Coincidence or is the gravy train over?
As per my earlier post about it going online, I did suggest this could be a possible outcome

I'm hoping it's the start of a whole new gravy train! Kinda weird that new prizes were just recently added to Club Live and there was absolutely no notice of the discontinuation of LSC. I'm hoping for these reasons that our LSC accounts/tickets will be transferred to Club Bing accounts and hopefully they will have much the same games and FF mile prizes as LSC. I'm trying to be optimistic! LOL!

EDIT: Now it looks like LSC is back? strange! However, none of the games are working. I did manage to make a redemption though.

Site is back up.

Earlier, they said they were "down for maintenance."

I got the "down for maintenance" message the first time. The second time I tried, I got a new web page with the message "Club Bing...Coming Soon". Now it shows the LSC page but none of the games work. I'm hoping they are transitioning the games, prizes and accounts/tickets to a new "Club Bing".

I had to login a couple times before things started working, but I'm back to Flexicon now and earning tickets.

Just cashed in for 2500 miles. Let's see if it actually shows up.

Let us know, Paul.

I'm waiting for 2500 miles from tickets redeemed 23 April.

Everything seems to still be essentially the same, but with Bing.com graphics. I suspect they have been uploading the changes when you could not access it earlier.

However, all my account information remains the same, so it does not appear the one-per-household redemption clock has reset.

Me too from April 24. My 2500 mile redemption (first one) disappeared from late December. I'm going to be really ticked off if this one disappears in a black hole too.

The diamond crusted, platinum inlayed, golden goose was slain, de-feathered, battered and deep fried in December.

This is just the silver-plated version getting cooked...

Indeed... Just now, there's no way to daily max two accounts tickets in 25 minutes any more...It will take over an hour using any of the anagram games -- which imo are the only other games to possibly get your 1000 tickets (technically it was 1039 tickets with Picture this) per account per day. Every other game would take a full 8 hour work day or more

Other thing I've noticed. None of the prizes I've ordered since April (early April) have even been delivered (or indication of being shipped) yet.... so who knows if they're even giving you your prizes any more.
