Not sure if this helps you, but I priced 2 adults, 7 day base plus DDP, at POR preferred room and was quoted $2045.87 (before insurance) with the S/P/D offer.
Can anyone help me out? I've never used a discount for a trip before, and my TA is unavailable until Wednesday. We're not Visa card holders so we can't try for discounts until then anyway, but I'd like to have some idea of what we could get.
My parents and I are on one reservation (3 adults) and my sister, BIL, and niece are on another (2 adults, 1 infant). We are booked for AoA and would like to try to switch to Pop to get the discounts. We currently do not have dining but would add it (Quick service) if S/P/D is a good deal. Any Visa card holders have any idea of which would be a better deal for us?
Also, our travel dates are 2/23-2/28, that doesn't fall in a blackout week does it?
Thanks so much!
And if in a moderate using Stay/Play/Dine we could get the regular dining plan
Not sure what the numbers would be for you, but we added s/p/d for our trip 2/23 - 3/4 so you'll be good to go on your dates
Thanks so much! I tried emailing my TA to set up a phone appointment to alter our reservation but she didn't seem to know anything about a discount. She said she'd apply any discount that came out, but since we're currently booked for AoA the discounts won't apply without changing our reservation, which she didn't seem to get!
I've read from other posters that if you upgrade from QS to regular DDP at a value resort, you must pay the difference between the two before the discount would be applied. In other words, you don't get a discounted regular dining plan if you upgrade at a value. You pay the full rack rate difference between regular DDP and QS if you use stay, play and dine discount.

Are you in the LM standard rooms? Those are the only ones excluded. If you are booked for the family suites you can apply it no problem!
Good luck moving everything around if you need to
I agree with ^^^
Unless you are in the Little Mermaid rooms you should still get the discount.
And I would point them to these boards. I know that discounts are posted here (or at least rumored) DAYS before disney sends travel agents the info. It kind of stinks. If you aren't on here and you are not paying attention to others then agents don't know until (usually) later in the day that the offer is open.
The sample pricing for value resorts in the email that I received is $1968. That is for 2 adults, 1 junior, and 1 child with the QSDP for 5 nights and 6 day base tickets. When I got a quote for Pop for 4 nights,(2 adults and 1 junior) it was for $16xx. I don't remember the exact price, but that seemed on par with their sample pricing. But, when I got a quote for All Star Sports for 5 nights, the price was $1268, so we booked that. I didn't question the CM, but I was, and am still shocked by the almost 25% reduction in cost. We love Pop, but am willing to stay at All Star Sports if it will put $400 back in our pockets and give us an extra night with meals. I also noticed that All Star Sports room only price for my dates were $85 a night. After 25% off, that's about $64 a night. So, if you're willing to stay there, I would suggest at least getting a quote for the All Stars. Good luck everybody!

I'd switch from AoA to Pop, but not to an All Stars, especially not Sports, but that's just me! I can't believe the price difference is so much though!
Have you received a confirmation with your reservation details? POP is generally priced higher than the All-Stars, however, that seems like an awfully big price difference. I would make sure everything is listed on the reservation correctly.
