My Aunt is still having problems and they check in on Nov 3rd. They have 2 rooms. 1- one bedroom and 1- two bedroom. The 2 bedroom received their bands for half their stay, when the 2nd half popped up to personlaize they was a person missing from the order and it was the wrong reservation number
.
I called Tech today for them, because I have to do it all
and they told me that the first set of bands will be good for the whole week.
Can someone verify this. I didn't bother to get the 2nd week fixed with the bands that had the wrong reservation number, only because they told me the bands can be used the whole time they are there. Is this true?
Yes. The bands are not tied to a reservation. They are tied to a profile on MDE. Anything linked to that profile (for this trip or any future trips) will be accessible by the band linked to it. They are sending out one band per person per reservation right now, but you really only need one.
My other Aunt in the one bedroom, can not get the magic bands to appear for them. Both the one bedroom and the 2 bedroom is under her acct and the one bedroom will not sure up for the magic bands, even after she received the invite.
Have her go in and do on line check in or do it again. That has been working for many people. If that doesn't work she can try giving DVC a call to make sure the right people are associated with the reservation. If that fails have her call IT at (407) 939-7765 (press #2).
I was on the phone 1 hr and 15 mins trying to fix it. They finally said, that the one bedroom reservation is not turned on
and that they will turn it on to receive the bands. I told them "time will tell. " I don't believe them because this is our 3 call to them about the one bedroom.
If your aunt is listed on both the 1BR and 2BR reservations it will cause problems in the system. Have her make sure only the people staying in each villa are listed on the respective reservations.
My DD is on that one bedroom. She does have a band that starts at BWV on the 1st, So if the one bedroom never gets the bands. Will my DD band be able used all week, even after she moves to OKW?
Yes it will.
TIA.
And I thought making Dining plans was hard.
