2009 ADRs -totally confused!!!

[Britt7]

Ok I am officially confused. I have talked to three different CM in my attempts to make our ADR's and told three different things
1. Due to changes in the system I can't make my ADR for January until October with the exception of CRT and Chef Mickey - we checkin on the
24th.
2. Called today (7/28)- day I was told and made ADRs for both CRT and Chef Mickey then CM asked if I wanted to make the rest of my ressie. I explained what i was told and she said that I could go ahead an book all my ADRs since we checkin on January 24th. Had to call back b/c I did not plan any others yet.
3, Called back AGAIN and attempted to book three more ADR and was told that I could not until (7/30) b/c it was more than 180 days out - my 180 days from checkin date was today.

In summation - I am totally confused. Which CM was right. I still need to make several more ADR and would like to do so as soon as possible in order to make sure we get all the ones we want. Anyone have a clue what is going on?

I am checking in on the 24th too and could only make reservations for the 24th and 25th because they are not taking for after Jan 25 any until OCTOBER! I called twice for this. But last week I called three people and NO ONE told me this.

If you are in a disney resort, and the first 180 day, you can book 10 days into your vacation, unless it is after Jan 25.

I am so annoyed....

I called today and was specifically told that I could only make ADRs for the 25th and after that, only for CRT and CM. (Today is my 180 days out, staying on-site.) Also told may need to wait until November to make the rest. And what a mess that will be....

NOVEMBER??? ugh, This is no good!

The first person I spoke with told me that the date was October 28th, but that I might want to try around the middle of October just in case everything (with the system change or whatever it is) goes well and is completed earlier than planned. So we have three possible dates to call - this just gets better and better! Also - I saw that rumor has it that the 2009 rates MAY be out Friday or Sunday. We are still up in the air about which resort - we have room only booked at All Star Movies - but hoping to switch to either Poly or CR.

I am going Jan 21-27. I called last Friday (180 days from check-in) and was able to book my ADR's for Jan 21-25 only. Couldn't book the 26th or 27th. . . . When I asked when I would be able to book those the CM put me on hold and then came back and said- "we have not been given an official date on when the bookings will open back up at this time." What ??? So I have nothing to go on from her. . . Most of the rumors I have heard are October. What a mess that will be when everybody is calling at the same time.

Just to update - I was able to call last week and made the rest of my ADR's. They are now letting you book up through February (22 I think). I managed to get all that I requested.
