Hotel Code up for 2011 event!

deanaoxo - 14-12-2010 at 07:35 AM

Please please go to this link: Buffalo Bills Hotel Page and use the hotel code to book your rooms.

Booking your room using the code is the only way we are counted. While there may be ways for you to save a few dollars, you will not help the event.

The only way we are able to do this at the level we do is through deals that we make with vendors like the hotel. This allows us to bring in people from far away that we want to rub shoulders with, and gives the staff a place to meet.

Please help us to help you (Freeman sub quote)and be counted!

Use the code!

P.S. You can now use it any time, it just will only apply to rooms from monday to sunday, but will show the hotel that our people come to their hotel.

thanks, Aoxomoxoa~!~

Invalid Code

Just tried to reserve the room and the agent said their codes are usually a 7 digit code. SC0311 came up as invalid. I see that people are getting registered for the event which I already did today, but wondering how to get the hotel code through their system.

SCA0311

My bad, and big thanks to you. You must be the first, or else no one is letting me know.

Folks, please let us know if you ever have a problem with anything that has to do with the event.

The hotel is crucial to the success of our event. Using the Hotel Code is the only way they know we are there. Without it, we do not get counted. The more room nights we book the more credit we build up with the hotel, the lower the rates, the more rooms we get to block out for us.

Please help the event by using the code and please let us know if you ever have a problem.

I can be reached at 831-345-5957 just about round the clock!

thanks Bobby!

They recognize that code but it doesn't seem to be set up. She could not book my room on the code and there is just a memo to contact my group leader. Makes it sound like we are going to a Trekkie convention but we are who we are! Daddyo dean is indeed listed as our group leader.

BeamerBob - 13-1-2011 at 03:45 PM

It's all worked out. I have reservations booked under the code.

The code is SCA zero 311

Bladerunner - 13-1-2011 at 05:51 PM

Dean,

deanaoxo - 13-1-2011 at 07:35 PM

I noticed part of the registration fee is including insurance, I take it this is insurance for the event and not personal insurance in case of an accident...

PS we are booking Buffalo Bill too now whoop whoop, but cannot book online, and dont fancy phoning from the UK...???

BeamerBob - 17-1-2011 at 12:20 AM

I'm sure the insurance is to protect the event from liability in case someone gets hurt. I've got you covered on your reservation. Confirmation number sent :thumbup:

deanaoxo - 17-1-2011 at 02:01 PM

I'm really not sure what the problem is, you can use skype if you can't afford the international call, but if it's sorted, no worries.

Thanks again Bobby!

BeamerBob - 19-1-2011 at 07:55 PM

$23 for every night except Saturday which is $47. My 4 nights are like $129.

Craig Sparkes - 20-1-2011 at 12:48 AM

It was 29 down to 23! Not sure on weekend normal price!

vwbrian - 23-1-2011 at 06:10 AM

Code is not working for me??
SCA0311

Craig Sparkes - 23-1-2011 at 06:24 AM

You have to ring to do it i think! I rang and booked up this week no problem?

BeamerBob - 23-1-2011 at 08:33 AM

Yes, you have to do your reservation over the phone and the "0" is a zero in the group code.

deanaoxo - 23-1-2011 at 01:31 PM

Did it work? Were you successful?

As far as i can tell by the posts and the two people that i have helped, the code works fine.

deanjordan at gmail dot com gets me quick and i'm here to help, but i have to know. I try to check here everyday but don't always manage to.

Please let us know what happened!

just made my res and it worked fine.

1 note I will add is let them know from the beginning of the conversation that you have a room code. It will make things much easier and faster for you.

see all you buggers in a few weeks

deanaoxo - 25-1-2011 at 07:54 AM

Still have not heard from VWBrian....

Did it work? Did you use it???

Code works fine The only thing, all the discount is before the 31st. I paid around $150 for 31 March to 4 April. Just a heads up for others:singing:

BeamerBob - 27-1-2011 at 04:30 PM

I got the rate of $23 on April the 1st and $47 for Saturday the 2nd. I'd check back with them to see if they can correct it for you. That rate applied when I registered me and when I did Popeye's registration.

kiteboyza - 27-1-2011 at 04:53 PM

I asked him twice, that was it

deanaoxo - 27-1-2011 at 04:56 PM

Working on this one now.

We will get this fixed. They told you the wrong story.

There is a discount, it is what is posted on the site, we have a contract.

Please, please email me when you have a problem, or phone me.

I will call them asap and work it out for you.

They have an all new staff on Res's and are screwing it up royally!

thanks, and apologies! thanks also to US 88 for the heads up to yours truly!

Not sure what this means. Does it mean, you asked twice at the switchboard?

There are technical difficulties with their switchboard, it seems everyone there is in training.

We are working on the problem, we will post here when it is solved and also send out an email to everyone.

I sincerely hope they have this all cleared up tomorrow on Friday.

kiteboyza - 27-1-2011 at 06:12 PM

I mentioned the code and discount, asked him are you sure and then just ended up paying whatever he asked

exert from my confirmation



Room Rate Info
Date Rate inc Tax Nts Total Info
03/31/2011 $25.76 1 $25.76 Group Rate

04/03/2011 $32.48 1 $32.48 PREV RATE-ALL HOTELS-RNET
Total: 4 $156.80

deanaoxo - 28-1-2011 at 11:10 AM

So, what a crazy couple of days.

The Hotel is now managed crazily because it is owned by 94 banks and the res desk is in Reno!

Be that as it may, the rates are locked at $23 per day, except Saturday which is $47.

If for any reason, you get the run around, let me know.

If you already booked, call them back, and ask them to take a look at it and make sure it reflects the rate i just quoted.

Those are technically single rates, so keep that in mind.

We have great rates this year, so please book now and book early in case i need to add more rooms! It's really hard to add them at the last minute.

Again, let me know in email if you have problems. deanjordan at gmail dot com!

aoxo~!~everyone~have a great weekend, hope you catch some wind!

I can understand how you could have a problem "eh" hole! They don't speak Chinglish this close to the Mexican border :rolleyes:
and they definitely do not understand Dutch-inese

nocando - 28-1-2011 at 03:27 PM

but fun is yet to come can they understand OSTRALYAN especially when we talk quickly

kiteboyza - 31-1-2011 at 08:18 PM

I speak Safricaans, not to be confused with Ozzie or Kiwi, i can also speak to the Nederlanders and they can understand me
