Dashboard

[jsrowdon]

Maybe I am going crazy but I could have sworn that previously on my dashboard under the My Vacation Plans section that in addition to my upcoming reservations that are booked it also showed my waitlist. Now that waitlist is gone from the daskboard but still shows in my waitlist manager.

Did this just change? Am I crazy and it never really listed waitlists in that spot?

Thanks

No you are not seeing things, it used to be on the dashboard.

HaHa, Thanks. Wonder why it was moved, doesn't seem worth the effort of messing with it.

Means your waitlist has matched and they are waiting to fill it - which can take several days. Call MS and have them go ahead and get it completed. And congratulations.

That is awesome! Had no idea, never had a waitlist match before.

Yes, it means the waitlist has matched. You will still see it showing if you go under the waitlists until the CM completes the match and then it will show under your Upcoming Vacations.

Have you phoned in to verify this? While I previously agreed 100% with rlduvall, above, it was reported today on a different board that someone else lost their WL entirely. It wasn't 'matched' but 'dropped' as confirmed by phoning into Member Services. I hope dropping WL requests isn't a 'new behavior' of the DVC website?

I phoned in last Friday and they confirmed my waitlist had matched and went ahead and completed the booking for me.

I also had a waitlist match last Thursday. It disappeared from the dashboard but was still on my page of waitlists. I called MS about something else a day or two later and the CM confirmed it just needed to be finalized which it was just after the phone call.

Thanks for originally agreeing with me 100%. I actually did have what you mentioned above happen to me once. In that instance, they were supposed to use points I had transferred in from other member. When I called them after it didn't match and dropped, they said I had to tell them that's what I wanted done. Okay - so fast forward - same situation, but absolutely no problem this time - it matched. When I mentioned what happened previously, they said that was incorrect and that it should have automatically matched to the transferred points.

Because of the first scenario, the minute I see my WL match I go ahead and call to get it filled.
