Closing Time!!

[Htide]

So you were already a member? That's exciting!

Yes, I am an existing member. The add on has 220 banked points that I plan on giving to my brother. Hopefully they show up soon so I can book his trip for August. My niece has never been to DW. It will be a nice surprise.

I'm freaking out. Our deed was recorded on 6/2 or 6/3 per the comptroller website. Each time I've called Disney, I've gotten a different answer about when we'd get our number. Twice they said they didn't even receive the paperwork which is false information because another time one of the other gentlemen I spoke with said that he was able to find my paperwork. We are driving to Disney on Tuesday. A guy I spoke with on Friday said that he was going to ask for the paperwork to be expedited and that he'd follow up with me Monday morning. We will be there from June 17-July 3 and hoped to use points. Now I am wondering if we should book on site. Would anyone please be able to tell me if there is even availability at this point? We are willing to stay at different resorts if needed. Please assist me with knowing availability. This trip is for our son's birthday. Thank you so much!

How did things work out for you Hendercx?

Have a question for you guys. Is closing completed prior to the deed being recorded or is it after. I thought it was before the deed was recorded. Title company doesn't make it very clear. They said it will close sometime this week.

No I kept checking my account and this morning I noticed the new contract and updated points per UY. I may have jumped the gun, it's showing the 220 points for the current UY BUT 0 points available. I'll update once the points actually show up under available.

Did you have the same UY or a different one with the new contract?

It's just like closing on a house. They close and send the deed off to be recorded.

 

[Htide]

Did you have the same UY or a different one with the new contract?

Same UY and resort. The new contract has the same number as the old one only difference is a .1 was added to the new one.

Example:
1234567.0
1234567.1

That's what I thought. Thank you. The title company is dragging their feet.

 

[lisamwell]

Unlike buying a house, you don't get possession of it, till (apparently) they feel like it. At least that's how it sounds.

So. After many calls and many negative responses we finally were able to get our member number. Salita from member accounting transferred us to a woman ( I think Ashley? in member services) The bad news is our points and activation code aren't there yet so we can't book anything. Hoping for those tomorrow. Apparently they are really cracking down on not giving the member numbers out before the letters arrive now. One guy we talked to told us he could see the information, but after asking his superior he still wasn't able to give it to us. He seemed like he genuinely wanted to help us. I understand if this is the policy, but it seems ridiculous that in 2015 it should take this long. I really hope that after this is all said and done we are no longer treated as second class citizens because we bought resale. Sending pixie dust to everyone that they have an easier time than we are having We started this process in the end of February!

 

[BuzzyBelle]

Yeah, you're one step closer. When you get your points where are you hoping to book and what month

We have a reservation at yacht club for Aug 15 but we're hoping to change it to a DVC reservation. We bought at BCV so we aren't too upset about changing from yacht as we can always stay there on future trips. We are hoping to stay anywhere with availability. After talking to member services today it looks like we may be able to do a VWL /AKL split stay or SSR for the whole trip.

 

[SecretPoohLove]

We want to book BCV for next May. Renting the points to a friend for their first trip with their DS (5)

 

[summabreeze85]

deed recorded 6/2
contract in account 6/16 but no points
the first person I talked to said it could be 6 weeks...HA! she ha no clue. I asked her who else I could speak to and she contacted administration and they told her up to 48 hours, so by Thursday. Why do your points not get loaded at the same time the contract is input into the system? Wouldn't it make sense to do them together?

Yeah my title company is dragging their feet too. Took forever to get my closing docs after it came back from estoppel and they've had both my paperwork and the sellers paperwork for well over a week now yet it hasn't appeared to close yet.

Who is your title company?

 

[allison plevrakis]

Tried about a 1/2 hour ago. Nothing! Not even I see you but there's no number yet. Realistically hoping that it's by Thursday since that will be three weeks for us since closing. This is the most frustrating part so far for us!

Hope about you? Anything? Sending pixie dust!

Wally girl, I'm really hoping today is our day!

 

[Lakegirl]

We ended up booking Old Key West for August 24-30th, with a Waitlist at VWL our home. Hoping for some pixie dust. Also booking a trip for April 2016 at VWL. Good luck to everybody waiting!!! It really is so exciting to start planning and booking.

They have had my closing documents for 3 weeks.

Which title company? That is not normal.

 

[Disneychica18]

Timeshare title and more

 

[Lakegirl]

I feel so bad for everybody who used them. Is seems there are more people with problems from them than not. We used Timeshare store along with *** and they were so good!!! Very patient and took there time to answer all questions and the documents were sent within 2 days of them getting them.
