conorbill Posted January 29, 2005 Report Share Posted January 29, 2005 Booked the Hyatt, a 4* in downtown Calgary for 2 nights in early February for $90. Opened my bidding at $70 and was turned down, rebid based on its feedback and got it for $90. Awesome savings verus the regular rates and very good considering Calgary is booked solid most of the time for some reason.NOTE: Used a Canadian Royal Bank Visa card and was able to use the Priceline system by follwing the tips I found on this site (entering the full billing address on the second line of the address field and using a fake city / zip code when requested).

thereuare Posted January 29, 2005 Report Share Posted January 29, 2005 Thank you for sharing your winning bid and results with the board. Seems to get a good HOTEL REVIEW from one of our members.Can you tell us the actual dates of your stay?Did Priceline suggest raising to $90 after your $70 rejection? If so, these counter-offers can almost always be under-cut. This post discusses this in more detail: PRICELINE SUGESTS PRICE TO PAY.Thanks again for the post and have a great stay! Please use this HOTWIRE and these PRICELINE LINKS: HOTELS, CAR RENTALS, and AIRFARE to begin your travel purchases Link to comment
conorbill Posted February 3, 2005 Author Report Share Posted February 3, 2005 Didn't have time to use rebids, so I just used the suggested rebid price. Dates were January 30 and 31st. Link to comment
