This fiasco started when I tried to make my reservation online in Sept. I went through the entire process online to make my reservation and when I went to confirm it said that something was not working right and my reservation was not made. I called DCL and the agent could not explain why this had happened. She said that she could make the res. for me. I asked her if I would still get a room credit for booking online. She said no. So we went through the whole process and when it came time for her to give me my confermation # she said 'wait a minute you already have one' my online res did go through.
Then the fun began. I tried to make a $2000 payment for my trip online and my CC was declined. Okay. Tried it again(thought I put in a number wrong) and it was declined again. I should say that there is no reason that my card should have been declined. I called my CC co. and they said that 2 authorizations had been given to DCL for $2000 each. I called DCL and they had no record of me trying to make payment. After several more calls back and forth it became apparant that something on DCL's end was not working. I got back on the phone and spoke to a DCL supervisor. She said that the reason that my CC was declined was for an incorrect security #. I thought that they had no record of my attempts? Anywho, by this time I was pissed. She said that she could try and run it without the code, and of course it went through. I wanted to voice my displeasure with the whole situation and she said I could email guest communication, which I did. Got the auto response and a week later I still haven't heard from them.
In the mean time it took 6 days to get the $4000 off my card. And I still can't believe that I have not heard from guest communications.
I thought that Disney was better than that. You spend $5000 to go on vacation and you get a run around that you would not expect from Disney. I hope that I can have a good time on the cruise and forget all the crap that it took to make the reservation. Maybe next time I should try NCL or Royal Carribian.
Thank you all for listening, I needed to vent.
