khmer6 Report post Posted March 10, 2014 If they are going to be calling folks during the draw with credit card issues during the draw anyways, giving them a chance to reply and change cards if there are issues, then why would the draw need to be delayed? There's already a remedy in place for cards being rejected and allowing folks to change cards with g and fish calling people. Why wait? that's what im thinking. why delay crap when they already have to call people that get their card rejected. there's already a fail safe policy in place Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

PRDATR Report post Posted March 10, 2014 the infrastructure is probably shoved down their throats by a parenting agency. they take X dollars from GF and spend X-a few tens of thousand on a contractor LOL. gooberment and politics! always screws the little guys. and yeah, why wait till the last day? yes, it is your right. a deadline is a deadline. but when the entire mass of people do something at the tail end of things it never works out. no matter what scenario or environment it is. It may have been awarded via a bid process and went to "lowest bidder" instead of "lowest responsible bidder". 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bonecollector777 Report post Posted March 10, 2014 />It would be nice if they were goin to charge more money for tag and apps if the g and f could just for once choose someone to run the draw for them that could actually run a draw without a hitch. Enough bargain huntin with the people they have chosen to do this for them. It's always a comedy of errors. Take some money out of the heritage fund and hire someone that can pull it of just once without a hitch. Every year is beyond incompetency. Bone 777 this one was for you.You said it so well I'm not even gonna add to it. Glad your seeing at least one thing that adds to my dislike of the azgfd.Healthcare.gov and azgfd.gov are in a close running for the most unfunctional website in history. They should get some sort of trophy. As for you guys saying why wait until the last day to update? Because you have every right in the world to believe the website will he functioning at 11:59.99 on the last day. The deadline is X and you should have every last second up until point X to update. I bet if you try and update your info in Utah at 11:59 it works just fine. Bottom line is azgfd is trying to save a buck by hiring a company incapable of setting up a functional system and screwing us in the end. I've said it once and I'll say it again. AZGFD= money and greed. Believe it if you like and if you don't believe it make sure to tell me all about how stupid and immature I am I'd love to hear it for the 500th time. Maybe it will make me stop talking about the department or something. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Becker Report post Posted March 10, 2014 You guys crack me up!!! They do have a date. Correct me if I am wrong but April 18th I believe. You are just getting spoiled when they release them early! And now you are complaining because they won't and probably don't know the exact early release date??? HAHAHA 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bonecollector777 Report post Posted March 10, 2014 They also had a date that was March 9th. Did they have the resources available for people to update payment before that deadline? No they didn't. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Becker Report post Posted March 10, 2014 Ah so Bone777 you want them to SPEND MORE MONEY to hire the best company for the draw system then??? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
couesmagnet Report post Posted March 10, 2014 Cause it's a prelude for what's to come on the future deadlines, we're just starting early this year with the 1st deadline, wait and see!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bonecollector777 Report post Posted March 10, 2014 Not the fact that I want them to spend MORE money. I want them to spend OUR money MORE wisely. Don't buy a couple guys a new Chevy 2500 next year or maybe don't send the director to Hawaii with his family to a meeting or don't send the director to wyoming on an antelope hunt (last two are from the audit report in the azgfd this past year) and hire a company that is capable of handling this.

cohofishing Report post Posted March 10, 2014 Wow. Not all of us have jobs where we get to be at the right place at the right time. Got home from a long trip to El Paso and realized I forgot to change my daughter's card after chase decided to send me a new one. Try working the hours I do and remember everything. A deadline is a deadline. 600am is not waiting til the last minute. I manage to have no problems with three other states 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mocha1545 Report post Posted March 10, 2014 G&F probably has to use the same company that created the Obamacare website! I still send in paper application and check. Not that it matters. I must have an X girlfriend at G&F. Never get drawn! 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

hunt4horns Report post Posted March 10, 2014 I knew that comment was coming however if I must explain here you go! I just received my new card on friday (old one comprimised) and it said that once I activate my new card that the temporary would only be good for 3 more days after the activation. So instead of hoping they would do the draw in the next 3 days I decided to go ahead and activate the card and change the billing info on their site. Don't blame us for their generic process. Take a prozac sit back and chill. The lady I spoke with said there problem would not delay the draw process as they allow for such delays. She also indicated that it would likely be another 2 weeks before the draw takes place. However GOOD LUCK and hope you draw a tag. Okay, I'll most likely get hammered for this but oh well.. WHY DOES EVERYONE WAIT UNTIL THE LAST DAY??? I mean come on, last day to put in, last day to update info. I don't get it. The system might not shut down if there weren't so many people making last minute changes... Of course there are exceptions from unforeseen card problems, but you'd think that problems like that are very limited.So, for all those last minute folks, thanks for making everyone else that knows how to be prompt wait yet another day.
