Sleepy Kitty grumpy again now - could've slept late instead of getting up so early ....

but at least I did get my order in within the original sale timeframe!

Thanks V4L people for the fabulous sale discount, and for extending the sale so hopefully everyone who wants can get what they want

    I finally was able to place my order this evening but I did not get the option to enter the discount code beatclock2. And I ended up getting charged full price. Order number 276235.
    Is there any way to fix this.

    Thanks,
    dan


    I had the same problem; my order #275869 didn't show the 40% discount, either. I submitted a ticket, so I hope they will fix mine, too.
     
    Not to complicate things, but --

    I was still timing out, presumably because of the DNS change that V4L had to do in order to load-balance. There's a fix you can apply for this, if you're on Windows and are a little tech-minded.

    1. Click on the 'Start' button.

    2. Click 'Run..."

    3. Type the letters -- cmd -- and hit Enter

    4. When the black command box opens, type -- ipconfig /flushdns

    5. You should get a response that you've 'Successfully flushed the DNS Resolver Cache.'

    This will clear out the cache that your computer may be holding, of the old and now incorrect DNS information.

    Obviously, YMMV for a couple reasons. It worked fine for me, though the site is still slow.

    If you can't complete the above procedure or it doesn't work for you, you'll be fine -- You may want to just wait until your DNS info rolls over naturally. and it very much looks like V4L is gong to take care of you as this plays out.

    And it won't hurt my feelings at all if V4L decides to delete this post, as it may load down their server anew.

    Happy vaping, and congrats to V4L for having such a loyal customer base and such a great BF deal that they triggered a DDOS atttack on themselves! :laugh:

    That helps for your computer, but your ISP's DNS also has to refresh. I was sitting at the office for almost 2 hours waiting for mine to refresh :D
