If it hadn't been for these boards my 40% off code would have never been discovered. I never received a post card or email from Disney. I just decided to call like others were doing and to my surprise I had a code attached to my name. How did this happen??? :confused3 Normally I wouldn't have even been on the boards this early (figured December codes wouldn't be out till summer). Anyway, I just hate the "code waiting" thing and I am so thankful to this board. :worship: Now my December trip is all set. To all those who are still waiting, hang in there, and really you have to keep calling because you may have a discount and not even know it!! :thumbsup2

I just tried calling and the CM said their computer system was being enhanced and he could not give me any information. He said to call back later this afternoon, too bad I will be at work the rest of the day. Oh well, I guess I'll try another day.

I got the 20% off code and never rec'd an email or postcard either.
No complaints about the amount of discount because something is way better than nothing.

Called and they said I had 40% code. I booked Movies for 8 nights and POFQ for 3 more nights with discount. Booked the POFQ quite abit later.....STill had a code.
Yesterday I called and was thinking of upgrading to Contempory. The CM said I had no code:scared1: ! I said I did and to look at my reservation. She said yes but there is no code. I said " I guess I'll leave things alone:confused3
Be careful about changing.....

Something tells me that it is no accident on Disney's part that emails and postcards are not sent out to all "code" holders.

Sorry, didn't mean to ignore you.
I believe we all just called the normal Walt Disney travel company numbers and asked whatever CM happened to answer the phone.

sometimes Disney emails are sent to bulk or spam folders...
I've been checking my bulk folder every day to no avail...*sigh*
I'm going to keep calling as well. It seems to be hit or miss!

I've been reading these boards religiously for a few weeks now and FINALLY decided to register :) My husband and I are finally going on our honeymoon this December . . .after 2 years lol and I chose Disney World!
I'm sooo jealous of those who recieved the 40% off code. . .so lucky!! hehe I've called 3 times so far these past couple weeks and 2 of the 3 CM was able to find me. . .but withOUT a code. It's sad because I know I definitley won't be recieving any post card in the mail anytime soon lol :sad1:
Has anyone ever called and called. . .and then all of a sudden get a code? And if so, how long did it take??

Any of those will take you to the same place. It DOESN'T matter which number you call, it is whether or not you have code in their computer system.

I finally got through today and found out I have no codes attached to my name :(
I am so sad.......lol

I called last night to see about a preferred room. The CM I talked to was wonderful. I asked him if their were any discounts in December. He told me to go to the special offers on the disneyworld web site to find a code that was good the time we are going. I tried and had no idea what he was talking about I couldn't find anything. He said he would help me and said if I switched resorts he could save me over 400 dollars!!! Needless to say I switched from POR to POFQ. I told him I had been reading about 40% off codes and he told me that is what I got. YEAH

I called last night and they had no record of me in the system? after all the stuff we order from them?
I also asked about any deals for early May for the mid level resorts (orleans, etc) and she laughed and said no deals, sorry...
maybe I should call again and again and again until they find a code for me...haha

That's awesome. Doesn't it make you wonder though? I sometimes think that it all depends on who you talk too. That's why you have to keep calling. Sometimes they aren't in the mood to look for you. I wonder if they could find the code if they looked harder or maybe some of them don't even know where to look. Just a thought.

It sure seems that way....

is the code only for a certain date? If I have a Disney credit card & have ordered the DVD from the site, would that put me in the system?

We went from having no code to having a code after a couple phone calls by my husband with questions about cost of stay...so forth. I think they sometimes give codes to help seal the deal on the trip. Not that i am complaining. We actually ended up with a 40 percent code.

I got the 40% off code this year and last year. I kept calling and calling. Maybe about 8 times this year and 4 times last year. Someone did give me the code so I was able to give it to the Cm when they asked for it. I shared it with my mom and after a few calls she found a cm to apply it.

Question: when people mention the 40% discount, is this room only? My family has a Magic Your Way package booked in June and I'm wondering if there's any possible code that will help us out.

Not for June... these super discounts are only for off season. Sorry!

I'm confused. In reading this thread I saw how others had called down there to have their name looked up to see if there's a code attached to it. Well, I just called and was told by the CM that they couldn't look up to see if we had a code attached. Bummed out!:confused3 I thought that they could look it up. I'm wondering if there's been a policy change or whether they've been told to stop looking it up.:surfweb: Wish we could do it and had a code! I'd make reservations today!!!!:thumbsup2

Sorry, I meant to also mention that I have two off-season trips planned later in the year. When people talk about getting a code, is it room-only, or for packages, or what?

Both... mine was a pin code for room only but the CM found the appropriate code to upgrade it to a package with deluxe dining

I want your CM. I really have to get more diligant about calling for codes. I am glad I made my way to this board.

It was applied after a few calls. . does that mean that some CMs did not take it the first few times?

when calling do you find it more effective to say "I was wondering if there are any codes I could use on my next trip?" or "I have heard some people have been getting the 40% off code and is it available for me?" or does it not matter
