Can You Pay Online for Room Only Reservations?

[Renee1061]

I currently have two room only reservations. I paid the deposit, of course, at the time I made the reservation. I made one reservation online and one by phone. I am able to pull up both reservations online, but I can't find a place to make a payment. Can I do this online, or do I have to call?

I'm pretty sure you can't make payments on room-only reservations anymore. The balance has to be paid at check-in.

Actually, you can make payments on a room-only reservation. As a matter of fact you can even pay more than what is owed, the Disney representative will escrow your funds into a reserve funds section under your reservation which can be used towards ticket purchases, dining, etc. or you can have the funds refunded to the credit card that was used to place the reservation upon completion of your stay. I have been using this tactic for the past three years and everything works out perfectly when I arrive to check-in. There is no need to worry about maxing out the credit/debit cards and the reserve funds will be there at your disposal. You cannot use this method on Disney packages, Disney will not allow it.

How were you able to do this and did you do it recently ? I called and asked if we could prepay our stay at BWI this July, I was told no 4 times by 4 different persons.
