My guide finally came back to me and they will not give me a 1 week extension on my developer points. His suggestion was;

' to book a week at Saratoga Springs and deposit it in the RCI network and that will give you an extra 2 years to withdraw it for a future vacation'

Can someone please explain this to me????
 
you can deposit the points with RCI.

RCI will then use your points to reserve a reservation at SSR, and in exchange, will allow you to book a reservation at another RCI timeshare at some point in the next couple of years. you would not be able to book at DVC but at least the points would not go to waste. (you should probably try to plan well in advance in order to find availability through RCI. also, there will probably be some additional fees for trading out of the DVC system.)
 
completly new to this.

What is RCI and what are the costs involved in this?
 
RCI is a timeshare exchange broker - people give up their time (usually a week) at a timeshare that they own and RCI tries to match them with another timeshare deposited by someone else at for a different period of time and location.

go check out the DVC member site for more info, but here are some of the basics:

How much are the transaction fees and when are they collected?
Disney Vacation Club Members will pay a non-refundable US$95 transaction fee at the time of making a waitlist request or confirming instant availability.

For exchanges through RCI, you have the option of depositing your reserved weekly Disney Vacation Club Resort accommodations into the RCI exchange system and then deciding later where, when and how long you'd like to travel.

Deposit First
The earlier you contact Member Services to discuss deposit options with your Vacation Advisor, the more flexibility you'll have for your future exchanges.
If you decide to deposit your reserved Disney Vacation Club Resort accommodations early, you will have the capability to search as far out as 24 months from your desired check-in date for weekly exchanges through RCI. Or you may look as far out as 10 months in advance of your desired check-in date for nightly and Signature Selections exchanges through RCI.
Depositing inventory into the RCI exchange system is subject to availability. Disney Vacation Club must be able to provide inventory within the same Use Year of the inventory deposited.
