  • Go on then, has anyone managed to find one @ a quid? I played with the calendar with all sorts of dates and the best was £29, not a single £1 date could I find, and this was from 12.30 on the button.
    I didn't do it, nobody saw me do it, you can't prove a thing! ;)
    Quidco and Topcashback, £4,569
    Shopandscan, £2,840
    Tesco Double The Difference, £2,700
    Thomson EU261/04 Claim, £1,700
    British Airways EU261/04 Claim, EUR1200
  • no more £29 rooms ...
  • i emailed them with a bit of the old verbal:

    hi, i've trued using your shoddy £1 booking service and, every time i check out,
    I keep getting:
    CONNECTION STATUS: Unable to submit reservation
    Invalid_RateType.

    "At first I thought that this was because somebody had booked the room before me,
    but no. Three times I went back to the homepage and resubmitted my reservation
    through the booking service, each time for the same dates. I was only trying to
    book a room for my elderly grandma to come and visit me down in London, but
    thanks to your shambles of a booking service it looks like this will never
    happen.

    thanks you so, so much, Hoxton."


    and then they replied with THIS!!!:

    I am afraid the message you are getting means that all 1 pound rates are gone
    for the requested date. Please try another date or rate plan
    Thank you


    what complete tripe.

    Sorry to say, but you were on the wrong page.. You had to click the "one pound offer" at the buttom of the page it seems.
  • i was on from 12.30 and picked several rooms as i opened several pages. every room was available - go through the process of entering all your details to be told it was an inalid room rate - i rang hoxton hotel to ask why as the room was still showing as available - was informed that it takes 5 minutes for the system to refresh and somebody else was obviously booking the same room. Said it was crazy to advertise a room available and to waste time by entering details to be told it isnt available. sent them a snotty email about how disgusted i am and what a shambles it was.

    Not even a £29 room available now

    I just got my confimation email, so they should start filtering through now, for those who aren't sure if they got a room. :)

    Well done to those who got a £1 bargain, still really chuffed with £29 :)
