bigredsfan Posted September 18, 2011 Report Share Posted September 18, 2011 for the last couple of days I have tried to access Priceline with no luck, some sort of server error. Had the same issues with this website up until now. Anybody else having this issue? Link to comment
hohogap Posted September 18, 2011 Report Share Posted September 18, 2011 I was able to access PL through the BB PRICELINE link above. No problems from this end. Link to comment

Romelle Posted September 20, 2011 Report Share Posted September 20, 2011 A FT moderator posted this as a possible working link to PRICELINE:http://travelc.priceline.com...home.do?rdr=2I tried it, and it doesn't blow up my computer or else anything scary. Just took me straight into Priceline. Romelle Link to comment

Romelle Thanks Did not work eitherI have tried different browsers, different computersI guess I will give up for nowI just hope my car rental was paid for by PL Link to comment
Romelle Posted September 20, 2011 Report Share Posted September 20, 2011 kitty28 and others with this problem,Maybe you could post which browsers you used? ISP? And whether you were on Macs or PCs. There are only a few reports of people having problems. Maybe there is a common thread among them. Many years ago there was a PL glitch that kept Mac users (me and others) locked out for quite a while. I'm on a Mac, Comcast ISP, and using Internet Explorer. While Priceline was really slow in the late part of this morning, I was able to get on and eventually got responses to my bids. In the afternoon it was working smoothly.RomelleThose free public library computers might work? Link to comment

kitty28 Posted September 20, 2011 Report Share Posted September 20, 2011 Well more problemsSeems I have to clear my cookies to get into PL unfortunately it clears all my other sites too :) What a PITAI think Rogers was hacked as all weekend we were getting loads of spam even from ourselves ..all with Rogers.com addresses Link to comment
Romelle Posted September 20, 2011 Report Share Posted September 20, 2011 Kitty, you probably can get into the cookies and clear just those with the word "Priceline" in them. I'm no pro, but know I have to get into the Help function of my browser to get instructions. Romelle Link to comment
micheline Posted September 21, 2011 Report Share Posted September 21, 2011 Yes I'm in Canada with Rogers. So frustrating! Link to comment
kitty28 Posted September 21, 2011 Report Share Posted September 21, 2011 Thanks RomelleI forgot about that optionDeleted the cookies that way still no luckI did manage to get 1 bid in before I was knocked out again :) I think the Rogers IP is blocked from PL because of the spam that hppened on the weekendWill try again in a few daysGood luck to all Link to comment
thereuare Posted September 21, 2011 Report Share Posted September 21, 2011 PRICELINE is aware of the issue... as this ISP related, there is nothing that can be done from a local computer to bypass the issue.It will require a bit of patience, or if short on time, try to use a computer which uses a different ISP (library, coffee shop, etc)Please use the PRICELINE and HOTWIRE links on the board to begin your travel purchases.

kitty28 Posted September 22, 2011 Report Share Posted September 22, 2011 Seems to be working OK againgot in twice today YEAH Link to comment
bigredsfan Posted September 24, 2011 Author Report Share Posted September 24, 2011 you guys can thank me for Canada, LOL. I went through 3 days of this with Rogers Tech Support and for whatever reason inadvertently blocked priceline Canada Wide. Yes, Canada. A few tickets were sent down I spent hours with them wireless and wifi, and finally a day ago or so they called us to let us know the situation is solved.All seems pretty right now, but not perfect. Had a few issues today but refreshed and got in. Now, I just need to win my bid for Buffalo!Good luck to you guys in Canada finally! Link to comment
EDBSO Posted September 27, 2011 Report Share Posted September 27, 2011 I also had a ticket in with Rogers. They said it was a DSN problem on their end. Claimed it was fixed 2 days ago but on and off yesterday. Today solid connection to PRICELINE BUT NO ROGERS EMAIL!!!!Any recommendations for a good ISP in Ottawa? Rogers sucks big time!!!
