I have a question about bounceback offers. Are they only available to US residents or are they generally offered to anyone staying at the resort when they are offered?

Is it always the case that you are offered to come back on the deal you are currently travelling on? And does it have to be taken over the following 12 months?

Look at me already thinking about our next trip - maybe I should just focus on this one!

They are offered to anyone staying in that room when they put the flyers out, no restrictions

No, there is no guarantee that the bounceback will be the same discount or a certain timeframe. The Bounceback will have specific travel dates. We received a bounce back last December for free dining dates on August and September.

And by Jan 5 it had changed to room only, but with dates throughout 2013. So excited that FD did come out, but sure would have been nice to have already booked it and not have to stress these last few months.

LM rooms are not included in the FD or room only discount - so just switched over to POP and saved 1,200 for a week

So it seems that when they added my Free Dining at POR, this made the Disney system very MAD and now my ressie is corrupted! It's been almost 36 hours and guest services is having a hard time fixing things. They are vague as to the problem, but on my end, I can't see updated budget information on My Disney Experience. All CM's (4 in total now) have assured me that Free Dining is included in my package and that there is a problem with the Disney Visa Promotion that is causing the problem. Anyone else have an issue? I HATE not having something in writing. The problem is also preventing us from getting the confirmation email. This has been a less than Magical 36 hours!

I would do a new reservation which would not be corrupted and then cancel the bad one. You will have to wait a little while to get your initial deposit credited back to your credit card, but it wouldn't be messed up.

The CM's seem confident that it isn't a problem however I was thinking the same thing. I was a bit surprised they didn't just do that on their end.

Hate that your having the same problem, but as they say..."misery loves company". Glad to know I'm not the only one out there. Hope they get this fixed soon or by Thursday they may be in a world of hurt.

Did you get a confirmation email?

 

[laceyinwonderland]

Disney doesn't release the October - December free dining dates annually until around July, sometimes August. Disney will still need to fill resort rooms during select historical low crowd weeks in Oct - Dec and I haven't seen anything that would lead me to believe they won't release some FD dates for that timeframe.

I hope your right!!! I've got a package booked for POFQ with FD in sept just in case something changes, but im pretty sure hubby is not gonna be able to go! So im debating on going anyway and hoping things will go ok w 1 adult and 2 kids, or pushing our trip out to Nov! If only I had a crystal ball!!!

I got the "Thank you for making a Disney reservation" about an hour after we changed our reservations (Monday). Finally got the upgraded invoice this morning (Tuesday) at 9:13 so over 24 hours. However I have been trying to add gift cards to pay and still nothing. However I figure I have at least 90 days to pay!! And if push comes to shove I call in and make a poor CM apply a gazillion gift cards. It will all be okay. And think the end result......DISNEY!!!

The wait is killing me!!!!!!

How many rooms are usually allocated for FD at POFQ? We currently have our package booked there, two rooms, 7 of us. I know they go fast and we don't have the Disney Visa so we have to wait till tomorrow...my fingers and toes are crossed that they still have rooms available there and we don't have to switch resorts.

I am pretty sure they reserve some rooms for the GR however you should always have a back up resort and room type. Calling at 7 EST may get you what you want but having a back up is always a great practice! Some people have reported that X room type at x resort wasn't available at first but a few weeks late magically had one! If you dot get it you can always try back later. People changing may open up a room! Good luck!!

You should be fine. We're staying there as well, from the 20th-27th, and we have to wait until tomorrow too. Just remember that right now it's DV users only, so most of the general public has no knowledge. By the time that they run the commercials tomorrow, those of us on the inside will have changed/booked already.





I also wanted to add that for perspective, we were at POFQ last September. Even though there was FD the parking lot was MAYBE 15% full, and I'm talking at like 4am. most of the rooms were empty, so I don't think we're in danger of losing our spot there.

 

[DanenRox]

Are the Swan/Dophin Resorts included in the Free Dining promotion? If so, are they considered a Moderate/Deluxe?

No, the S&D aren't included, and they don't qualify for EMH either.....sorry.

That is good to hear! Thanks for putting it in perspective like that
