    Our vacation was a disaster, and Disney didn't live up to expectations.

    I had my mother and stepfather to help us at the airport. I took my kids to Disneyworld alone because my oldest son has been asking to go on vacation for three years. I'm a single parent. I did the best that I could, and since I'd never been to Disney, I didn't know what to expect. I've been...

    Our vacation was a disaster, and Disney didn't live up to expectations.

    Yes, it was a malfunctioning lock. The concierge guy's key wouldn't work in the lock either, and he had to use a traditional metal key to get in. He commented that it was unusual and they'd have to call maintenance.

    Our vacation was a disaster, and Disney didn't live up to expectations.

    I was supposed to haul two children, two suitcases, two backpacks, and a rented double stroller over to bell services by myself? Huh. Where can I sign up for the eight arms you must have? lol

    Our vacation was a disaster, and Disney didn't live up to expectations.

    Ummm... My child's fingertips were hanging (literally) off the ends of his fingers. Would you have NOT called 911??? He was spraying blood everywhere, and it looked to me like his fingers had been severed. Are you seriously implying that I shouldn't have called for an ambulance to get my son...

    Our vacation was a disaster, and Disney didn't live up to expectations.

    We stayed at the Caribbean Beach Resort from the 21st-28th. We got locked out of our room on our first full day, had to trudge across to the custom house to get let back into our room, had to switch rooms and wait for close to two hours for bell services to come help me haul our stuff...

    Etsy communication?

    Hi, I'm just wondering if anyone here has had any problems with the Etsy internal messaging system? I purchased an item a few weeks ago (it's a personalized item, so I understand it takes time), and I was guaranteed I would receive it by the time we leave for WDW (in 7 days from now). The...

    My Mother Makes Me Crazy!!!

    Pardon my opinion here, but while I understand that your feelings are hurt, think about it from the position of your mother's other grandchildren. The *children* are the ones benefiting from your mother's generosity; not you. The *children* are the ones suffering from the parent(s?) not...

    La Nouba?

    I've wanted to see Cirque Du Soleil for over five years, and it's kind of important to me that I take a little bit of time for *me* during our vacation. I'm 27 years old, and this is my first vacation ever. That said, I fully intend not to bring my kids along. I have a 4 and 7 year old. I...

    Hoping I can keep the secret!

    I'm another KOTS! I decided this spring that we'd be going to WDW this year for the first time ever! My boys think that we're going camping. Right. Camping. The plan is to drive to MSP (3 hour drive) to 'camp,' and instead hop on a plane. "Look, guys! I got a great sale on...

    Debit card got hacked....strange charges.

    How is it illegal? Every retail outlet in my area, plus my own workplace, will use the imprint method if their machines are down. We imprint, call to authorize, and complete the transaction.

    Debit card got hacked....strange charges.

    Hi, I just wanted to pop in and let you know that whomever got your card number could have gotten it many months ago and sold it to someone who is just now using it. I work for a financial institution, and we see this every once in a while. Once, about two years ago, the tellers had to...

    TSA documentation?

    Thank you! So forgive my ignorance, but do I print the boarding pass at home when I do an online check-in?

    TSA documentation?

    I booked our upcoming WDW vacation online through Disney, including our flights, and I called a couple of weeks ago to give the necessary information for our flights (middle name, birthdays), which is apparently very important information. I was told that was all I needed to do, and I promptly...

    Debit Card Overdraft Protection-Will You Opt-In?

    You DO NOT need to opt in to take advantage of your LOC or Savings account. The law does not allow a financial institution to essentially 'force' you to opt in, and the bank/cu can NOT penalize you for not choosing to opt in. If your financial institution says otherwise, you should report them.

    Debit Card Overdraft Protection-Will You Opt-In?

    Okay, now that I've read through the entire thread, let me introduce myself: I work for a credit union. I see a dozen people every day who overdraft their account. It stinks. I feel terribly for the people who end up having to pay excessive fees for their mistakes. That said, it is...

    Debit Card Overdraft Protection-Will You Opt-In?

    Recurring fees can be either ACH or debit card transactions. If you give your gym your debit card number, that does NOT give them access to your routing and account number.
