I am also from Norway, and my VISA did not work on Priceline.com, or Priceline.co.uk. You might try MasterCard (I've read about others that had better luck with this card), or do like me, use the Hong Kong based Priceline (priceline.com.hk). They will accept your VISA. You will bid in Hong Kong dollars, but that is no problem. 100 Hong Kong Dollars is about NOK 84,- Best Regards TommyL

First bid $42 rejected. Added Downtown, second bid $45 accepted. Regards TommyL

Hi. Got the Grand Vista Hotel, Grand Junction, for HK$250 (appr. US$32) from Priceline Hong Kong. Doesn't seem too good according to Tripadvisor, but it's cheap. Regards TommyL

SUCCESS! Priceline.com.hk accepted my Norwegian VISA card! So now i currently reside in Hong Kong :) Thanks for all your help! Best Regards TommyL

Will try the mentioned sites. Also been thinking of getting an AMEX for a while, so I might just do that now. Thanks for all your help! Best Regards TommyL

Unfortunately, it didn't work for me.....Priceline accepted a bid, but would not accept my VISA card....too bad :)

That sounds great, thanks guys! I'll give it a try soon, will report back with results :)

Hi! I would like to try this method myself, with my Norwegian VISA, but there is one thing that concerns me.... Could there be any problems upon check-in at the hotel, given the fact that your ZIP code and City is not correct? Also I'm fairly certain that they will hear that I am a non-us citizen... :) Best Regards TommyL
