Freeride not available
 

Tried to get on several times today with no success. Anyone else having problems? Or success? Thanks!

Tried five times to get on and couldn't so I"m going off to try to earn some Free Sleeping points and Snoring miles! http://talk.flyertalk.com/forum/smile.gif


------------------
MEOW! MEOW! MEOW!!!

Could not get on yesterday and have not tried yet today.

Still out today, but now they are posting an apology for substandard service! To think I was just going to post how wonderfully smooth and easy they'd been at this site. I'd requested two $20. Marriott gift certificates with the understanding it would be 2-3 weeks, and they came in five days!

Can not believe I still can't sign on all day today!

I've been able to sign on and get points since Friday evening.

I noticed that I got credit for the AT&T Worldnet points that were auto-debited from my account (and my credit card was also charged). They have put the points back along with a 500 point apology.

doc ~ How/When did you get Marriot Gift Certificates? Do they still have them ... I must have missed them?!?

Beckles - click on Gift Certficates on the Main Page (after you log on). You can get gift certficates for Courtyard/Residence Inn/Fairfield Inn/Marriott.

Doc: With respect to the Marriott gift certificates from FreeRide--are these for dollars off of any room rate or are they somehow restricted? I couldn't find any detailed description on the FreeRide site.

Got on, finally, late last night!

Beckles - yes, as pgupta011 said- Under gift cert's - The $20. ones are a slightly better deal and the points are easy to come by!

TravelDave- Just like cash as far as I can see! They are a good deal so you book a lower rate and get the points and stay credit!

Which is another reason to consider the FreeRide Visa - no annual fee and appx. 2% rebate towards Marriott certificates.

Incidentally, if anyone has not already signed up at www.freeride.com

It's a pretty decent site and you get points just for visiting too! Cheers!

Edited in deference to CATMAN, No referrals!

A strange but nice thing from FreeRide.

I got a large amount of point credits for problem creditng my WorldNet account with free months service.

Nice apology.

I'm wondering what prompted it. I only e-mailed them three times and called once and got an answering machine.

Now if any of you want to help one of your best Flyertalk buddies earn a few more points... the referral is: Mblancha1

Catman - you missed my earlier message. They have returned you back your points which they auto-deducted from your account but did not forward to AT&T. So essentially you were earlier being both billed by AT&T and having points deducted from your freeride account. So freeride is returning those points back to you, along with a 500 point apology.
