180 day mark and about to throw MDE out the window!!!!

[bee86]

Hi all,

Just wondering is anyone else having this problem,

Today is my 180 mark and I should be jumping up and down deeeeeelighted with myself after making and getting all my reservations. However I am getting this message when trying to book my dining.
"We were unable to check for available tables at this time.
A problem occurred while looking for availability. Please try again later."

I think freaking out is an understatement right now as I am doing the ADR's for both me and DBF and my mum and dad...........

Am I trying to early? should I leave it an hour or so..........???

Hating the glitches with MDE. Had a smooth run of it this time last year.

You should be okay now. At the time you posted this thread you were about 15 minutes too early

Not sure how you got on with your "+10" I didn't. My 180 days was 2 days ago and I forgot about it. Only wanted to make one ADR for now anyway, so not a big deal but as of today I can still not figure how to get the +10 on MDE to show up so I just booked for a day that looked like it might work well for us

Hope you get everything you want

Its still acting up tbh, very very slow and getting the +10 is like trying to find a needle in a haystack.

So far I have one down it feels like 50 million to go at this pace!!!

So my mums MDE is not working at all.

Do you think it would be ok to book them all on mine and then they use the dining time?
We have the same surname and they will be using they own dining plan?

If I were you, I'd get that number and my list ready and just call them. Lines open in 5 minutes and that option is looking a whole lot easier

I do prefer the convenience of doing stuff myself online, but this system is a lot slower than the old one was, unless I just don't know what I'm doing (which is very possible)

Ok I ended up calling them. All done. I need a cuppa and cake now

Im so glad I took your advice!!!! Thanks for your help

Well I didn't really have any advice except "I'd call because I'm clueless myself" lol

Just glad you got what you needed. I have the one I wanted for DD and if I find something on a different day I might change it but otherwise I'm happy for now so mine was easy. The only other ones we might do we are happy to work in wherever and none of them are among the top sought after ones to snag.

I have a half day at work today as I put in a day's leave for tomorrow so that I can finish up early for Christmas so I'm going to have my cake just as soon as I get home

I would have said call too!

Given the problems, I think I'll be booking a day off work to make our reservations in March!!

Aww you have no idea, how this morning while in a panic that "I'd call..." was exactly what I needed to hear or I would have ended up still here right now trying to get all of them done lol it helped more than you know just to have that little bit off support

I would have said call too!

Bhahahaha well if its not all glitch free by March I dunno what we will do lol
I had no problems booking last year, I dont know what it is with the new system. I called and got all the reservations done in about 25mins which was magic because I was making so many and some for 4 people and others for 2!

All done now, Im here watching christmas tv and eating my weight in chocolate got to love Christmas time haha
