Question about new Visa card

[piglet33]

Has anyone been able to transfer a deposit that was made on another credit card to the new Disney Visa card without having to cancel their reservation? I want to be able to take advantage of the 0% APR, but the entire amount must be charged to the new visa.

Thanks!

I believe another poster said they were able to transfer their deposit to the new card without making a whole new reservation.

I am bummed because my final payment is due real soon and Visa told me my card was mailed out on the 2nd....still have not received it!!!

MJ, Boy can I relate! My final payment (all except the deposit) is due this weekend but since the travel agency office is closed on the weekends I guess I should take care of it this afternoon. I was told yesterday that my card was mailed on Monday and I'm thinking I should get it for sure today or tomorrow. It's not like it will be a whole lot in Disney Visa points but every little bit helps. My mail has been running LATE and it's almost 3pm and it still hasn't come yet. :rolleyes: Oh well, no real big deal!

I got my new Disney Visa last week, and it specifically says that any balance transfers will not earn any points toward Disney. I don't know if balance transfers will work for the 0% financing, but I have a different BankOne visa with a one-year 0% (not the Disney card) and they did allow me to transfer what I had deposited toward our next cruise from my old visa to the new one at 0%, but I had to transfer the total amount that was one that card. It was all only cruise related anyway. Hope this helps a little.

Well...my card finally came today....but the only problem is I asked for a card for both hubby and me, but they only sent one card with his name on it. Time to get on the phone for the other card!!! It's a cute card, though!!!

I was so disappointed when DH got his new Disney Visa and I didn't get one! He sure has rubbed it in my face too!

I called today. I guess they had problems and the "additional cardholder" didn't get theirs, but they are aware of the problem and are working to send out those additional cards.

Sure wish I had that card when I booked our DCL trip. Because we were using part points and part cash, it was required to be paid immediately with cash or credit card. I could have loaded up on Disney rewards!!!! and 6 months to pay!!!

I agree the card is really cute!

I booked with DU and put my deposit down last Friday with AmEx. When I got home from work, waiting for me was the new Disney Credit Card. So I wrote to DU and asked them to refund AmEx and charge Disney instead. No problem, DU provides excellent service.

When I called about my missing card they told me the additional cards were being sent under a separate mailing and I shoud get mine today or Monday.

I had charged my deposit on my Discover, when I got my Disney card I called my TA who called Disney. They refunded my Discover and charged the deposit to my new Disney Visa. TA said that I must had been the first one to do this cause it took them forever and they had to call in 2 Disney Supers to get it done. She also said that it was note on my ressies. So now I only have to pay off my balance with my new Disney Visa to get the $50. onboard credit.

thanks for all the responses. I emailed DU and they transferred the deposit to my visa without any problems. They are just great.

How long ago had you paid your deposit? I charged mine
a few months ago on a different card through AAA. I received
my Disney card last week and would LOVE to be able to transfer my deposit.....but was afraid it was too far in the past.

thanks!

I booked the cruise about 2 weeks ago. I still think you can get your deposit refunded and charged to your new card. It never hurts to ask.
