It might have worked, if only people from the south east had tried to get one.. Ive noticed that some of the people complaining on here about not getting one, are from Derby, Coventry, etc
GREEDY PEOPLE

Maybe the Midlands folk are allowed over the border control into London very occasionally! I never knew that you had to be from the South East to be allowed into London. When did this law come into force as no one has told my son and he has been working in London for the last 2 years

I don't think it's fair calling everyone else narrow minded...I'm sure if someone else wrote that you would read it the same way everyone else did

Has anyone received their confirmation email? I managed to get through at about 12.30 and it seemed to work but am starting to worry.

I submitted around 12:25 and have not had an email through.

I don;t think this is a cause for worry.

It said we'd get emails "in the next few days" so I think it's a trifle early to start "worrying"...

Looking at the list of restaurants available on the Taste London website, it looks like all Prezzos & Stradas are included, wherever they are in the country (i.e. not just London). Waiting for my confirmation email!

Dear MSE Users

Firstly an apology. Our servers went down, despite testing and having assurances from our hosting company that they would not, at 12:00 midday today. For this we are extremely sorry and are aware that many of you have been sitting in front of your computers for some 45 minutes now, attempting to enter your details. Whilst we are not trying to justify the problems, over 100,000 people attempted to hit the site simultaneously.

The servers are now back up and running, however we appreciate the frustration that this will have caused for you.

Whilst we cannot change what has already happened, what we are going to do it the following:

1) Provide the first 2,000 entrants with free memberships to tastelondon for 12 months
2) Run a 'lottery' for a further 2,000 free 12 month memberships
3) Provide every other entrant with complimentary 3 month memberships to tastelondon, which will expire on 1st March 2010.

So please do continue to enter your details, everyone will win something.

We are sorry again for the inconvenience and hope this goes some way to rectifying them

The taste team.

That's fantastic, thank you very much Taste London for your extended generosity, it's much appreciated and a rare find these days.

Okay thanks for the feedback, I was only slightly worried as I read a post from someone who got one last year and they said they received their confirmation almost immediately.

So, not only has your son escaped from the midlands and taken one of our jobs, he wants to eat our cheap food as well,
thats just disgraceful

If you are worried about him taking your jobs why not join him. His next posting will be in Afghanistan!
