Hipmunk Hotel search problems?
« on: April 19, 2016, 12:07:43 pm »
Hi, i am just wondering if anyone is having a little hiccup with Hipmunk. I saw that this offer is repeatable so I completed 2 days ago and today is the third time repeating it but the credits are still not showing up. Am I doing it wrong? It just said to put your city and search for a hotel, maybe i am missing something.

I am having the same issue.  I have been credited for Hipmunk, but not daily.  I try every day.....do a search, click on a hotel and leave the page open for a while..... sometimes it credits (which is great), most days it does not :(

I have not had issues.  I use Firefox. I do always clean my cookies/browser daily, started that after so much trouble with videos.  I do click on a result and view the details and click book and I let it sit open for a couple of minutes before I close out the pages.

 I hate that I didn't realize for sometime that this was available as a daily offer, I had done it under videos and then found it again one day under offers when I counldn't make 5 cents from videos.  I was beating my head into a wall trying to get 5 cents and this was out there,  lesson learned lol.

I dont see that offer now, but I have had this one before.  Sometimes I have received credit for it and other times I have not.

I just found that offer and I did a search for an area and put in the dates. Then clicked on a hotel.  I checked and I got credit for it.  I am using chrome.

I tried the offer once, but it didn't credit, so I haven't tried it since. I have no idea what I did wrong; I searched for hotels in Richmond for specific dates, clicked on several hotels, and still it didn't credit.

I did not know that Hipmunk Hotel could be tried daily. I have gotten credit for it two or three times total over a period of weeks but there have been other times when I did not get credit. I finally gave up but I might try again.

You have to click on results that you get when you search a hotel.  I go so far as to click on book even though I do not book.

    Not me, I do the Hipmunk Hotel offer every day get my credits for that day. Try different browsers, different computers and different locations. And see what happens!

I use Firefox browser. I have been credited 15 times out of the last 20 days for searching on Hipmunk daily.

I've only had it credit twice, but it's kinda fun, so I try for it almost daily. Oh well, even when I don't get credit, I've seen some hotels in many different cities around the world.

I only had this offer once and I completed it, received credit, although it took a few hours to show up. Even though you can supposedly repeat it, I have never seen it again.

After reading this posting and responses, I thought that I might try Hipmunk again. I used Firefox which was the first time that I used this browser with Hipmunk. I did a lot of comparing and I ended up getting my 35 cents credit. I have gotten credited more than once but not always from this offer.

I have similar results as the other posters here.  Some days I get credit.  Some days I don't.  I guess the best plan is to try every day and see what happens.  I do love looking at the hotels.  It's a fun offer to undertake.  I was credited yesterday.  I don't always remember to clear my cookies first, so think I will try that today.

This showed up for me again today, but only offered 4c, not 35c. So weird.
