    I'm having the same problem, checked my klout score and its 49 so think it may just be the age of the account. Think ill just keep trying every few days.

    I didn't even know what a Klout score was but google being my friend.
    what should my Klout score be to be accepted to play with all the cool kids? :)
    Does remembering a time that a certain degree of personal responsibility was more or less standard means that I am officially old?

    I'm not sure but it was mentioned on a few threads I read about social rewards so thought it was worth a look.
    It's a disappointment every time it says 'sorry you don't meet our requirements'
  • We're back! :D Had a brilliant time, not too jet lagged actually (touch wood!), will put a trip report up soon when I get my brain back into gear properly!

    Flight was delayed about an hour and a half on the way out, and the inflight entertainment wasn't working, a lot of people weren't at all happy about that, luckily we had our iPads, but ome people didn't have any other form of entertainment....we got offered a drink as compensation....

    We ate and slept much better on this trip, so actually had some energy this time around....I'm sure we more or less survived on red bull & Doritos last time around, so to actually be able to enjoy the food and eateries was good, and the beds at the PH were really comfortable.

    Will do a full trip report shortly!

    I've just ordered a Fxcard and loaded £700 onto it, i feel better doing this as we have a bit of our cash on a card otherwise would have taken loads more in $$$$.

    Anyone used one of these? Is it literally the same as a normal debit card? ie we can use it for drinks etc up bars and restaurants!?

    To late now i guess if I've already loaded it :P I have faith in Martins advice haha

    Well it was 21 on Monday and suddenly shot up. A retweet from someone with a lot of followers seems to have helped but they are few and far between.

    Can use it everywhere - we carry a couple and use it for everything from Starbucks to hotel bills :)

    Thanks for the kind offer, I think we would probably rather stay right on the strip though (it is the other people's first time to Vegas so I think they would prefer to have it all on the doorstep)
    I'll race you from the corner of LVB and Flamingo. You can stay in any hotel except for Bellagio, Paris, Caesars or Flamingo and I will be in my room before you ;)
    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.
