Is anybody still up? I just posted this in the borders thread, but I doubt I'll get a response, and I am beyond frustrated! (and tired!)
I am trying desparately after 3+ hrs of getting my cart filled up to actually check out. I keep getting "Please enter a valid billing address". But I'm doing exactly that! I have tried entering ship to store and also ship to personal address and keying in my shipping addy with the billing address same as shipping box checked. I have tried clearing the fields and actually clicking with the mouse into each field. I have tried entering my 5 digit zipcode as well as adding the 4 extra digits the post office adds as a suffix. Can anyone help me figure out what I can do to get this info in?
TIA!!!

Try using a different credit card if you have one? Do you have at least one item in your cart that is over $5? When I added something that cost me at least a few bucks (to get all the other stuff free), it finally worked! HTH!~

edit: I just noticed in the kohls thread someone else is having the same problem. I am guessing the deal is dead or not working temporarily.

Actually, I have 20+ items in there. Most are under $5, but the total cart value is just under $25. I have finally entered my info under my profile to allow quick checkout. Even when I entered my addresses in the profile for quick checkout, the site "suggested" that I take the post office's version. IT WAS IDENTICAL, but Roll Eyes (Sarcastic) . And I had intended to ship to the store for free shipping, but I went in instead and added 2 movies to bring me up to $25 and free shipping to my home addy in my profile. Trying to order...

Stress Why did I start trying to do this deal? Couldn't I just let one go! For the love of GOD!! COULDN'T I JUST LET ONE GO FOR ONCE?!?!?!?!?!!?

Whew! Feel better now! Of course, my order still won't go through. Got past the address errors using the quick checkout method. But now I'm getting this crap:
[ServletException in:/ConsumerDirectStorefrontAssetStore/ShoppingArea/CheckoutSection/StandardCheckoutSubsection/checkoutOrderSummary.jsp] The following error has occurred during processing: "java.lang.NullPointerException".'

I just don't want to give up now!!!!!!!

Computerpunch

I'm fried... I bet you're right and I will check in a few hrs when I have to be up again. Just so irritated that I let myself be sucked in! I even just tried installing safari to see if I could get this through! I got onto borders at 11pm just to check out their pokemon stuff. Here I am almost 5 FR/CKIN HOURS later and I don't even have my order to show for it!

Like I said... Computerpunch and Surrender Borders wins for now...

I think that is what happened to me, I just tried to do a different order and it said "Oops! Our records show that you've already used this promotion, therefore we are unable to apply it to your order." so I checked my GC balance and it is missing the exact amount of my order, but I have no confirmation email Dontknow

This happened to me once. Not with Borders, but with another.
Is your name in the name field exactly the same as on the credit card? that was the problem with mine.
I know, rediculous......but that was what the problem was the one timewith mine.

I finally called cust svc this morning and he said the order was about to be cancelled and the charges (which were pending on my cc just as forewarned above!) would be removed too. I told him how much time I had spent on that order with all the errors and he said he could send me a $10 gc for my troubles. Wish I could buy back the 4 hrs of lost sleep though!!!!

Hope you all are well, and thanks again for all the good advice. wave

Groupwave Congrats!!!

Congrats!! 2 weeks?? Sounds like me, I swear I could get pregnant just walking through the mens underwear department!!
I'm not even going to PM you....you know where this quote is going!!! LMAO

You people have GOT to stop being so funny my siggie changes daily!!!!

Double....hug for you and your family. I'm so sorry you're going through rough times. I did send off the envie of monitor Q's yesterday. Hope that helps a little!

Also, like Trang, I read this chit chat more than the deals thread (haven't read it since Friday) because it is usually shorter to read...NOT TONIGHT!! Faint

As for all the negativity, I just ignore it. That's what they say to do...if you can't say anything nice, don't say anything at all!!! Happy shopping peeps!!!

yes. nod

oh god.. does it really work that much better?

ok.. that's it. tomorrow i'm buying me a $30 giftcard and re-ordering my stuff, because I really don't think how it 'went through' before is going to work. I read paying by giftcard makes it easier. (but first I might try that Opera thing.. LMAO)
I am going to get a Borders G today as well, although 3 of my orders or at least part of them shpped today! My kid loves books, we probbly already have several hundred, I am out of room, not sure where I am going to put them all yet, might have to go to Ikea at some point too.

Oh and I have thrown in DVD's in there as well besides books!
