Closing Time!!

[Jnivek]

MY contract loaded on 8/14 and points loaded 8/16

I don’t understand how it is possible for an existing member to get resale points loaded faster than a new member. How is the process different once it gets through Member Administration?

An existing member already has an account and membership number and use of the online MS. so they can just throw the new contract and points in the existing account and then they don't have to mail a letter with new member info.

My account is set up. I stare at zero points everyday. I have my fancy magnet. All they have to do is transfer the points from the previous owner like they do for existing members. Why can they do that faster for existing members?

I agree. My deed recorded June 11 and it took two months, as a current member, to get it added to my account. Still waiting on points yet I read on here about other who have received their points within a few days. It is very frustrating and it almost seems like DVC isn’t going in order when transferring the points.

Also agree with this! We recorded June 24, contract finally showed on Aug 7. Still no points.

July 2nd Deed Recording (had a little blip after recording so it may have not been submitted to disney that exact day but a few days later.)
August 14 Contract Loaded
August 16 Points Loaded (could be the 15th as I did not login to check)

Existing member. I checked when hopfather posted and to my surprise already done.

I'm an existing member and points have not loaded from contract showing up 8/10. did you call or email/

 

[Sandisw]

Existing member and still no points after contract showed up Thursday night.

So, not sure it is an existing vs. new member for point loading.

When I emailed Disney said:

Please note that once we have completed the transfer in our system, there is a different department that physically moves the points between the accounts. This part of the process typically takes an additional 7-10 business days.

So someone PHYSICALLY moves them, its not electronic.

Nope. Just showed up. Did not bother to call or email as I figured it would be a few more weeks anyway.

I think you mean, it's not automatic. Pretty sure it's still electronic Although, in my head I'm picturing cast members physically picking up points and moving them around little rooms, like the 7 dwarfs.

My direct contract has closed and the deed is showing up. I just need my resale sellers to return their docs.

LOL...yes, it’s MS and the back office that takes care of it. I was going to call today but hold times were so long that I hung up. I want to get my October nights swapped so by end of week I am really hoping.

Well, they said they physically move them, so it cant be electronic.

Someone has to has to go into the DVC offices, box up the points, load them onto a truck, drive them to the points office, sign the delivery, open the box, check the points for damage and allocate them

Ah, I see. I am really glad they are being so careful, especially that they check the points for damage before transferring them to me. Makes me feel much better about the process taking so long

Well imagine if they do 10 contracts a day and each one is average 100 points.

Thats 1000 points they need to unwrap and check. So yes, that why it takes so long

They get through a lot of bubble wrap I am told

 

[Jnivek]

They should call Amazon who could probably deliver those points in 2 days.

I know this thread moves quickly. I had to delete a few posts because there was not a link posted to the broker.l

We are now asking that you include that, not just the name. It would be too difficult for mods to edit...thanks all.

60 days total so far!

Closed today - WOOHOO!! A bit of a downer knowing it is going to take a while longer to get my new membership account and points. UGH! Email from title agent:

“Please allow Disney 3-4 weeks to complete the transfer once notified. Disney will notify you by email when the transfer is completed. The points can take up to an additional 14 days to show in your account upon completion of the transfer.

The recorded deed will go out by regular mail within 2-3 business days.

I’ve given into the waiting at this point, but definitely feel for everyone trying to make a banking or reservation deadline!
