I wasn't sure where to post this but here goes...looking at a DVC rental through DiscountedDis. They got back to me really quickly - faster than Dvcrentals and others however I can't find reviews on this company. Also didn't Ask for a deposit. Website looks legit and they have a Facebook page. The information they've given regarding availability is in line with the other companies. I'm struggling a bit because there are no real "users" out there. Anyone heard of this company? Thoughts? TIA!!

If you don't get any replies here, you might want to post over on the DVC Board.

I've never used them, however, I did get a quote from them once.

It was the same rental price point as DVC Rental Store & David's. The cancellation insurance was cheaper than DVC Rental Store. However, they seemed to lack the customer service & detail of DVC Rental Store & Davids.

Also very short answers, never explanation of how things worked and they kept telling me that AKL Villas had no standard rooms left only Savannah but I was able to book a standard view through DVC Rental no problem.
 

I've never seen a review of them before this. Personally, I would be cautious.
 
I would only go with the bigger, well known companies and check to see if they are recognized by the Better Business Bureau. I had a very bad experience with a smaller, lesser known DVC rental company that I wouldn't want anyone else to ever have to go through. I thought I had done my research. Also, stay away from "one man show" companies. Even if you find one or two people who have used them, I'd suggest staying away. I had found a few Disney facebook group members who had used the company I had the bad experience with. Go with the companies that have an excellent reputation and are backed by the BBB
 
Thanks everyone for your knowledge and advice. I'm going to rent through DVC rental store. Used them before, just having trouble getting the dates I want. Didn't seem to have this problem 2 years ago! (same time and resort). Dis is busier than ever!!!
 
Hello All,


I came across this post this morning and I was a little taken back but also a little happy at the same time there is a forum to protect consumers. Let me explain.


I have owned a successful travel agency for years. I am a Disney lover and DVC member as well. I started DiscountedDIS a little bit ago because I was getting so much interest in Disney. Problem was, Disney does not come cheap. I saw a need. My company's main goal is to make every client’s vacation a possibility by any means.


As an agency, we will make a certain amount of money on every reservation we book. This is how agencies work. I will pay part of the client’s trip so they can afford to go and happily take less.


As far as Disney Vacation Club reservations go, it is not my main focus but I am trying to help people out in any way possible. People try to rent DVC points for one reason, to save money. I am not sure if you know this, but David’s and other suppliers have been raising their cost per point, where I charge the guests the lowest.


In owning another agency, we deal with timeshares on a daily basis. I have timeshare inventory and offer it to clients who can’t afford Disney or DVC. We offer them this at cost as well.


For all Disney reservations, we charge the client direct through Disney. For DVC reservations, we work the same as all the other companies. I am not out here trying to scam anybody.


Lporter- Sorry we couldn’t help you with your reservation as the DVC availability just wasn’t there. We sent you dates when everything you requested was open. We don’t control availability but I hope the service and work we did for you was appreciated!



I am a Disney lover just like all of you and all I am trying to do is bring some of the magic to others. I hope I did the best answering your concerns. Please feel free to message me on here or email.
