Dde ?

[bcsmom]

I was wondering if I have an AP right now, but it is going to expire before my trip can I buy one or do they ask for your AP to pick it up at guest relations?
Another question is my dad is coming on this trip, & he has an AP. So if I called to buy it under his number can I still put my name on it since I will be using it more often?

i bought my dde about 2 months before my ap expired - my ap expired before we went in november but the dde will be good for one year - you just have to purchase the dde while your ap is current (if you wait until after the 5th or 6th of the month then the dde card is good until the end of the following month - ex. i bought my card on oct 6 2005 and it is good until nov 30 2006 so i will get two thanksgiving trips out of one card - my ap card expired nov. 17th 2005 and i am not renewing the ap because the cost of room benefits are no longer giving me the discounts i used to receive but the dde card is still good (did i explain that alright????!!!)

the card has my name on it because the ap card was in my name - they offered another card for my husband but it also has my name on it - not his
we were never asked for an id or ap card when we presented the dde card

we saved over 60 dollars (after subtracting the 50 charge) this trip ---several places we ate did not accept the card and it is not valid on holidays (ex. thanksgiving day)

i understand raglan road will soon be accepting dde cards

have a great trip!

The DDE card will have the name of the AP holder who bought it....you won't be able to buy one using your dad's AP. And it will cost $25 for him to get a second card for you. I would just get one using your current AP. It is still good when you AP expires.
