Can you use old MB for new trip?

Ah. I think there is "stuff" on her friends account as the friend is going on a Disney cruise shortly. I assume you would have a MDE for that as well.
Cruises are not in MDE. The only things that would merge over are things that were assigned to the friend entry that the other person created for her.
 
Having that other person invite her from her family & friend entry in their MDE account is the only way to get that MagicBand transferred over to her new MDE account that she controls. If she calls Disney, they are basically going to do the same thing.
 
Ohhhh what did you use on your band? I don't think ours are going to make it this year. Long story short after 4 calls the best they can tell me each time is call back in a week lol If we can find our last year bands I was going to try to re-image them. I love the look of yours!


Minute rhinestones and nailpolish... be warned this took me forever to do, with a cut off toothpick, and placing it carefully on the magic band. But I am a huge crafter, and out of everything I do for disney trips, this is the thing that has gotten me more comments than anything else.

Thanks! Havent received our bands yet today so i probably won't have time to do it then lol i did find our others last night though so i may see if i can redo those.
 

Thanks everyone! My advice to her will be to CALL WDW and ask, something she has not done as she thinks I have all the answers,LOL!

And yes, her friend had the original MDE account and she tried to add the MB to the MDE account she just crated for this trip. I WISH I had a friend pay for a trip for me, by alas I do not.

Well I'll give you this, you certainly came up with a unique problem that I haven't seen here..:rotfl2:...going off to take some extra strength aspirin now I think you gave her the best advice possible.
 
MagicBands can only be reused by the person to whom they were originally used by. They are linked to the biometric finger print that is taken upon entering the park each time. So, your friend can reuse her old MagicBands if she buys more park tickets and has them linked by Guest Services. Your family cannot use her family's MagicBands though.

Ok, so here is a question. I went to Ft. Wilderness for a camping trip with the cub scouts. We didn't link any tickets and never used the bands except to get into the bathroom at night and that doesn't require a finger scan. But I would imagine they are linked with the person who stayed at the resort, though we never registered the bands with an account. Could we give the bands to someone visiting still or not? I haven't asked and I have like 6 extra bands sitting in a drawer I don't have any use for, seems a waste to throw them away.

In this case (if all you say is correct,) yes.

Thanks!

We had 60 people in the group and not one had a ticket. some are already AP holders, like us, so the bands are just extra. You would think they could just go back and just give cards to the guests who don't have tickets, kind of a waste to me. But I will see if anyone can use the bands at some point rather than throw them out.
