(which I wont because I cant afford it)

Thats what happened to the Hanna Montana tickets, these companies scooped em up and a normal family couldnt get any.

It sucks....

But, I hope you allmake some money at it, at least someone should make a few bucks.
Is this"ticketpulling" for scalpers and greedy companies for their giveaways?

How pathetic.

From how it was explained to me, people pay them to find tickets for them instead of fighting the crowd to get them themselves.... I'm not sure where to order their services though, because I've been wondering about this myself... maybe I'm just gullible and want to believe the best about people [img]smileys/smiley36.gif[/img]. At any rate, I figure if they are doing it anyway, I might as well profit from it. GL to the ladies today during the pulling session!

Just finished my first session. I was all excited because I was able to find seats in the sections they requested on my first try, and I was told to hold them. I watched the count down and let them know when 1 minute was remaining, like our instructions say, but then I was never told to advance past billing. *shrug*

I think maybe they have different chat rooms, and there were other ppl working the same show. Maybe those ppl got the tickets first. Admin said they reached the number of tickets they needed after about 15 mins, but no one in my room had gotten any.

Oh well, better luck next time! Edited by: Jess111

wsieving , I just realized I was not signed into AIM or Skype. Now, our instructions do not say we need to be, but maybe that is where they give us the security code and such to purchase?

well, i wasn't either. I still haven't downloaded aim, but the admin just pm's you when it's time to buy. You know he is pming you because in the chat room it shows up as blue text. I'm sorry you didn't get it today, but it looks like you had a better start than I did! This was my 3rd session but my first sale. Don't give up!

Wow, that's great Wsieving. Congrats!!!!

It sounds like you ladies are having a good time. I never did hear anything either way, no rejection email either. But, I'm glad someone was able to give a report on how it all works, and that they actually made a sale and profitted. At least we now know some money can be made from this and what to expect, should we get hired in the future. Keep updating us & giving us hope.

Good day all.
