AAA, and other vendors, have great deals on combo tickets that include SW, Aquatica and BG. I don't know why you're calling, the offer says it applies to park admission on or after 7/4/2010. Seems clear you won't be able to use your ticket on 7/3. I checked the "fine print". You have to purchase this ticket at least 5 days in advance. You waited too long. I definitely wouldn't try to use the ticket before the effective date. At best you'll have to wait on the line to pay the price difference. At worse you'll have to buy a brand new ticket and keep your ticket for a future trip. I don't there is any chance the computer will let you use your ticket prior to the effective date.
