When I got my $15 cards back in September I called the Disney Catalog up and asked them what was to stop any person from using the holiday code. Because when I first got my cards I noticed that all you needed to know was the code and the card didn't say anything about mailing it in so I just wanted to make sure. The cast member put me on hold while she asked her supervisor. It's hard for me to believe that Disney as strict as they usually are with all their promos and rules didn't even think of the abuses that this promo would lead to. When I read the fine print on the back of the card it was very obvious as to the loophole involved. When the cast member came back on the line she said that all I had to do was put the word "holiday" in and I didn't have to mail the cards in at all. I made purchases in August that entitled me to 6 cards. So sure I could have made more than 6 purchases but I only made 6 since that is the number of cards I had. Now I see on their website that you do have to mail your cards in to receive the $15 discount which I think is only right.

I saw it just a few minutes ago on my wish list page. You click on it and it gives you the details of the $15 off offer.

With all the technology Disney has, you would have thought they would have had individual passwords. They do when you log in to complete a survey.
Me, like many I'm sure, just read about this great savings and used it. It wasn't until yesterday late afternoon that I was reading how this savings originated.
I think mailing in was a great way to do this, if it was limited to only certain people. Or at least have individual passwords -- used in the same way basically as a gift card (or as resort rate postcard).

Does that mean whomever did not have a legitimate card will be charged the full amount, and then only credited when they receive a card to match the order number?

How do you read that, or has anyone spoke to a Disney rep?

Curious how this will work out. If Disney charges full price for the order, then only credits when they get the card - they're smarter than we've given them credit for ehh?????

Let me know how you think this will pan out...

Well, I would say they would be in a whole lot of trouble. For example my e-mail order conformation:
Shipping Method: Standard Shipping
Quantity Item Price Item Description
-------- ----- ------- -------------------------------------------
1 25934 22.50 Disney catalog Cover Art Pin Series Set #1
Subtotal: $ 22.50
Discount: $ 15.00
Total Gift Box: $ 0.00
Total Shipping & Handling: $ 5.95
Estimated Sales Tax: $ 1.02
Grand Total Amount: $ 14.47


So, $14.47 is what I authorized and what they verified.
BUT I will say that CRO twice charged aginast my debit card earlier this year without my permission, authorization and did not notify me they did so. And they were nasty to me about it! I only figured it out when balancing my check book and wondering what the charges were!
More just to see what my rights were in general, I wrote and explained the situation to the state Attorney Genral's office. Their response: They asked me to file a formal complaint so they could investigate. But they couldn't without my complaint. As it was I was in the right.
I was nice and backed off. But making unauthorized charges is a serious offense. And I have experienced this with Disney, as many pin peope have too. It does happen.
I have also had been charged several WEEKS before the item has been shipped. That's a major no-no too. But it has happened to me just this last June. (I was getting a questionnaire on their service before I got the shipped item! )
With Disney, anything is poosible -- good and bad. I learned from the CRO experience NEVER to give Disney my debit card number for anything.
It seems like when they screw up, they screw up big.
