$49 a night at the All Stars

[cats mom]

I tried with no luck. I guess it depends who you talk to -- I will keep pestering but if anyone who got the rate could post with the name of the promo the CM I talked to said that might help. Thanks

I called this morning too and got the low rate for Aug. 24 and Sept. 1-4 (going around our DVC week). My CRO agent had a little trouble finding it at first and did ask if I had a code, but kept at it and finally found the $49 rate. At the end, I did ask her if it had a "name" so I could tell someone else and she said it did not, to just have them ask for the $49 special rate or the $54.88 with tax that runs from Aug - Oct. She said they should be able to find it with that info. I got AsMo, but all 3 resorts were available this morning at about 10:30. Good luck all!!

were those of you who got the $49 rate able to use your disney club card for additional savings? and were you able to claim the free disney$$$ with it as well? tia

I did not have a code. It took two calls to get the $49 rate. The second CM was very nice and I told her I had heard about a $54.88 rate from a friend and that I was looking for the best rate avaiable for my time frame of Sept 1st through the 10th. It took her a few minutes but she seemed excited that she had found the rate. I put a one night deposit on my AmEx and requested Clyspo building and a non smoking room.

I've seen that a few people have now been able to get this low price of $49 a night, my question is, once the cro found the offer what was the code or offer called? The cro said I need this to get the price! Thanks!

I told her my dates Aug.6-16 and at the All Stars any of them at $49.ngt or 54.88 w/ tax I also mentioned there was no code or package. What have I left out or what do I not know that I need to know?

does anyone remember last year ..the disney dollar fiasco and i believe many of us called "marty" (i think that was his name) in customer relations. those of you who are being treated rudely should call and complain.there is just ABSOLUTELY NO EXCUSE FOR THEIR BEHAVIOR!!!!

still waiting for a reply to my previous post a few up

I guess I just got lucky same as Tiffany two phone calls, one Sunday other earlier this afternoon. I just was very casual about it and mentioned the August 9th - Oct. 4th time frame and the 49.00 price and it took about 3-4 minutes for the CM to find it, she also seemed happy to find it for me and enjoyed helping me book a bargain. No code, no nothing!

I can certainly sympathize with everyone's frustrations though, at first she didn't find it and my heart just sank. I called my DH afterward and was so excited but I don't think he understands what hoops I jump through like last year I was so excited to get MKC at WL in Dec. and he just doesn't get it????

I called twice today. Both times I was put on hold for several LONG minutes while the operators spoke to their manager. Both times they came back saying there is no such deal and that I needed a code to get a better price. BOTH OPERATORS WERE EXTREMELY RUDE!!!! I already have reservations and have always stayed on property. Now I'm thinking of cancelling them and staying at the Swan/Dolphin instead!

 

[simba2]

I've called 3 times and spoke to nice CM's all 3 times. The woman tonight went out of her way and went through all the discounts. She said that the one that she could find running for those dates was "direct marketing" (postcard) and that you had to have a pin # and then the postcard at check in. I told her that my "friend" (you guys!) were able to get it without a code and it wasn't direct marketing. She could find nothing. One CM this a.m. told me that if I had the code that I could call back with it and they'd be able to find it. Does anyone have a code.

P.S. the guy in the Disney Dollar fiasco -- I seem to remember his name was Joe.

....I was gonna call in the AM to try and get ASMo at this rate. Better cross my fingers and all that jazz.

I tried three times (twice on sat. & once on Sun.) to get this rate and was unsuccessful. One of the CM gave me a code that was this rate but said it was for Florida residents only. I was able to get another code from another poster but it was also only for Floriday residents. As I live in Canada, this was no use to me. I settled for a reservation at the Dolphin for $129 /night using the nurses rate.

It would be helpful to know... I think tmarr asked this already. Please help, anyone?

The first call was to a CM who asked me if I wanted her to go through 8,000 pages of information to find it. I could tell it would not be a pleasant time one the phone! So I hung up and dialed again. (4;30 pm 3/12) Got a female Cm who was happy to look but said it may take a while! No problem. She finds one for FL residents. I say no, that won't work. I quote the prices, the dates to help her. There! She says she found availability at all 3 AS, which one do I want. I will feel better when I get the confirmation nthe mail.
It is so frustrating, but I have gotten some good rates in the last 3 years just by perservering. Hang in there!!

 

[PennyHM]

I have called a few times. Was told that rate was for cast members. I told each person that I was told the rate "the person I know" was available for anyone. After tons of checking, no one could find it. The last person said if I could get my friend's information (name ressie is under, arrival date or "better yet a reservation number") then the CRO could pull that up and find the information for the rate for me. Is anyone willing to share any of their info w/ me so I can get the rate too? Please email me at pennyhm@aol.com or pennyhm@msn.com if so. Thanks a ton!
Oh, all the staff I talked to were more than helpful but could not find the rate of $49 per night plus tax and needed more info to go on.

...my post disappeared so thought I would repost my experiences. I tried a few times and noone could find the $49/night rate. They all said that is a Cast Member rate. The last person I talked with said if I could give her more info to go on, it would be beneficial. She said my "friend's" name and arrival date would even help. I will try again later but wish I had something to go on. Thanks for the tip and let's hope I get this rate! My son wants the ASMo LOL

What a great CM I had on the phone! I told him about the great rate I had heard of and he tried really, really hard to find it but all he could find was the $49 Fla. resident rate. In his searching he did mention a special rate at the Moderates.So when it was apparent that he wasn't going to find the $49 special I was hoping for I booked DxL at $89 +tax/nite...Not what I was quite hoping for but not bad at all....I hung up actually pleased with the rate I got....
Two hours later I received a phone call from the same GREAT CM! He told me that he felt so bad that he couldn't find the $49 rate that on his break he asked around and was able to track it down! He then asked did I still want it! After I booked ASMo for 7 nites I asked to speak to his supervisor so that I could let her know how this Special CM had gone the extra mile and treated me as if I was someone really special...Made my day for sure!
I can't wait to get the actual reservation in my hand! Good luck to everyone..keep trying!

I called twice first time no luck. Second time called and said I heard of a $49 special for the All Star Resorts running from 8/9/01 - 10/3/01 and wanted to check the availability for a few dates. I checked one week all where available except Movies then checked another week and got the Movies for the above dates. It was not too bad just give them the specific date range and refer to the $49 special for that time frame. Good Luck!!

 

[WDW/Wendy5]

<Font Color=red> Hi again, I have been trying for three days now. Each CM says there is nothing or that I need a code or package name. Would any of you lucky one who got this great rate be willing to call them back and find out what the code or package name is? And if they tell you there isn't one then ask them how your friend can refer to it. Or maybe one of you might be willing e-mail me some info or get my info and book it for me saying you want to book another room with the same rate under my name? any help would be great!!!<font
