$49 a night at the All Stars

[Rhonda]

Cats Mom: I just got the rate and I asked if it was for any special states and she said no, that it was open to everyone. It took her awhile to search through her specials and find it though. At first she said there was a special for certain states at that rate, but then she searched further and found it. She also told me I don't need a special rate code or a postcard. We're going September 7th - $49/night ($54.88).

Thanks so much for posting Gillian and Rhonda. Gave it one more try and got the rate. It was not available for movies but was for music (2nd choice) Guess I'll be hanging out on the boards a lot more now getting ready for our trip -- yea! Sorry if a little attitude came through on the West Coast comment. I was very frustrated. Good Luck to everyone else still trying.

Just wanted to mention a few things.
If you have your heart set on the ASMo but are flexible with travel dates, ask for the dates you WANT to travel. If Movies is not available for those specific dates, ask the CM to check for ASMo for "around that timeframe" at the $49 rate.
Also, the travel dates do not have to end on the third of Oct. If the third is inc. in the timeframe, the $49 rate applies.
HTH someone!

Well, I finally got the $49 rate for August 25-Sept.1. I asked for the Fall Value Rate (I read it on another post) and can you believe they actually found it!! Yippee! The CO said it was a newspaper offer. There was no code or restrictions according to her. I must have asked her 20 times to double check to make sure I didn't need anything at check in, she assured me. Thank you all for all your help, and information. You all are the best!!

Well I am glad so many people have been able to get the rate. I just read through all of the posts in this thread and it hurt me that "bonehead" more or less called me a liar as I am the person who started this thread. I see that "bondhead" was able to get the $49 rate so I guess I am telling the truth.

I am glad that so many people have saved money on their upcoming trips and for those of you that have not had luck yet keep trying and good luck.

Just to repeat. I did not need a code. I just mentioned that a friend had been quoted a rate of $54.88 and that I was wondering if any more rooms were avaiable at that rate because I was looking for the best rate avaiable. It took two calls.

Good luck to all,

Tiffany

Because of your posts and the others that followed, I, too, was persistant and was able to secure this rate for our trip this fall. From the bottom of my wallet (oh, I meant heart!) - Thank you for posting this awesome deal.

To the other still trying, I did not have a code, I just mentioned that a friend told me. I, too, was told it was a Fla resident thing but, the CM was very diligent and checked into this further for me and FOUND it.

Be NICE and just keep trying until you find those wonderful CMs (I was hoping that they were still there in CRO (see earlier post questioning what has happened there)). My faith is renewed in Good Ole Disney.

Thanks again for the post and great sharing of information for the benefit of us all!

Have fun all!

I called 5 times in a row tonight. The first 4 times I was told I need a code or a package name. The last time I got a WONDERFUL CM who didn't find it but put me on hold and talked to her supervisor. She came back and she it looked like we were all set. I asked what the name of the package was and she said that there was no name for it. I was able to get ASMo. I asked her no less than 4 times if she was sure that I did not need ID from a particular state or a postcard, etc. to check in. She assured me that I did not. She said that if something like that was required, that she would type it in on the comments and it would appear on the ressie at the hotel when we got there. She said that she was not typing in anything that I would need to show.I'm still a little leery. I hate to cancel my ressies with my AAA discount and get there and find out that they are going to charge me full price because I needed some ID for the $49 special. Argggghhhh. Should I be worried? We all know that the CMs aren't always well informed and we've heard disaster stories about check in. This one seemed on the ball though and was very helpful.

Yay going Sept. 30th thru Oct. 11th....thank you!!

I WAS ALSO WORRIED ABOUT COUNSELING MY OTHERS?

Thank you very much Tiffany and all of you who post your success/failure to get this rate. After three calls, I finally got the All Star Movies for $49 plus taxes for the end of August. The last cm I talk to did not know that special rate but he talked to someone and then told me that this rate was valid for me, even if I live in Canada. I am so happy!

 

[bonehead]

it seems that some people have taken my skepticism of the rate as some kind of personal
attack. that would be totaly inaccurate. at no time did i point a finger or even state the claims of the rate were false. i merely expressed my own doubts. if you read my post's it was a matter of opinion. something we are entitled to and we all know everyones opinion stinks. my theory is if it sounds too good to be true it probably is ,and it generally keeps me from making expensive mistakes.
the thing about the internet and forums is that its difficult to show mirthful disbelief , as was my intent. i dont really have the time or patience
for smilies . thats why i also dont use caps or a lot of punctuation. if anyone took this personaly , (tiffany) you shouldnt. i didnt flame anyone (as seems i am being),call names , or speak harshly. so that aside , i will say good luck to all congrats to those who have been diligent enough to nail down the rate. and if anyone wants to know what i feel is the easier way to obtain the rate ,leave me a post here .and i will help in anyway i can. although there doesnt seem to be any one method more effective than another. take care al

Tiffany - Thanks for all the great info!

Bonehead - Lots of the stuff you see here seems unreal. Great deals when all you've ever seen for disney are rack rates? who knew? BUT, it's important to remember when posting that it is often difficult to get your true meaning across in writing, especially with sarcasm, humor, etc. That's why people use smilies. There are lots of nice people here, and they will forgive you (if you apologize). Still, it is worth it to take a few extra minutes to make sure that your intent gets across.

I would be interested in hearing your suggestions. It's so crazy trying to get these discounts!

 

[bonehead]

gillian , i dont call myself bonehead for nothin!
i'm a stubborn "i'll believe it when i can squash it in my hands" kind of guy . tink05 can attest to that (my wife) and i expect she cringes at my every post. but any way i think your best bet here is disney direct ,thats the 407 # . the thing here is though is the wording you use. the offer really isnt a package since its for the room only. you need to make that clear to whoever you speak to . it is also important i feel to use the "fall value rate" and give the dates its covers. i made at least 20 calls to the 800# and i when mentioned the dates the girl asked me if i was really going to stay 55 nights!!! i replied that if i was i would be staying in the castle because i would have to own disney to afford that. but as soon as i called the 407 # the woman found it right away but had a hard time believing it herslef so she dug into it to clarify the details. it isnt the FLA residents only offer . she did ask where i was from but didnt mention anything regarding regional restrictions. just make it clear it isnt a package its for the room only and make sure they understand also its not per person. i think if do it that way you will get it as well. good luck i hope this helps somehow. keep us up on your progress. i hate seeing everyone going through all of this hassle for what should be an enjoyable time

I have only posted here 1 other time, but I read here all the time. I just had to say that I called this morning, twice, and the second time I got the $49.00 rate for the ASmo, going the first week in Sept. I am just thrilled!! The first CM I talked to said I had to have a postcard and I couldn't get anywhere. The second person I talked to found the rate in a minute and said nothing was required at check in. I asked him several times to make sure, and he assured me nothing was required. I also cancelled ressies I had previously made, so I am hoping that this all turns out ok! This is our first trip, so saving this money made it even better, thanks to all of you and your great tips!!
