Any OCTOBER guests received FP+ testing invite?

[maurihart]

I got mine today. Woke up with the email saying they had shipped and they were here before 10am. So crazy! We are going oct 19-25 as well.

Magic Bands have been delivered; can't wait for 4:45 to arrive so I can go home and look at them! No invite yet from Disney to participate in the FP+ test.

it will come tomorrow. That's when mine did. Lol

 

[ohboyx3]

seems like there are a lot of us checking in on October 19th. Just checked Touring Plans again- October 20-25th still at 4's, 3,2,1

We are the 18th... Seems that everyone is checking in around that time... No dinner openings anywhere! Glad I planned ahead!

I sure hope crowds are good. Makes me nervous.

YOU NEED TO READ THEM!!! Disney Destinations is also who sends the PIN codes for discount offers. You don't want to accidentally delete a good deal!

Well guess what? I just got the email from Disney Destinations inviting me to participate in the test, lol! Says to customize my magic bands by 10/7. The ones I received yesterday. LOL!

I got the same email an hour ago!

So to recap,

Yesterday morning UPS brings me my bands
This morning UPS brings me a letter inviting me to test My Magic+
This afternoon I get an email inviting me to test My Magic+

I feel so important.

Same thing happened to me, and it cost me 35 bucks. When I went outside to get the unknown package(the letter) I was waylaid by two adorable children selling cookie dough an Yankee candles for their school. I had to buy something from each of them.

I didn't get the paper letter. I guess I'm not important.

me neither!

first set of magic bands arrived yesterday, today we got the email, and the disney site says our second set of magic bands is customized and shipping soon. (doing a split-stay, so 2 sets of bands). i never got the UPS letter, though, and thought it was funny we got the email after our first set of bands!

we'll be at WDW from Oct 18-24, and hoping for low crowds after the first weekend is over. then again, my FP+ is already set and an awesome schedule, and if the only other thing i have time to do is eat at the food and wine festival, that's ok with me!

 

[mollygirl13]

Just booked my trip for October 17-21 with three girlfriends. Booked 4 days ago.
We are racing in the Orlando Dragon Boat Festival at DTD on the 18th and 19th.

SOOO happy I logged onto My Disney Experience and there was the page to customize my MagicBand!! You would've thought I won Powerball by the way I was jumping up and down!! I swear my husband thinks I am bonkers.

Got my MagicBand yesterday morning! I keep staring at it.

Oh, and I got my letter today!

Yay for me!

Well, Disney made a liar out of me. DH just came home and brought me a UPS envelope that was stuck in the front door. Yep, it was our invitation! I went in and out today through the garage so didn't notice it was there. Nice to know we're official!

Received our MB's today for checkin on Oct 19th, *jumping up and down and trying it on for size as we speak* AND....I've also been stalking the BOG FP website for the past month and, as usual, checked it first thing this morning to no avail BUT, I was feeling lucky because the MB's came today so I tried the BOG website again about 5 minutes ago and low and behold it work... IT WORKED.....I was actually able to book the BOG lunch FP, Wooo-Hoooo !!!!!! Picked out all of our meals and everything So anyone wanting to do the BOG lunch FP......run, don't walk to your computer.

Thanks!
