UPDATE: Sorry was bit anxioud before bed last night. All is now well. Just called MS, and found that yes my orignal ressie was cancelled and that's what shows, but my stay is confirmed with using my last 4 DPs. Since it was booked with DPs, that's why it didn't show. I got the confirmation number once again, and wrote it down in a safe place.

Also last night I played around with the "book dining online" link that someone posted on the "Planning" board and got a ressie booked for O'hana for our first night. Awesome.

WOOT! Getting excited once again.

Before I totally freak out, I need to ask.

If points get moved to your holding account, and then you book a ressie using holding points, will your ressie show on the member site. Please assure me that this is why I no longer see my vacation on the member site.

Backstory:
Booked a spur of the moment trip to WDW for July 14-17 last Thursday. Called MS yesterday, as I realized we still had 4 developer points that I could apply to the vacation, and we would need to use those "blessed" 4 points, as we plan to book two stuidos possibly for our trip next April, and the last minute trip made me realize we fell 3 points short (want to avoid borrowing). Anyway, called yesterday to have point allocation changed around -- to use those last 4 DPs, and I realize that yesterday is exactly 30 days out (I believe). I got a confirmation number, and believe that in a fit of cleaning yesterday, threw away the paper. I go to the Member site to look at my info and get the confirmation number, and see NOTHING. I look at my activity and see the points transferred into holding, but do not see a reservation even though the operator gave me one........

Here's hoping I DID NOT throw away the paper.
 
I'd forget about the paper and call MS. The paper means nothing if they accidentally cancelled the reservation on you.
 
Any reservation with developers points must be handbooked. They hold the room for you and then someone does the switching and booking later. The reservation doesn't show on dvcmember.com. Just call MS today and ask nicely what is going on. It doesn't sound like it is a problem. Good luck!
