BiddingHELP Customer Testimonials

"You answered my prayer! I learned about Priceline, checked it out and it was just too confusing for me. But with your help, I was able to book for $45 each for two rooms, pre- and post-cruise. After I paid I checked my dates on the hotel web site and the rooms were $218 per night. You saved us $173 per room per night! Now I know I will be relaxed for the whole week, very beginning to very end.

"So many people have begged you for help, and you always have the total knowledge of what is needed to get the job done. WE ARE ALL SO GRATEFUL. Your knowledge goes far and wide beyond cruising. Business, pleasure, emergency travel--I recommend you to anyone who wants reduced prices without all the work and confusion!"

"If it was not for you I would have never even considered Priceline bidding. Prior to you I thought Priceline was too good to be true. But through your knowledge and guidance, I was successful."

"Bidding on Priceline can be an intimidating experience if you are not sure of the all the bidding 'ins and outs.' My first experience with Priceline and Amber was in December 2002. We were going to the Orange Bowl in Miami and had no luck finding hotel rooms. We wanted to stay in Ft. Lauderdale on the beach and the few rooms that were available were at a astronomical rate, and not necessarily in the nicer properties. Working with Amber, we mapped out a bidding strategy that proved successful. We stayed at the Marriott Harbor Beach Resort January 1st-January 3rd, for a rate of $90.00 a night. The rate for this property during this time period was $400.00 a night. We saved approximately $620.00 for these nights. I will definitely use BiddingHELP for future hotel needs. Thanks BiddingHELP!!!!!"

"Thank you so much for your assistance and expertise in using Priceline. When I first tried to use the Priceline site I was very confused and quite frankly intimidated fearing that I would make a big mistake. I could picture myself being charged too much or being given a room in a location far from what I wanted. Your patience and knowledge helped me to bid properly and overcome my doubts about bidding for a room. I'm happy to say that we just returned from our trip and saved a total of over three hundred dollars on the two rooms that we booked for two nights. Thanks again for all your help."

"I can't thank Amber enough! Because of her help, I can now confidently bid Priceline. I have saved literally hundreds of dollars on hotels with only my first few bids. She walked me through my first bid, step by step. She was very patient and even made the process fun. I can now bid on my own with certainty and I'm no longer intimidated by the process.

"I recommend her service without reservation and think you will be pleased that you also placed your confidence in her. She really knows her stuff!"

"Living in the UK I was probably more wary than most about using Priceline - to me it was a new and alien concept. Amber's reassurance gave me the confidence to make a bid, and her expert guidance led me through the minefield of zones, free rebids and bonus money which can overwhelm a newcomer to this method of booking. My first attempt resulted in booking an excellent 3* hotel in Fort Lauderdale for $55 including full breakfast (rack rate $130). Thus emboldened, and again with the invaluable help of Amber, on my next visit I was able to secure a 5* beach hotel for $95 (rack rate $230) Both these rates were lower than the cheapest available 2* property I was able to find through the normal channels.

"I have no hesitation in recommending Amber and BiddingHELP to anybody who feels at all wary about using Priceline."

"I had no idea about the "decoding" of the hotels on Hotwire and Priceline until I worked with you. I took your advice and got exactly what I was looking for. We saved half off the price of the regular reservation we already had for Embassy Suites, FLL, and our Airport Hilton, FLL, was obtained for 35% less than the cheapest price available elsewhere!"
– Judy (Marmarjudy@aol.com)

"I would strongly recommend to all travelers the valuable and reliable information that you will receive on this site! I have used tips and recommendations many times from Amber, and as far as I am concerned, she is an expert in the field of travel (especially in securing online bids through Priceline)! Do yourself a favor and let her knowledge and experience save you an incredible amount of research time! You'll be glad you did!"

"I recently was trying to book a hotel room for 3 nights precruise and one night post cruise in April for my wife, 2 sons, and myself. Went to some websites and the prices were rather high. I had read about Priceline on Cruise Critics message board but had never used them before. Just wasn't sure about getting a hotel that I might not want but had to pay for and could not cancel. There were many posts on this topic from Amber, so I went to several bidding message boards to get some help. I read the instructions, but still had a few questions. So I emailed Amber and she responded very quickly with some suggestions and bidding strategies. She did not know me from a hole in the wall, but took the time to assist me several different times, since it took me three separate bidding cycles to get both hotel periods that I was looking for. She was very encouraging and helpful during this whole bidding process. I can only imagine the success that she will have helping others to bid on her new website, BiddingHELP.com. If anyone can assist you regarding bidding on hotels it will be Amber."

"Amber is the most knowledgeable person I've come across regarding any and all aspects of the travel industry. Look no further as she provides accurate, detailed information regarding destinations, ports of call, cruise ships, air travel, car rental, hotels, ship cabins and all other aspects of travel about which a person might seek information. I've seen her tirelessly answer the same questions hundreds of times to ease the anxiety of both first timers and seasoned travelers. She must surely spend countless hours researching every aspect of the travel industry as there is nothing she can't provide quick accurate information for.

"Place your faith in the information she provides and you will be on your way to a safe, relaxing vacation knowing you are prepared and got the best value for your dollar available."
– Pam (pamwinn@bellsouth.net)

"Amber has always been an excellent source of succinct, accurate information and assistance to those in need. Her assistance has always been well thought out and easy to understand. I highly recommend her as an information source!"

"I was a Priceline Novice until I came across Amber. Priceline is still in its infancy in the UK and I really did not know where to start when looking for a pre-cruise hotel in Fort Lauderdale. But thanks to Amber I learned rapidly and now have the confidence to bid, for hotels at least. Her advice to me and the advice that I have seen her give others has been most valuable and it is obvious from the answers she gives that nothing is too much trouble for her and that she enjoys helping people. I wish her well in her new venture."
– Peter (Peter.Carey@btinternet.com )

"Thanks Amber for the assistance in my recent booking on Priceline. After finding very high rates from hotels in the Fort Lauderdale area for the dates we needed, I was about to give up and reserve it at the full price. With your help, I was able to book the hotel in the area I wanted and you saved me over half of the going rate that I could find anywhere else. Saving well over $100 is my idea of a great value. I would highly recommend your expertise to anyone."
– Sue (Toto2Adam@yahoo.com)

"You were very helpful last fall when we were getting ready to take our daughter to Harvard. We needed information on what hotels were in the Worcester, MA area and what price we should bid. I had never used Priceline.com and you gave me valuable information."
– Connie (cdlewis@prodigy.net)

"Although I am quite new to the Cruise Critic website Amber has been right there with any information I have needed. My first cruise she came through with all kinds of advice for me, from how to work Priceline.com (being Canadian there are a few tricks) to advising on some of the sights to see while doing the Western Caribbean tour. I would strong recommend her to assist you with any of your planning needs."
– Joanne (j_carlyl@telusplanet.net)

"The concept of Priceline had always been appealing to me but ignorance made me afraid to try it. It wasn't until I started reading information by Amber that I decided to give it a try. She is so knowledgeable about how the system works (not just Priceline but many of the other online bidding sites) and her responses are well thought out and easy to follow. More importantly they get results!! Using her advice, I was able to get pre- and post- cruise hotel rooms during January in Fort Lauderdale for 1/4 of the stated room rate. I would definitely use Priceline again but you have to be an educated consumer. I'm too lazy to educate myself but Amber's help is all the education I need. Thank goodness for Amber and BiddingHELP.com. What a great find!!"
