Digital Membership Cards?

[Jennasis]

Does your DH have his own MDE account? If so, does his DVC club ID show there? Or, is it just that its showing no affiliation in the Magic Mobile app on the phone?

He does not have his own MDE account. When I pull up our cards on Magic Mobile (through the Google Pay which I detest having to use), it shows his affiliation as just Annual Pass.

I think he needs an MDE account then so it will pull him as a DVC owner. Again, he doesn't have to use it, but that is what my adult son had to do when he became an owner on our contract. Once he did that, it showed his new affiliation on the website as a DVC owner.

My DD's already had MDE accounts, so it automated for them as soon as they had their club IDs.

Yes...as in eligible for discounts. I was told by CM today that ND means No Discount.

Mine has neither "Y" or "ND".

Have him set up his own MDE account...it should then populate him as a DVC owner...if not, get his club ID and add it. He can then set up Magic Mobile on it and hopefully, it will give him the correct affiliations. I am going to have to do this for my DH as he doesn't have one either. But, he won't be going with me for quite a while so in no rush.

Thanks…I will give it a try…I was able to download a card that says DVC for me but it seems like it is just an old ticket of mine since when you click on it there is just my name with an ID number under it…it does not say DVC by the QR code.

Then you may be one of the owners who has not yet finished, or it has an error. Unfortunately, there are reports of lots of them so far...not a big surprise when it comes to Disney and IT.

The temporary card on the website that expires in one month will look just like your blue card that expired last week. But, those do not include the QR code. I have read reports though that while they work all the glitches out, that blue cards will be accepted during the month of January.

I go down next week and will hopefully be able to report back more specific information on how it works, what CMs tell me, etc. and get more info for using the temporary card.

I finally found the "Y" when I clicked on "Details".

Insanity. There is literally no reason for him to have an account. (totally not directed at you!)

Man, Disney makes my butt want to chew barbed wire sometimes.

I know. Sometimes gains with technology don't work for everyone.

Or at all.

So nobody else had the issue of someone who is a member NOT having their membership recognized at all on the affiliations page? Just my DH?

My husband does not have his own DVC account or MDE account.
He did get the blue cards.....4 of them

My DH has a blue card and has had it since we bought in 2014. He does not have his own MDE account or DVC account ( I manage our trips). His digital card does not have him listed as a DVC member.

So did my DH who has neither. However, these new cards...it appears...require each owner to have Magic Mobile. I am trying to get the FAQs that were posted when it was announced to load but I can't.

Honestly, it is beyond disappointing that they don't have the new info up on the website...then again, maybe it is there but most of us can't see it because the darn thing is not loading today!!!!!!

 

[Meriweather]

I still can not find a digital card to look at.
Profile on The app does have both of our APs.....for me one DVC number, Castaway number and 2 listings for Disney Visa holder.

That's too bad. I will not be using Magic Mobile. No desire to

Also, Magic Mobile would not work on DH's ipad. He got an error msg saying he wasn't on a MOBILE DEVICE!!

Were you resale only when you added DVC to your MDE? I wouldn’t if that’s what MDE sees.

No, my direct purchases came first. Maybe MDE is only seeing the most recent purchase?

 

[Jennasis]

Also, If I have DH go now and make his OWN DVC account and his OWN MDE account, is it going to mess up things in my account? our current resort reservations? His AP that I have for him in my account?? How is it going to know that the John Doe he creates is the John Doe in my account???

Ay yi yi...short answer is I have to call to have his AP ported over from my account to his.

You know what? I'm not doing it. DH won't ever EVER need his member card. He is always with me, and his AP offers pretty much identical discounts. We can use my member card. Boom. done.

There is no special DVC card anymore. It is all tied into Magic Mobile on the app. So, when you open the app, you have to go to that and set it up. If you don't set that up, then there will be no way to access it.

Other than what they shared previously...trying to get that language posted...we don't know if they have other ways for owners who don't want to use MagicMobile.

The Ipad doesn't support this feature. It has to be a cell phone or an Apple Watch.
