I think you closed right around the time I did (I closed Oct 26). Everything I've read says to wait until around day 12. You can try sooner around day 8-9 but being in the system then is rare. You may just want to wait a few days.

I called today and was given everything!! Points are completely loaded and I am planning away!!

So I have a question.. first contract.. We Closed on Oct 22nd. But the deed was not recorded until 11/2. When is a reasonable time to call to request a member number? what information do I need ? My contract number? thanks! I am trying no to be impatient...

Our first purchase: AKV

Offer submitted/accepted: 9/2
Passed ROFR: 9/22
Closing Docs Received: 10/17
Returned: 10/19
The seller took a week to send in paperwork. It felt like our title company was really slow.
Closed and Recorded: 11/1

Now the excruciating wait until we can call to get our member # and book a trip. Almost there!

Who was your title company?

Who was your title company?

Our title company was Timeshare Title and More. We submitted our closing docs paperwork on 10/19. They confirmed receipt on 10/20. We sent a note to them on the evening of 10/24 asking status of the seller's paperwork. Received a reply email on 10/26 confirming that they had received the sellers paperwork on 10/25. Paperwork finally submitted for closure on 10/31. Maybe my expectations are unreasonable, but this seemed long to me based on what I'm seeing on the forums.

I know TT&M used to ask Disney to confirm the status of the contract (points avail and such) again immediately prior to closing the sale to ensure the seller hadn't used any of the points listed as part of the sale. That caused a slight delay in closing-not sure if they are still doing that.

It's looking like at least 10 days...I was recorded on 10/31...Still nothing in my account today is the 10th day. I'm going to call tomorrow if i don't get anything by the end of today

 

[longboard55]

Mine is in California if that makes a difference, but they received the docs, closed and recorded all on the same day- 10/31. Have not checked for a number yet. I will wait for summabreeze

[longboard55]

recorded 10/31, so its 12 days, double strike out today, I tried option 3 and the lady was no help, then I called back and tried option 1 and they looked me up but said since I paid in full they do not have the number yet. Trying to make a 7 month birthday, will be close. How long does it take top get a packet

I would try again. We closed on 10/31 and recorded on 11/1 and I was able to get the member number on Wednesday,11/9. I called and used Option 3 which was Member Accounting. The lady told me I should wait for the packet in the mail. I told her I really wanted to book a vacation. She transferred me to Member Administration and the lady was very helpful. I was able to get my member number from her. Then they transferred me to Website Support for the activation code.

 

[summabreeze85]

I clicked option 2 and somehow did not get the right person. the guy was really nice and transferred me to member administration. When the lady answered the phone i asked if she could check on a resale membership transfer for me because i have points expiring at the end of this month. she took my name, the sellers name, and the contract number. She came back and told me she didn't have the transfer documents or the deed. That's weird, it was recorded on 10/31. She said the only thing she had was the estopped which she sent the title company on 10/12. She said i'd need to call my broker. i immediately contacted fidelity and first american title. they were quick to respond. Angelo told me he did in fact send it on 10/31 and copied and pasted the proof. he said he contacted disney. at the time he was writing me they had already responded. they told him they were going to work on membership today and monday. All of this took place around 2pm. the contract is in my account! but no points are loaded. i hope i don't have to wait until monday for that.

I have no idea how we got so lucky on the very last-minute Christmas booking! Must have been karma for the sellers taking so long on closing docs!

 

[goofy78]

Called and got my member ID and activation code but I keep getting an error saying please enter a valid club ID. I even called back to double check the number and its still not working. Am I using the wrong number?

Never mind. Called a third time and got the correct number. Needed the club ID not member ID. Now just waiting for points to be loaded.

 

[goofy78]

Points loaded today and booked for May and October!!!

Already a member so points should load soon. All in all, very happy they closed so fast so that we didn't have to pay MF as part of closing process - much faster compared to our original purchase last year.
