Host doesn't want her card to run until tomorrow. I'm assuming it won't at this point in the evening. Anyone know for sure?? I Neeeeed to submit tonight.:bugeye:
 
I'm 99% sure it will run tonight. Because we are notified within an hour of cards are on hold.

Bummer. I need her show for June. Thought since the auto feature didn't work in PP that maybe it wouldn't be till morning. :(

On hold with HO to verify for sure.

After a 25 min. wait Ho said they cannot confirm if the card would run tonight or not. It may or it may not. She also wouldn't say if I waited till say 10 if that would be better. I understand why. I'm sure they don't want everyone waiting till the last min. to submit, but I really needed to submit this show tonight. :(
 
If you are willing to chance holding it until 10 min's before the deadline, you might luck out & it not try to process the cards until after midnight. No guarantee! Check everything first though. Make sure you have all the guest specials added for everyone, all the host benefits used, all the payments entered, etc so you don't get hung up with something that you have to solve at the last minute. ;)
 
*ahem* accidentally put in the wrong number (or wrong exp date) and put it thru. If it goes thru that means they are not verifying them tonite and then in the morning it will go on hold. You enter it correctly then and the show will be 'released for picking' (and ships faster than the other shows b/c it goes right to released for picking).

PUBLIC SERVICE ANNOUNCEMENT: I have never done such a thing! :rolleyes:
 
If they are verifying them, u will know instantly and will just have to figure out then.
 
They aren't verifying them - because I just submitted a show. (YEA! My host from tonight is leaving for vacation, and didn't want to have it open while she was gone! )If you are on Eastern Time Zone, you actually have until 1am to submit shows for HO's 12 midnight deadline. ;)Never mind, I see you're in MO....so that won't work for you!

Thanks...was a good thought and will file that in memory for the future, but didn't write down the cc# so didn't have it to re-enter on-line and didn't want to call the host again (since she was a nightmare to close out in the 1st place!)

I only needed $14 to hit 3,000 so *ahem* took care of that issue and just waited to submit till this morning.
 
Glad you got it to work out for you! :D

UGH!! Submitted host show mid-morning and her card is declined! Guess it wouldn't have mattered if I submited last night after all. Not looking forward to leaving 1,000 msg. for her again. Might wait this one out till after the holiday!
 
(((hugs))) That bites. You've certainly had a rough time with this gal, huh? :(I'd go ahead & e-mail or leave a message today & then follow up on Mon. if she hasn't called you back. That way she can't complain that you waited so long to call her.
