markr Posted January 10, 2015 Posted January 10, 2015 Long time, no see. Hope everyone had a great holiday. Anyway, just trying to purchase my Platinum pass at KI web site and does not seem to be working. Customer service is closed until Monday-I am trying to get the buy now, pay later plan and by Monday it will be too late. Has anyone else here been having problems with the site? 2 Quote
The Interpreter Posted January 10, 2015 Posted January 10, 2015 Are you trying on a mobile? malen claims it works. That has NOT been my experience. Quote
malem Posted January 10, 2015 Posted January 10, 2015 Works for me. On both mobile and desktop, I got to the point to submit a credit/debit card to complete the transaction. Try this direct link: https://cf-ki.secure.accesso.com/packageList/navItem/2015%20Platinum Note that platinum pass and dining plan prices are scheduled to go up when the holiday sale ends tomorrow night.

markr Posted January 11, 2015 Author Posted January 11, 2015 I just get a blank screen except for some light blue at the top. I guess I will have to check with KI customer service on Monday. Thanks for the link. 2 Quote
markr Posted January 11, 2015 Author Posted January 11, 2015 Must be a problem with the web site as same thing is happening on my I Phone. Hopefully they will extend the season pass sale. Anyway thanks for checking Terpie. Hope you had a nice Christmas. 1 Quote
malem Posted January 11, 2015 Posted January 11, 2015 Hm... from a cursory glance, it seems to be an ajax/websockets problem. A connection is being closed early, and the site isn't robust enough to try something more reliable. If you have access to a Windows, Mac OS X, Android or Linux device - try using another browser. If all you have is iOS, you may be out of luck, as the WebKit library included in your iOS version might not be compatible with Accesso's site. Using the latest iOS version would probably help, but that's not possible for all iDevice users. If you wait until tomorrow, the prices (for platinum, at least) will have already gone up. KI customer support provided by Accesso in Florida won't be able to get you the old prices. 1 Quote
freaks76 Posted January 11, 2015 Posted January 11, 2015 I have to change my credit card info before the first of the month, did the payment plan the last day of the season. Wonder if it would be better for me just to call the park directly? I'd much rather talk to a live person. Quote

electricsun Posted January 11, 2015 Posted January 11, 2015 I just get a blank screen except for some light blue at the top. I guess I will have to check with KI customer service on Monday. Thanks for the link. While KI Customer Service may not be open this weekend, I would recommend submitting your question online today (here: https://www.visitkingsisland.com/contact-us) or sending them an email explaining that you can't access the site on iOS but would like to buy a pass. They may not be able to do anything....but they may also be able to help you. I don't know KI policies but some business have the flexibility in adjusting deadlines on a case by case basis. It never hurts to ask. 1 Quote
markr Posted January 11, 2015 Author Posted January 11, 2015 Thank you for your help everyone. Heading out to lunch now but when I got back I am going to see if Google Chrome browser works. Otherwise will send message. 3 Quote
