Hi all,

I started this thread for anyone who wants to come here for lite discussion, jokes, and just general discussion and fun.

Everyone is welcome!

I was thinking that maybe it would be helpful to keep the original thread to a bit more of a serious discussion of the clues and answers.

This would make the original thread more useful to those seeking serious information and clues without having to read through hundreds of extraneous messages.

So, I hope it catches on !

So pop a beer and pull up a chair and relax !

Is this woman through Corona? They would probably like to know how she's taking people.
She works for the travel agency. Seems like a small operation. Only seems to be 2-3 people who even work there. Surprised that Corona would go so chinzie!!!

They may not know what she's doing, unless someone tells them

Thanks MT.

Start with their FB page, message them through that....what about the email address used when they contacted you that you won......usually in the affadavit papers there is a phone number......why let her rip you off.

Quote from cwhetme :
Im going to Silver Dollar City this weekend. Was supposed to have 2 rooms but tour place messed up. Its from the Corona win I got. Won $3000 in trip vouchers and so far she charged $500 for 2 rooms at the haunted hotel. They said it shouldve been $275. Casino trip was billed at $425 for 2 and the hotel says it only charged $300. Was charged $425 for this trip. Only reason I know how much everything is really costing is because I have had to call them and get them to pay for the rooms when Im checking in because I show up and nothing has been paid!
Added everything together with all trips and out of $3000 I only got $1800. She says she has to make a commission which I can understand but travel agents get a discount to begin with and in my opinion $1200 commission on a $3000 bill is ridiculous! I love Corona but have found out Modello is good too!
Who's making commission on your win? I say BS to that noise. Won't you be getting a 1099 tax form on that win for $3000? You need to Bitch, Whine and Rant on that shit.
