If you're use year Month is the same it should be under same number otherwise they'll send you a new number and have to set-up that membership and merge with your profile. Enjoy!

Quick question ... I see my new contract in my DVC account, correctly listed as 100 points at VGF. However, it shows no points available for the next four years. I assumed the transfer isn't quite finished yet, and maybe they still need to put the points in. Is this normal? How much longer might that part of the process take? We're trying to wait list VGC for September, so the sooner the better.

Edit: Funny enough, I was able to wait list even though I didn't have any points "available." So hopefull the points are loaded before (if!) the wait list comes through.

Points showed up in our account today, so the turnaround after closing was pretty quick!

That's great news! Congrats.

May I ask what day your deed was recorded?

This is what I got in the mail today:


There is the points brochure, magnets, and a generic SSR document stating annual dues and other boring things. No member number paperwork or cards . Of note is that the mail came from "Innotrac Corp" 2200 Cedars Rd, Lawrenceville, GA. No mention of Disney on the package. It was sent priority 2 day.

No idea. Not even sure how to find that out. We were notified we had closed on April 14.

Will resale purchasers who already have a contract get a packet like that? All I really want are the car magnets, and we didn't get anything like that when we bought in 2011.

 

[ScubaCat]

That's the standard packet you get when you buy resale now. The member number comes in a separate regular letter.

Innotrac is a marketing company I actually agreed to interview with about 15 years or so ago! I ended up cancelling the interview due to taking a different job, but it's weird how stuff like that comes full circle. Seeing that company name and address made me laugh for some reason.

Doubtful unless you establish a new membership (different UY). I'll sell you one of my magnets... for one MILLION dollars!

Will you accept a third-party, out-of-state, bad check?

 

[ScubaCat]

Will you accept a third-party, out-of-state, bad check?

Sure! I prefer the "starter" checks with no info on them. They're especially fun.

BTW, the magnets are fine, but they're UBER-cheapo quality. Literally, they could not be any thinner or they'd disappear, and the sticky stuff on the back needs multiple treatments of goo-gone to remove. One good rain and they'll definitely be goners. Ours are repurposed as refrigerator magnets.

 

[SuperRob]

I hear that. I just had a car wash destroy our DVC license plate frame. I wish Disney wouldn't cut corners on this stuff. I'd pay for good quality stuff.

17.99 for that crappy plastic license frame. I'd return it if it weren't such a hassle and the shipping cost. What a shame they peddle such garbage nowadays.

Could someone post the number and option numbers to use for member services? I saw it posted before but now I can't find it. Today is day 14 to post closing for me. I can't wait until day 14 so I can attempt to get my number. I'm from Houston and with all of the flooding recently, our mail has been a little bit behind. I hope I get my letter soon.

My contract was submitted for ROFR on 4/25. Based on browsing this thread, it seems like it takes ~65-110 days to actually receive your member number from there. I'm a little concerned because the contract has 2015 points that need to be banked by 7/31, which would be 97 days. So if it slips towards the high end I could be out of luck.

My seller is international- do they have to actually physically mail the closing docs or can they email them? I’m worried if they have to mail overseas it will delay things towards the high end.

Thanks!

They have to mail them because they need to be notarized.

They have to mail them because they need to be notarized.

You should find out if the seller can bank those points now.
