Closing Time!!

[RachStu]

Well 16 days after our resale contract was added to our membership our points have still not been loaded. I’ve emailed and haven’t received a reply. I’ve tried to get help via chat twice and have been told that they can’t do anything as the points have to be added by member administration. I will call eventually, but I really could do without an hour waiting on the phone from the UK.

I’m now on day 21 of waiting for the points to load. I’ve been told that if they are not loaded in time for me to bank at the end of the month member services will do this for me after the banking deadline.

How long did it take to receive your member number from Disney after closing?

How long did it take to receive your member number from Disney after closing?

I was an existing member. However, it took 35 days for the new contract to show on my account.

Recently took 40 days to receive member number emails.

So about 5-6 weeks. Then another 2-3 weeks for points to be added. My contract is closing in the next day or two so I’m still looking at about 2 months or more before I see points.

Tomorrow will day #40 since our deed recorded so hopefully we will know something tomorrow or early this week.

Also took me exactly 40 days from date of recording to receive my emails with my member info. That was 9 days ago and I'm still waiting on points to load. I was hoping it would be within the 7-10 business days but looks like that was wishful thinking, ha.

Oh wow! Then I can look forward to more waiting. Ugh!

Is this even legal?

I was reading the literature on the DVC website and it says that the consumer has the right to book stays from the date of the closing of the ownership interest.

 

[meanwoodwhite]

I wonder if they would like to credit 2 months worth of dues if they are denying usage for so long.

Thats a good point.

Due to all of these delays I wont be able to use the 2019 points that I technically will lose due to it looking like it'll close after my use year. (Not that I can travel from the UK to use them, but it would have been nice to try and rent the points!)

I’m in the same situation. I have 100 pts CCV that expire 8/31 and at this rate they won’t load before they expire, despite having passed ROFR on 7/17.

Same date mine expire. I guess its worth asking, they can only say no!

I found this:

Once you have your membership number, you can contact DVC Member Services to make reservations or make reservations online through the Disney Vacation Club member website.

UPDATED: Maybe I'm more impatient because of just how long every step in the process is taking on Disney's side, but uuuugh, is it frustrating when sellers take forever to return documents. (I get that getting things notarized these days is probably not easy to do). Anyway, 8 days after receiving closing docs and 11 days after passing ROFR, I'm finally closed! Now just the long, long wait for the contract to show and my points to appear.

Albeit slow we are making progress.

Congrats! We hit that milestone today as well. Hoping we can bank our points in time (9/30).
