Banking question

[schoen]

I know that I should know this, and I am sure I could find out quickly by calling MS, but I thought I would try here first. I banked some points from last year in August. My use year is April. When do I need to use those points before I lose them?

When you say you banked your points in August, do you mean Aug 2005 or Aug 2006?

If you banked the points in Aug 2005, then they were '05 UY points and you banked them into your '06 UY. In that case, they expire on Mar 31, 2007.

If you banked the points in Aug 2006, then they were '06 UY points and you banked them into your '07 UY. In that case, they are good for stays from Apr 1, 2007 until Mar 31, 2008.

In addition to calling MS, you can also check your point status on the DVC members' website! Very handy when you want to double check things like this.
