Posted about this a few weeks ago but I use this all the time for snagging good getaways. The push notifications are not working for me, and II are absolutely useless. When I call I ask for technical support for the app and they have no clue what the getways alerts are.

So my question is, those of you who use this feature, are your push notifications working?

Hasn't worked in a long time. Had a problem in the past, then seemed to work for a few weeks, now back to useless.

They have no clue on the phone they say no one else has an issue. It’s worked for me since it was integrated up until recently. Maybe at time it didn’t work but I wasn’t looking for getaways at the time!!

Oh no really????

Ditto to the others- notifications were working but haven’t been now for a while. We should all call and complain.

I don’t know if the push notifications have just sprung back into life, but I have just received one for one of the
Getaway Alerts which I have set up.
This is the first one I recall receiving in quite a long while, although there have previously been matching Getaways when I manually search.

Me too Barry literally just got one a few mins ago! And really that’s all I was wondering was it just me or everyone they weren’t working for!

I also received multiple getaway alerts this morning. Hopefully this function will become more valuable next year when we are able to take advantage of more getaways.
