    MEMBER SERVICES SPREADS CHRISTMAS CHEER

    Well, so much for the Christmas cheer. For someone who could not find time to connect with MS, a seven day a week operation, you seem to have plenty of time to vent out here. Was your thread not enough...

    Can someone help me understand this message from MS?

    So to recap... Neither the foot surgery nor the Disney trip could've been rescheduled? That's the root cause of the challenge. It seems that the only way you were going to enjoy your trip is if a quiet pool was in service, and not completely packed with Northerners wanting to take a tan home...

    Sad Parenting Observation

    While I appreciate your admiration of my ability see exactly how a family operates from one sliver of a day, I made no such claim, but I am mesmerized by your ability to refute my observations from having not seen that same sliver, annonymously, online. A late teens kid is called out for...

    Sad Parenting Observation

    I typically stay out of parental style debates, but this one connects some dots I want to share. Years back, I noticed my brother was a pretty strict parent and mentioned "you run a tight ship", to which he replied "fight the small battles, and you'll never need to fight the big battles." I...

    VGF waitlisted 10.5 months out

    A TLA. Just kidding! There are so many out here, I can never keep up. I'm guessing Grand Floridian Resort... Final answer!

    Removing people from reservation

    Golly, folks! It's not like they're going to smuggle the other two guests into the room or something. DME is going to handle that after they sneak out of the wheel well and into the luggage compartment at OIA! :stir:

    Affordable gas near OIA

    FYI, For years, there have been two gas stations that price gouged with prices more than a dollar above the going price, on Semaron(436). Wawa just opened there and they are selling gas cheap. Local ordinances couldn't seem to get those stations to do the right thing, but I suspect this...

    I refuse to believe...

    if you have your heart set on a stinkin' room for that weekend, learn from my mistake and go straight to 192 in Kissimmee. With DVC, you can only use cash, not points, and their stink selection is pretty weak. Once you get East of Old Town, you have a wide variety of very pungent options...

    Anyone at Aulani of Flossie?

    Hope any danger or inconvenience is minimal. Keep us posted, please. Edit: "for" Flossie. Darn auto correct.

    cacelling problem

    I second this idea. In your points statement, the original booking of the res should show the points being taken. From there, the res was either cancelled or not. If it was cancelled, the statement should show the points coming back, and then the statement wouldn't agree with your points...

    Why can't I allocate my points online!

    Yes. That is often where the problem exists. :thumbsup2

    Why can't I allocate my points online!

    Is it a software issue or a software feature? Borrowing is a final transaction and can't be reversed. The scenario of the OP is the one time someone will want to borrow when they don't "need" to borrow. So the self service site may be designed to protect the majority of users from unwanted...

    Someone Cheer me up :(

    I have to agree with Disneynutz. I would do whatever it takes to keep your reservation as is, with the late joiners experiencing any crowding or inconvenience. Or, book them at Saratoga, explaining that there's no rooms at AK, and leave it at that. They have demonstrated a bit of apathy...

    How are points allocated?

    I think you're comparing apples to oranges. The variable pricing, along with length of stay restrictions in the cash world is yield management. It's a practice to maximize profit on their rooms inventory. DVC doesn't have the same flexibility. We own the resorts. They're not selling when...

    We're Back!!

    Glad to hear you found your way back "home". Just want to make sure you're aware that while you were away, DVC implemented a policy where resale contracts can only be used for stays at DVC resorts and RCI (the new Interval International).

    waiting, waiting, waiting for my membership mumber

    If it is your expectation that you can book for early April, a peak time, so close to arrival, you might want to pause and research your purchase. I'm not saying that to be Debbie downer. Just don't want to read another "disappointed with my DVC" post. Honestly, mid March through most...

    Am I the only one?

    Dude! I find that insensitive and offensive. I've met a lot of nice spring breakers in my 12 years of undergraduate work. I even brought a book to New Orleans this Mardi Gras and may do the same next month in Cancun. Okay, on a more serious note... The inventory available for points usage...

    Holding account

    If it works out to where you can make Hilton Head for Saturday night, that might be an option.

    Adding Person to Reservation

    I know it's only been about a year since we boldly leapt into the 21st century and got the ability to book online, but am I the only one thinking its time to enhance the functionality, and not just the look and feel? The current system is fine if you only want 7 or fewer days, don't want to...
