P Please have patience.
A A deal like this requires patience.
T Their websites are overwhelmed, have patience.
I If you have patience, it will pay off.
E Everyone is trying to access this deal all at once.
N Now is the time to have patience.
C C'mon, have a little patience.
E Everyone should take a deep breath and have patience.

lol are you being cynical?

Patience is a virtue that never works with hot deals.

If you get a text from DansDeals that contains the words "hot", "sizzling" or "hurry" then it's open season. Do NOT exercise any patience. I saw this on SD this morning before you shared it with the DDF community and had no problem getting the code. I tried with another account after it was posted, and that's when the trouble started...

What I was trying to convey is this.... If you see that a website is experiencing technical issues, it is in your best interest to wait and try again. I'm not saying to wait a day or a week. Give it ten minutes, twenty minutes maybe an hour. Instead, people are trying over and over and over and over and posting that it's not working over and over and over and over.......

Then again, maybe I'm just not so frantic because I got mine before I posted the deal.....

Ahhh, so this is where you got your name from.  ;D

I still have to disagree. Sometimes when this happens some people get their orders through and some don't. By the time the technical issues are sorted out, the deal is gone. The recent US Mint deal is a classic example of this.

Ya know, I've been thinking..... I admit that $20 for free is found money, but doesn't "time" have a value too? At what point does it become not worth it to KEEP TRYING? If you keep trying now, over and over and over, you are losing the value in TIME. Go do something else that you were planning to do today and come back to this in an hour and chances are you'll be rewarded.
Its the DDF mentality to get a deal, it has nothing try to do with the time or value.

Keep in mind that because of the server issues if you try to place the order online now at best buy and attempt to checkout with visa checkout, it will also give problems.

A bit annoying... When I sign in, it says unavailable, try again. Then when I finally get through, it says to verify identity but (like the person said upthread...) it rejects it.

Tempted to keep going though this is clearly not worth the time.. Here's hoping the servers free up a bit later and it moves smoothly.
Hey there! I am using WhatsApp.

For those that got the code already, is it useable in store?

Well its gone now and I couldn't get in despite trying over 30 times between my laptop and iPhone. Guess I missed this one. They really should just make this like AmEx offers so we don't have to go thru this.
