I would go ahead and call, why not? It might give you some piece of mind and they have always been very helpful over the phone. I know they say 20 - 50 days out, but that doesn't mean you have to wait until 20 days to call. (I would be certifiably insane if I waited that long ). You are paying them for a service, you have a question about it, so call and have one less thing to worry about for your trip.

Thanks! I called them earlier today and they looked up the ressie and said they had it down. I told them I knew other people (on here) that are going at the same time as I am and have already gotten their final payment email. He told me that it depends on the owner they are using the points from as to when the reservation goes into Bonnet Creeks system...or something like that. I feel okay after talking to him and he said that we should get our email soon.

Wow...you leave so much later than me. We arrive on the 20th of Oct. Weird that you got it on a weekend too. Maybe mine will be there in the morning

I was also surprised to see it. I am not sure if I have to pay immediately or could pay Fri. I sent them an email but haven't heard back, yet 0.

Still waiting.........

 

[UWGRAD]

I know its impossible...but I wouldn't stress about this at all. When they first hit the scene there was some reason to stress, but their track record appears fine now.

As I had previously posted I'm sure different types of reservations require different levels of involvement and coordination. You very well could have a more complex reservation than others and its taking more time to piece it all togther.

So sit back and mentally prepare...worst case scenario you buy one last minute through someone else. They will not be sold out during that time most likely.

Thanks for the encouragement Just sitting here waiting...I know it will come soon enough. Just a bit more time we get to hold onto our money I do feel better since I spoke with them. I would just like to have one more thing behind me. Im trying to be patient....God just didnt give me too much of that, unfortunately

Uggggggg.....33 days out......still waiting........

 

[blessedby3]

I got excited yesterday when I saw an email from VS...only to realize it was a response to an email I sent at least a week ago asking about the final payment. 30 days and still waiting

 

[blessedby3]

Well......I finally got the much anticipated email this evening asking for my final payment for VS. I clicked on the link to make our payment...only to have it go to a page that says "we're sorry, the link appears to be broken"!!!! I cant even believe it!!!! Anyone else have this problem?? I emailed them back and I called and left a message. Guess I will have to wait YET AGAIN for Monday to get here

 

[staceywj]

I did not have a prob submitting my payment. Hopefully the website is down for tech issues

I just got an email back from them...guess someone was still in the office They told me to go to the main website and pay that way. I did that and WOOHOO...I am finally paid in full and can now call and check my reservation directly with BC and put in my tower request PTL

 

[staceywj]

What a relief that if us done...I know the feeling! What tower did you request?

I know...a big relief!!
I am going to request either 5 or 6. I need to go back and research again. I do remember deciding 5 or 6...I just need to look back at previous threads and make a final decision. What did you request?

 

[staceywj]

I requested tower 5 first w a firework view then tower 6 also w a firework view. I also think that area is where there are good pools.

We're staying around the same time, and I just asked my kids what tower they wanted. I assumed they would want to be near the pirate pool, but both of them thought they would like the other slide better and said they wanted tower 3! You know, just when I think I have my kids figured out! Oh well, so I'll request tower 3 and we can always walk over to the pirate pools! (assuming we actually get our request!)
