Stay, Play Dine Package Price gone UP!!!

It you booked before the increase be very careful if you make changes later. With our package we have 5 day base tickets, I called yesterday just to get a quote on making the tickets hoppers. $370 more, I asked the cm why so much seeing as a hopper is $57 x 4= $228. She couldn't tell me why I just told her to keep everything the same. There will be no changes for us.

Just upgrade them to hoppers once you get down there so the package pricing can stay the same

We booked the first day the SPD came out. Last week I decided to upgrade from the regular dining plan to the deluxe dining plan since it's just my husband and I going. I wasn't sure if the price increase ($83 for us) of the package deal would be added to the upgrade cost.
The first CM I spoke with gave me the cost for the upgrade, and it was about $83 more than it should have been. I asked why it was higher than the upgrade cost and she said it must just be taxes. I didn't think so. I said I wanted to think about it more, and hung up.
I wasn't satisfied, so I called back. I explained to the next CM what I wanted to do and told her about my previous conversation. I also told her I had heard about the package price increase and that I thought that was the difference. She put me on hold so she could talk to Guest Services. I was on hold for probably 15 minutes. I thought she was just waiting for me to hang up. I was wrong. When she came back on the line, she said I was correct, and that since I had booked at their "incorrect price" I was able to keep it. I was so happy. They said they were honoring the price for those that had booked with it.
Just thought I would share.

Thanks for sharing, I was not in the mood to get them to make it right, but nice to know they will. We are now doing DQ and mini golf so don't think the hoppers are needed.

I also noticed an increase in our S/P/D package from when I originally checked into the pricing, but just tonight I received an email PIN for free dining for the same dates. The free dining saves me $130 over the S/P D offer....so patience paid off

I booked ours a while back and got it for $2486. When I booked someone else's today, it came out to $2576. However, when I checked their confirmation information online, it shows Special Rate Type: Stay, Play & Dine Offer including Disney Dining Plan while ours doesn't show any Special Rate.

When I was chatting with a rep online, the code I gave them corresponded with the Canadian discounted MYW package with Dining.

I wanted to add someone to the room on ours but it comes out to roughly $587 to add them (that's what we get when we phone). When I added this person to the reservation I booked today, it only cost $497.

Not sure why there is a price difference of $90 between the two but I was hoping she would have been added to ours for the $497.
