidding on my hotel and getting the bonus, but am at least going to first try coming back in on the bid information where sometimes it asks if you also want a car or to extend your hotel nights. I'm guessing that won't work, so then I'll try at least an email to PL asking about a way to use the rest of the bonus money.

You can't split the bonus money, it must be used on a single purchase.

But this is a good time to remind others how you can still use your Bonus Money and use our PRICELINE links:
1) click our PRICELINE link
2) to the MY PROFILE >> MY REWARDS link near the top right of their home page
3) use the Bonus Money link in the 'my rewards' section of your profile to begin your bidding.

Thanks.

I did try to go back in and see if I could retrieve the rest of my bonus, starting with my bid receipt. Didn't work.

Sent PL an email asking if there was any way I could retrieve the remaining $40 of my $100 bonus, since my 3-night bid had only used it at $20 per night ($60). Promptly got an email back tellin me to call "Customer Care".

The person at Customer Care told me it was a one-time deal only good for hotels at a max of $20 per day. No saving some for later, and no applying to auto rental bidding.

While I had been told via an earlier call that the $100 would simply be subtracted from the total of my bid, this person was totally sure it only worked at the $20 per day basis.

Still, the bid without the bonus was so good, I really don't have a gripe coming. And with the bonus that was applied, I feel like Istole the room.

And I did start with the BB PRICELINE link.
