Title: New Mexico email
Post by: Craig on June 03, 2009, 06:19:41 PM: Any one else get a email from NM to make sure your credit card is still good and has room for license fees?

Post by: Huntbear on June 03, 2009, 06:39:46 PM: I think I would be calling them and asking if they send emails like that.

Post by: BC CHASER on June 03, 2009, 06:54:40 PM: I also got it. They have already hit my card over a month ago though.

Post by: joebear on June 03, 2009, 07:34:34 PM: Yep! they should think about that before they try to take the money not after they already have taken it!

Post by: mritech1 on June 04, 2009, 11:26:37 AM: I got the same e-mail. I got charged the 5 or 9 dollars app fee a while ago but what they want is to be able to hit you with the 800$ deal if you get drawn. If your card doesn't accept the charge they throw your name out and go for the next guy. They are trying to be helpful for us in case we moved or changed cards etc.

Post by: bucklucky on June 04, 2009, 11:56:13 AM: I was going to call the card company to make sure they do not deny any charges.

Post by: WAcoueshunter on June 04, 2009, 12:03:57 PM: My group drew a couple years ago in NM. My cousin's credit card was replaced (lost or stolen) before the draw, so the charge wouldn't go through. NMG&F was nice enough to call him about it right after the draw so he could submit a new card and get the tag. Based on the email they're sending, my guess is they aren't so flexible nowadays.

Their site says online results will be available on 6/11. So maybe we'll start getting credit card hits Monday (6/8) or Tuesday (6/9)?

Post by: boneaddict on June 04, 2009, 12:11:39 PM: I already got a credit card hit, I assumed with pay up front everyone did. :yike: Could I have been drawn......

Post by: boneaddict on June 04, 2009, 12:21:30 PM: If I draw my sheep tag, I might have to bum a ride down with someone as I don't think the truck will make it.
Title: Re: New Mexico email
Post by: BC CHASER on June 04, 2009, 05:05:06 PM: No tag for you bone, it has my name on it already! If you draw I will go but you will have to fly back from AZ or KS.
Title: Re: New Mexico email
Post by: Craig on June 04, 2009, 05:22:55 PM: At this point I hope I do not draw. Full hunting schedule already.

That's always a risk! Hopefully you'd have a good supply of elk to eat after she takes all your food money! :chuckle:

You are right. I should be proactive and be prepared... So, theoretically, I guess I can survive pretty well for a time with everything that I would take with me to New Mexico for an elk hunt (so when I get kicked out of the house at least they won't find me dead in a park somewhere). Wall tent, check. -30 degree Sleeping bag, check. Propane stove, check. Rifle, check. Knife, check. 5 gallon water cans, check...

... I guess I'll be OK...

The sheep tag alone is $3200 that they hit you for.

Post by: boneaddict on June 05, 2009, 07:12:23 PM: I got hit close to 4 grand. Most of that is sheep.
