While I keep trying the suggested bid strategy everyday, using PRICELINE link, I am looking hotwire and priceline deals....
Today I found the following on Hotwire for U$31/night - total $363.70 + U$80 resort fee due on checkin
3-star Hotel in Walt Disney World - Bonnet Creek area
65% recommended
Amenties:
Free parking,
Free breakfast,
Free Internet,
Smoke-free rooms,
Fitness center,
Pool(s),
Business center,
Self-service laundry..
I know its completelly different from the zones I am biding on, but, for the price / amenities I am really considering get it.
What would be the best guess for this property?
Thanks again
I will send him the links and as soon as I have a win I will post here as a new topic.
Thanks ;)
So far no lucky bidding up to U$42...
I was taking a new look at the express deals and found this one for U$49: express deal
U$7 + than the top bid but includes breakfast, do you think it worth?
Thanks
No, no ad blocker, java is ok also, but, I think now I get why this problem.
When I tried book the way you suggested, w/o login to my account, when I am on the billing address form, it only let me choose US or Canada and my CC was issued in Brazil.
Unfortunatelly I think I wont be able to bid, but I will talk to a friend in the US, He probably can bid to me.
Anyway, thanks for the support here.

Yes, is the same thing here, I just did not pay attention what was the text on the button, but I believe We are looking at the same layout.
I print every step of the way, will answer all questions except the browser... The prints I took on firefox using my laptop, but the scenario is the same on Chrome and Internet Explorer.

No problem, just reported the win on the 1st period in a new topic.
11 hours ago, thereuare said:Please post the win that you already won as a NEW TOPIC as we will use your existing thread for whatever you decide for the 4/13-4/23 dates.
As soon as I have news on that I will post on that topic, for now I will keep trying current strategy..

I assume this is a one-way rental from FLL --> MCO for April 6-9?
No, the car rental will be for the entire period of this trip, from 4/6 to 4/23 and both pickup and drop off will be on FLL airport.
11 hours ago, thereuare said:What bid amount are you entering? If you try to enter the credit card information without creating an additional account, what is the error message that you are receiving when you click the SUBMIT button?
U$12.... the picklist does not show any credit card info, either if I add it again on the page, or if I try to use a saved credt card.. so I cant click in the SUBMIT button because I am unable to fill mandatory data.
Will put a print screen below:
PS: I have 2 Credit cards saved on my account and they are working fine for hotels.
Winning bid was U$40,00 for the Days Inn Orlando Convention Center, using PRICELINE link.
amenities:
Free Internet (in Room)
Outdoor Pool
Non-Smoking
Gym
Restaurant
Handicap Accessible
Business Center
Based on priceline comments I believe parking is free as well.
Very happy because of the location :D and hotel looks decent too.
18 minutes ago, thereuare said:Assuming your PRICELINE bidding was in reference to your Orlando Priceline hotel stay perhaps you could follow-up that thread with the results (or rejection) of your bidding
That Orlando thread it is indeed part of the same travel, but just our 2nd period there. (If you want to merge both threads no problem)
We going to arrive at FLL airport on Apr 06 and head directly to Orlando until Apr 9.
Then We going to a cruise for 5 days and go back to Orlando.
This first period I already won flwing a similar strategy but on the 2nd period stil trying everyday but no luck yet.
I was waiting to disclose that once I succeed on the 2nd period
27 minutes ago, thereuare said:? What makes you think this is not a PRICELINE issue
Because they did not ask for further info about the problem and never hear back from them.. I had to ask again about the issue a few days back, and, again, was the same answer.

Hi.
I am facing a problem when trying to bid on car reservation on Priceline, using PRICELINE link , and also already tried the bidding helper.
The matter is: when I get to the checkout page, where there is a pick list to select a saved credit card, the list does not show any of my saved CCs.
Already tried all 3 browsers I have here, FF, CHROME and IE and same thing goes wrong.
Tried to create an account to my wife and again, same problem.
Even when I try to fill the CC info again, as it was a "new credit card", its not working.
I contacted priceline on facebook about a week ago and all they say is "we apologize, we are investigating the issue"
I am 100% sure problem is not with my info because I am able to use priceline hotel name your own price flawlessly.
I would be very thankful if somebody knows a way to solve this.
The search is to FLL airport from 04/6 6pm to 04/23 7am
Tks!
