Birthday Pin Code!

[stazmatic]

Man, I wish my daughter could get a code! We're probably taking her for her 4th b-day in November, regardless of a deal, but even if I do register her, that code will be lost to the 'age requirement for making reservations'!

Good for you!

I just got a pin code in my name yesterday valid from 6/1 - 6/8 because I registered my daughter whose 14th birthday is 6/3. It was for 40% off select resorts. I rented DVC points which turned out to be really cheap. But had I known I would get a 40% off pincode I definitely would have waited!

Not sure if this will happen to everyone but I hope it does!

Sweet! It sounds like you all are celebrating summer birthdays - so I am guess that these codes are going out around 60 days prior to the birthday time. (maybe? ). Ava's b-day is in early November. I know that's a low-tide attendance time, so I am hopeful we'll get a code, too! DH just told me this morning that we definitely can go, if I can make it work $-wise. I guess I should register now...

Mine just came 13 days in advance................

Has anyone else received a Bday pin code? Thanks.

 

[SummerGirl]

and I haven't received one. Oh man, that would have been nice too!! I was originally booked during my b'day week then cancelled, and now I'm wishing I hadn't. Oh well, hoping for a next time!!

aww I wish I had known this in march when I was with my neice for her birthday...

I just registered my DH's birthday yesterday. I'm booking us tomorrow for our stay in October, which starts on his birthday! I'm hoping now we might actually have a hope of getting a PIN. Glad I stumbled on this thread!

I so hope so too. We are going Aug 8-18 and are missing the other deals!! My Dh birthday is the 17th, really hoping for a discount besides AAA.

Wishing and hoping like crazy for a PIN for my b-day in December.

I am really siked I just recieved an email pincode for 40% off for most stays 7/1/0- 7/31/09. It says Make your Birthday Celebration into a sweet vacation! I registered on the WDW site for the free on your bday deal and I already have Poly CL booked for 7/1 to 7/7 with 35% off code for general public. This new code now saves me an additional $250.

Can you tell me the web site address, and where to go once I get there to register for a birthday pincode?

DS's b-day is Aug 8th.....registered back in the day and still no pin code.

I got one, too. We were already booked and paid for on an AP super duper deal, LOL. I called anyway, just to see if it would save me some money.
My AP deal was greater.
Was still EXCITED to have received it. LOL.

To register you just login to the Disney world website and click on the bottom where it says "What will you celebrate, free admission on your birthday"! Good luck!

Just bumping to see if ppl are continuing to receive birthday pins? We aren't going until October, so we've got a while to wait to see if we get one, but it will make me more hopeful if the trend continues.

DS's b-day is Aug 8th.....registered back in the day and still no pin code.

My DS birthhtday is also 8/8...just a few days ago ( Friday)I called and booked CR for 3 nights on the 35% code, I was out and about so called from my cell to make ressies. Got home and checked my email...low and behold there was a PIN for MY birthday which is 7/7. ( dates if stay 7/1-7/31) I called right back, explaining that I had just booked a stay, that I rec'd a code for my bday, but we were arriving 8 days later than the code dates for DS Bday. CM had me read her the series of #'s on my PIN, checked and said they would be valid for the August dates we had just booked, saving me an additional $400 ( CR MK view) over the 3 nights! I think DS must be in line to receive a PIN, and that is how we were able to apply my code for his dates. Hang in there everyone, technically I rec'd the PIN for my bday only 12 days prior to my actual birthday, so you may still be receiving one! We are going to be there before FD starts as well, and there seems to be a lot of resort availability that week,,,except for the opening of BLT...so maybe that has something to do with our dates being honored as well?
Good luck everyone!

I received this email a couple of days ago. I had registered my fiance's birthday and though the email was addressed to me, it said his name. According to the email, the pin code, for 40% off moderates, is good for all but one night in August -the night we check in. When I called for a price quote with the pin, I could have sworn the CM said that it was good for basically the rest of the year. No plans for a second trip this year. The code would save me $7 from our B4G3 package. Not worth the hassle ohanging/modifying the reservation

but you couldn't use this with free dining, could you?????

For those of you who have received birthday PINS it seems that they are being received after the date that you would have paid off your package (if you are travelling for your birthday). So how does Disney apply the discount - do they give you a refund?

 

[FINFAN]

The Bday PIN is a room only code...so it does not require a package, tho you can certainly add dining and tix if you prefer. By keeping it room only, you have the usual 5 or 6 days before arrival to cancel, You are correct if you add and book a package tho, you are no longer outside the 45 day mark so should be sure of your plans. If ( as I think you are asking) you are applying the code to existing paid off ressies, then yes, WDW would credit you back. Easier if going to a credit card, quicker. If paid in cash, I would call and ask the proceedure.

We already have a package booked for October, arriving on my DH's birthday. By the sounds of it, if we get a code we will have already paid for our package, so I wondering how this would work? Would they apply it towards the room portion of our package & refund us? Of course I'm putting the cart way before the horse here ... (hoping we actually get the code)
