    Hi Trevelyan,

    I apologize for the inconvenience. I can assure you that we passed your info along to the partner for fulfillment and in turn they reached out to the local venues to secure tickets.  Unfortunately, it looked like the venue was unable to fulfill your prizing for one reason or another.  We're looking further into the issue and we'll let you know when  we find out what happened.

    Best,
    Christina

On 11/9/2011 10:45 AM, I Talked to Claire Gendel (GetGlue):
    I talked with her on the phone about Another Prize I had won, and mentioned my daughters predicament. and she asked me to email her ALL the information above which I did...

    Ummm... Hello. You sent me an email about me winning Mayday Parade concert tickets, I sent in the info you said I needed to give you guys to get the tickets and on the day of the concert I called the House Of Blues to confirm \ and they said they didn't have any info on me going!!!! I sent you guys yet ANOTHER email and you sent me a response saying you would look into it at the beginning of the month and now it's Thanksgiving and still nothing from you guys. So just wondering if I was ever going to get a reason on why I didn't get to go to the concert? I know I can't go now but still I would like SOMETHING since I didn't get to go!

    The following is the conversation that has been 1/2 taking place... The prize was awarded to my Daughter Nerdz Rule (My Daughter) for sake of picking the tickets up at will call, I informed my daughter to give her mothers name, Trevelyan. A little more information about what else transpired on our end... about 1 week before the show, we called the Anaheim House of Blues to check on the tickets and they said they will not have a will call list for promotional tickets until the day of the show, so we called back the day of the show and they did not have any record of tickets under my wife's name or Nerdz Rule (My Daughter)'s...

    My daughter was looking forward to going to the concert for the whole month and was in tears when I informed her that due to some error she was not going to be able to go because there were no tickets for her...

    I have tried to teach her to be patient with getting responses, however you can plainly see the giant gaps in responses from you... She is 14 this year and taking this very well for her age. I hate for her to honestly learn the life lesson than sometimes you get have to bend over and take it. I have already told her to not expect much in the way of compensating for the error, and as such she has simply asked for an explanation, and no one seems to be able to give her that...

    In my opinion you honestly owe her a lot more, as she still checks in, promotes your site, and earns her stickers. Disregarding the fact that she never got the prize she was "promised".

    (I also added a link to my Blog informing them how I have tried to get a job as a designer with them here, but removed for sake of breavity)

    Hi Trevelyan,
    Our sincere apologies for the delay here. I've spoke to House of Blues and they would like to offer you tickets to another show. Is there one you really want to see (aside from New Years Eve)?
