My husband got in instantly but he took his time submitting the information. Got an email today but not top 6. I don’t think it’s based on time of submission.
Got our first choice -- Embassy Suites -- BUT it gave us a king, instead of the two doubles that we picked. I know for the other hotels, this is a typical assignment (king bed + sofa bed for 4 adults), but we purposely picked the 2 doubles and the column on the CCI form even says the king is N/A for "2 adults, 2 beds", and we had a quad occupancy. I've already been on the phone with OnPeak and they submitted a support ticket for us to have it changed, but not feeling confident that will help.
That makes absolutely zero sense and would also be a nightmare for OnPeak themselves. I suspect the CSRs (or their managers, more likely) are making sh*t up again.
We've stayed there -- had 5 at breakfast with no problem.
There's no way they are based on submission time. I had two submissions that I did. The first one accessed at 9:00:59 and was submitted around 9:04. The second one accessed at 9:01:01 but I didn't even start filling out the form until I finished the first submission. The second one was submitted at 9:09:09. Both submissions got MGH.
Got in instantly(my queue waiting screen turned into the bar screen and then to the official form, all within 1-3 seconds). I was on mobile and the time I noticed on my computer was 9:00. Got none of my top 6, got another downtown hotel. My submission time was 9:06 because I didnt have autofill setup on my mobile. I think they changed something this year.
HOW?! I mean, awesome for you. But I got in at 9:05 and my mom at 9:02 and neither of us got anything. There never seems to be any rhyme or reason to this mess.
I *really* want to believe this. But I’m highly skeptical. Why have two waves anyway? Or why not Wave 1 — all downtown, Wave 2 — leftover downtown and the rest?But I’ll cling to that hope.
A lot of these results aren't adding up -- lots of people getting emails and downtown hotels who reported getting in well after those who got in within a minute. The only explanation is that OnPeak and CCI issued incorrect guidance when they said that they rank based on when you got access to the form -- it must be that they're ranking based on form submission.
