Borrowing points then changing a reservation

[daraweb]

We have been DVC members for 5 years and have never banked or borrowed points, so I am still a little confused about some details. We are planning to book at VGF at our 11 month mark and will need to use our leftover 2015 points all 2016 points and borrow about 50 2017 points (we have a Dec UY). Ok, no problem yet.

At our 7 month mark we are going to try to switch to a different hotel that will use fewer points (possibly not even needing any of the borrowed points). How would this work? I am assuming that they would use the 2015 points, then the borrowed 2017 points and then pull from our 2016 points. Am I missing anything?

Hope this isn't confusing...if it is, I am happy to explain specifics.
Thanks so much for your help!

That is exactly what they should do. You will want to double check that is what is done though. After that you will be able to bank the 2016 points into your 2017 UY if you don't have a use for them in the 2016 UY but they will then have to be used by Nov 30, 2018.

Thanks! We are trying to save points to get to Aulani for the first time summer 2017 so we should just be able to use those 2016 points to book that reservation 7 months before our summer 2017 trip, right?

Yes, those 2016 points are valid for stays from Dec 1, 2016 thru Nov 30, 2017 so you don't have to bank and can just use them for the Summer 2017 stay.
