    There was something in the FAQ's about booking using a partner's name that in fairness to others multiple bookings using this method would be cancelled or something to that effect...

    from their website:
    Can a couple book one night each at a £1?
    Please note that we have limited the number of rooms that can be booked during the sale. Yes you are allowed, as the rules state that you are only allowed to book one room, for one night PER PERSON at a £1. If we find that any individual has managed to book more than 1 room at this rate, we reserve the right to cancel the all bookings and we will notify you that we have done this by e-mail with cancellation numbers.

    I was unable to get one. Do they allow transfers of rooms to other people?

    This was my third time trying with tips from this forum; first two rounds I went straight to the 29pound rooms and was successful on both occasions. This time opted to try the 1pound and scored again. Tried with both a safari and an IE browser; IE was useless, Safari worked a charm. Having returning guest info pre-entered made it easier. Received 4 confirmations with the same conf#.

    I got a £29 room in a couple of weeks time, first time I have had any luck!! Also got 2 confirmation e-mails but both have same reference so not worried. Well done to all those that were LUCKY!!
    I am only trying to help :rolleyes:
  • Yey - I managed to get one too. I stayed last time for a £1 and would willingly pay more to stay again. The hotel and staff are wonderful and it's walkable from the tube.

    Must say - I forgot to click my end date too - took a few attemps, but got there in the end!

    Well done to those who managed to get a room.

    Hi, amazingly (given that i couildn't click on the link for ages and then didn't realise you had to put in your checkout date!) i got a room - i went straight for the £29, on a weekday in July-didn't think I stood a chance of the £1 rooms.
    Then i got 4 confirmation emails!!!!! Hope that doesn't mean they charge me 4 times, ir that they think i made 4 bookings which contravenes their rules?

    Pleased to see a lot of MSER'd have bagged themselves some rooms, you should all get in touch with each other with the nights your all staying and have an MSE get together, lol.

    I can see you all now eyeing each other up, giving each other a nod, somehow trying to figure out if others are MSEr's and trying to put faces to names, lol.
    :TIs thankful to those who have shared their :T
    :T fortune with those less fortunate :T
    :T than themselves - you know who you are!
