So, I had a reservation last weekend in a 1 bedroom at VGF. The day of our arrival I received a phone call from Member Services saying that I was being bumped. I posted about it over on the "Miscellaneous" board when it happened.
Fast forward to this morning at work, where a colleague whose partner is a Disney media reporter for a famous Disney blog, tells me he mentioned the situation to his partner who said the reason we were bumped was so that media could come in for the weekend to stay at the new VGF rooms and be at the resort.
I am beside myself with anger over this situation. It puts the total lack of compassion, care, and lack of apology in perspective. This wasn't an accidental breakage situation. This was a purposive and willful last minute choice to prioritize media over DVC members.
Has this happened before? Is it standard procedure when opening a new DVC unit? What do y'all think about this? I am floored.
