Bank One's Disney Rewards Card

[SimbaNoodle]

Can my Disney Rewards Card be used on the ship to pay on my bill as I go?

Thanks.

you should be able to use any credit card/cash stc to pay your tab at any point in the cruise

Yes you should be able to give them your Disney Rewards Card and have the funds credited to your onboard account. You can do this at the beginning of your cruise or any time during it.

I'm very excited about this. We starting using our Disney Visa instead of our debit cards. We've racked up $224.00 in reward bucks!

Hello, Shore Excursions!!!

We starting using our Disney Visa instead of our debit cards.

We have, just recently, started doing the same thing.

I just paid my first bill, a few days ago. When do you start seeing your rewards in the "Manage Rewards" area on their website? My balance still says 0.

you will see the rewards on your first statement providing you have made purchases over $100. remember you get 1 drd for every $100 in purchases only totaling 100. plus. if you are to receive bonus dollars they will show up 4-6 weeks later depending on how your bill closes. just remember you should allow 2 weeks to get the card unless you are able to pick one up at the parks

Is there a bonus period now. I got my card in April, and I thought I read here that there was some some sort of bonus going on until June.

We didn't make $100 in purchases on our first bill, but we have well over that now. Shouldn't the rewards show up on the website? Or don't they show up until after the first paper bill has them on?

Yes. If I understand this correctly:

You will get 2 Disney Dollars for each purchase over $150,
otherwise you get the standard 1 Disney Dollar.

So if I purchased an item for $200, I would get 4 Disney Dollars.
If I purchased an item for $100, I would get 1 Disney Dollar.

Clarification, please:

Are you saying that the bonus dollars are awarded for INDIVIDUAL PURCHASES over $100? So that only a large purchase merits rewards?

Or are you saying that a TOTAL BILL FOR THE MONTH of over $100 receives bonus dollars? So that five $20 purchases would count toward the rewards?

Finally, just stating the obvious: Regardless of the answer above, this program is worthless UNLESS you pay off your balance every month. If you are paying interest at 18+% to recoup a 1% reward, you're losing money hand over fist. On the other hand, if you do pay your balance in full each month, it's a good way to save towards a Disney trip.

I was wondering with the Rewards Card, can you pay your bill online by Electronic Transfer from you Checking/Saving Account? Also, how many times a month can you make a payment?

 

[arlenesp]

hi,here's what I know about the reward program.The reward dollars don't show up til your statement for that billing cycle closes . an example of the double bonus is as follows. If your spending threshold is 150 and you spend 350 then you would get double only over the 150.you still get the 1% on all purchases for that statement as well. and the bonus dollars apparently take some time to show up. usually the next statement or 2. hope this helps

WSCATO....

Yes, you sure can pay online, it's a breeze to set up. Everything is spelled out on the Bank One website...

I didn't get any bonus points for my purchases over $150. Too bad. I would have earned a lot.

The rewards points did not show up on the website until the day my statement was mailed.

The online payment thing was very easy. One thing to be aware of....it shows pending charges, which should be fine. They say in very rare instances that a charge might remain on the pending after it already posted, but would drop off quickly. I have found it isn't rare at all, but a constant. I actually called a couple of times because I was afraid my card number was being used by someone else because of the pending charges. They just had not dropped off yet. Sometimes the pending amounts shows for over a week after it has actually posted.
