$49 All Star Rate Check Confirmation Carefully

[Tiffany]

Hi,

I just received my confirmation in the mail today and to my suprise there was a note on it "proof of residence required at check-in". When I booked this rate I called and had no code and asked for the best rate avaiable for my time frame. It was the CM that put me on hold and came back on in a few minutes to tell me she had found the rate and that nothing special was needed it was open to everyone. She know I lived in MA because I gave her my home address.

So I called CRO as soon as I read this tonight and I got a very nice CM who was suprised that I was given this rate without a code and that I had the rate even though I lived in MA. She put me on hold for a long time but came back on and said her and her superviosr had "changed the code" on my ressie so that I would not be asked for ID and that they would send me out a new confirmation slip. She said that the code the other CM had put on my ressie was a Flordia residence code and that I would have been asked to prove I lived in Florida.

So read your confirmatons carefully and call if yours notes that proof of residence is required.

I asked the CRO CM if Florida residence was required and she said no, it didn't matter where you lived. Disney really needs an overhaul of CRO.

Thanks for the advice!!

There was a separate code that was just for FL residents. The first CM I spoke to found this one but not the one for everyone. So, it probably was an honest mistake but it would be a good thing to check your confirmation slips when they arrive.

I agree check your confirmation but also note that there were several codes going around,
I live in CA and the code I used was for a "Fall Value Rate". So do check your confirmations but dont lose sleep over it you may have been booked on a reservation that doesn't require any proof of residence... Hope it works out for all!!

Thanks for the info! I just got mine & it says something like Fall direct mail value rate. Nothing about residency is mentioned. I asked if a postcard would be required & was tolf no.

There must have been a lot of $49 rates available!

Everything was fine, just present confirmation and id and we're set for 10 days! Only thing on there was Fall Value rate and that was it! Now IF I can just get a Winter Value rate for our December trip!

Got mine today. It says something about the value direct mail Apr/May (fall rates) on it. I called to triple check that I don't need a postcard and was told again that I do not. The "direct mail" part makes me nerveous thinking that they'll ask for a postcard, but I was told when I made the ressie that I didn't need one and every CM I've called and asked says I don't, so I'll just keep my fingers crossed.

Okay, so I received my "modified" confirmation slip and now it notes "hispanic room only" but the proof of residency required note was still there. So I called for a third time and this CM apoligized and stated she would take the note off and mail out another confirmation slip. So now I am waiting for my third confirmaiton slip. I am not canceling by Dolphin ressie until I have this slip in hand.

I got the hispanic room only rate also but no proof of residence note on mine.

I was wondering the others at the all star that got the $49 fallvalue rate did they use a code or not when they called CRO? I tried asking for the fall value rate without a code and it didn't work.

I called this morning and asked for the Fall Value Rate. Clerk asked for code, I gave it to her. She said she didn't see it anywhere. When I went into detail, ie. rate, dates available, and what resort it was available, she suddenly said, "Since you know all that, I've found it." (Curious I think) But I did get the $49 rate for Sept. 8-13. Oh, yea, at the beginning she did ask me if I was a Florida resident and I said no and that was that on the residency issue. Good Luck to all.

Hi there I'm responding to Zurgswife's question and yes I needed a code to get that rate. I tried quite a few codes with an extremely nice CM and after trying 2 other codes the last one I gave her worked for me.
