    With regards to that code on the LVA website, I've just tried it for the weekend 14th-17th october and i get an error code:

    We're sorry, but we were unable to identify the code you entered.
    If you want to book a promotion, you’ll find all available promotions here.


    I'm unsure as to how I can book without it directing to the totalrewards website

    Does anyone have any ideas as to why it's not working for me? Thanks

    I also get that error (for the dates i'd already booked which were via. the total-rewards sites)

    my guesses are either:
    a) temporary glitch
    b) offer pulled

    maybe give it another go in the morning? :)

    Flipping banks !!!! And Blinkin' card cloners !! Ratbags the lot of 'em

    I am so glad my plans changed and I'm not out in Vegas this week .
    Last week strange transactions started popping up on my bank statement -Harley Davidson Cafe (twice), PH hotel and a few others all on Strip locations. Looks like my card got cloned when I was out there in May. NatWest fraud department is staffed by muppets -different story every time you talk to them. I am sooooooo angry. Ironically I rarely use my card in Vegas as I'm aware of the risks but Nat West were so slow sending me a new pin in May I ended up having to charge almost everything as it hadn't arrived by the time I left so I couldn't draw cash <sigh>

    I can't even imagine how hard this would have been to sort out if I was actually away at the moment-especially in the place the dodgy charges are coming from !!!

    <rant end>

    Back on topic............

    If anyone is in Vegas this weekend Donny Osmond has a flash mob event going on in the Forum Shops at Midnight -looks like fun !!
    I Would Rather Climb A Mountain Than Crawl Into A Hole

    MSE Florida wedding .....no problem

    yikes - that's awful, duchy...hope that they get it sorted out for you quickly.
    Does remembering a time that a certain degree of personal responsibility was more or less standard means that I am officially old?

    Don't bank on Natwest being quick off of the mark on this one. They pride themselves on being very strict on security, hence it took so long for you to get your replacment pin, and the card reader you have to have for online banking. Yet when it really matters someone drove a bus through the lot of it. Usually they would have let maybe 3 of those transactions go through before putting a temp stop on the card.
    The common law of business balance prohibits paying a little and getting a lot. If you deal with the lowest bidder, it is well to add something for the risk you run, and if you do that you will have enough to pay for something better.

    I've always wanted to be part of a flash mob...or see one happening...now I am sad I am missing this one.

    Less than 2 months for us now...cannot come quickly enough...after the disappointment of not winning Euromillions and all we're very much looking forward to some Vegas time.
