Even I wish this wasnt limited to one person or atleast the prizes were transferable but then am not very lucky with the grand prizes anyways! Tongue out The theme is pretty intersting and those coupons look mighty tempting too! Smile

I am just eligible to participate regarding the age criteria but is it limited only to travel bloggers as the first line in the Terms and Consitions says ia where travel bloggers will submit stories

Prasad Np

Vineet Rajan
from Mumbai |

The last date for submission is 29th February! 20th is only when the posts were displayed.

Gosh, is this for real? I must congratulate Indiblogger for going so grand!

I am surely participating. :D

Ranjith

The terms and conditions are scaring me.... so big.... and so strict. especially point 3. Just think about the mental condition of a person who wins but in unable to receive the call when contacted. Innocent

Raowords

Do we have any advocates here, few disclaimers are conpusing.Undecided

Ranjith
from hyderabad |

Shall I enact that role? :)

Sylvian Patrick

I have a wonderful post that I wrote a year ago after my travel to Sri Lanka and this contest doesn't allow me to give as an entry. I dunno how people can expect to churn out a fresh post about a travel. I haven't travelled since that post was made. It seems they don't want interesting posts but more posts with expedia name in it. #fail

Rads

Just rewrite it? Am sure the tale will be different and what u focus and remember of the trip will be different? 

Ranjith
from hyderabad |

Just imagine visiting to one of thgose countries after winning the contest and pen your entry. As simple as that... :-)

Arti
from Mumbai |

I agree with Rads, Sylvian... I read your post, it's really nice... just pen it down again and it will come out different... looking forward to your post Smile

DS
from Mumbai |

Great contest but that terms and conditions page is really scary. Did not understand many points.

DS
from Mumbai |

I think they should allow any person to travel which is nominated by the blog owner.

Arti
from Mumbai |

Just ignore the T&C page for now and concentrate on your post instead, its all good.. Wink

Kunal Mathur
from Udaipur |

Any restriction to use of pictures? I mean the ones I havent clicked myself and would want to just put it in the entry. Pics are inherent part of all my entries.

Chitra
from Mumbai |

are multiple entries allowed? i didnt find any mention about it anywhere....

Rads
from Virginia |

Yep, it's on the main page as well. 

RioZee
from Out of this yEt in this World |

Yea definitely, write your great out. We are allowed multiple entries

RioZee
from Out of this yEt in this World |

Sorry, typo, great = heart

Ranjith
from hyderabad |

Multiple entries are allowed. Why would they miss out on an extra do follow link? Tongue out

Rads
from Virginia |

As exciting as this is, the travel date is too binding. We do have a life you know :-) I'll write only coz it is a good exercise and I do have a story to tell.

Waiting eagerly for your story, and the prizes are transferable I suppose, so one can surely gift it to needy ones, like me'

Mithun Divakaran
from Bangalore |

Wait, if I win, how will Expedia supposed to call me? I don't remember mentioning my number in profile. Are we supposed to leave our mobile numbers on our submissions?

Pooja Pradeep
from Bangalore |

They have mentioned in the Terms and Conditions page that they will ask for your personal detailsSmile

Ranjith
from hyderabad |

..... But the persoanl details (including phone number) can be asked only when they call us.... Innocent

Pri
from Goa |

The contest is undoubtedly a grand one...but the 'terms and conditions' list seems to be a little too aggressive---esp wrt .2, 7.2, 7.5 and 4.11.The non transferable and non changeable schedule of the prize trip would not leave the participant (who wins the contest) feeling much of a winner as the victory would be bound under limits of time and decision, which are more unfortunately, not his own.

Also the fact that the winner would be contacted via phone only twice is a little intimidating and perhaps email would be an additional option which should be included before rendering the winner as ineligible.

I think Indiblogger should reconsider the terms and conditions.

Pooja Pradeep
from Bangalore |

Its the T&C of Expedia I guess! IB can't do anythingCry

Pri
from Goa |

Ohh, my bad!!!

Let me rephrase that then---I think Expedia should reconsider the T & C then Smile

Pri
from Goa |

No problemo...those were just my thoughts.A lot of bloggers seem okay with the terms Smile

Prize is big and contest is interesting. Travelling at a week's notice is indeed a challenge. But topic sounds interesting and I have time after the Kissan contest.

TF Carthick
from Bangalore |

I meant I will participate after I am done with the entry for the Kissan contest. By the deadlines are also deadly. Both this and Kissan has same deadlines and tough task to churn out two good quality posts within 10 days.
