Disney Visa Happy Dance!!!

[nowellsl]

I've never booked a package, but I have used my rewards card towards my room charge when I was checking in.

Does anyone know if the change in design of the card will change the credit card number? I loved the new designs, but was worried to sign up for a new one since we have so many things signed up to automatically draw on the existing credit card number.

Wow, I hadn't thought about that. I have a lot of my monthly bills charged automatically on my DV. I hope it doesn't. I just had to go through and change the expiration date on all my auto paid bills. The thing is you're going to get a new card anyway even if you don't call and specify a picture - all the bank one cards are being replaced with chase.

I just got my new card with the castle on it. It's really cute! The number stayed the same.

We also received our two cards two days ago (one for me and one for DH). Everything stayed exactly the same.

I don't have a disney visa, but I am planning on getting one. But right now, to save money, I just add $5 to each of my purchases on my check card when I balance my checkbook, and subtract $5 from each deposit. I have been doing this since late march, and I have saved over $400 already. And I normally use my check card for most of my purchases since I don't normally carry alot of cash with me.

I'm just as Disney crazed as all of you .....but.....

Well...I just got my 1st Disney Chase Card today! I never elected to be a "charter member" when it came out....now.....

Hummmmmm
Did I do the right thing???


Disney 1:100 ratio...lets see:

Continental Airlines Chase card gets me ff miles 1:1
Marriott Reward Card, non M purchase gets me 1:1
Marriott Rewards Card, M purchase gets me 3:1

So....Im asking myself.....why do I really need this card?? Hummmmm

That is how I feel. I wish the ratio was better, because if so, I would use it all the time. But with the system I use to save money, I believe that I am saving more money my way that I can use for disney. I basically just plan on buying a visa "gift" card with my saved up money, and use it instead of my regular check card.

So, is this reward card basically like a gift card or shopping card that your certain amount of rewards gets added on to?

Is there anybody that got the new Visa Card that had a "Day 1" Card? If so, does your new card still say Day 1 on it.

I just ordered our new cards and chose the limited edition Castle Card for the 50th Celebration. Thought it would be a nice collectors item.

We had $200 when we went on our last Disney trip in November and we already have another $210 in reward dollars. Even though we are taking a trip over the 4th of July, I am holding onto my dollars until we take our granddaughters over Thanksgiving -- probably will really need the extra money that week.

We use our Visa cards just like a debt card. Everytime I charge something, I immediately deduct it out of my checkbook. When the bill comes, I just add all the charges up in the checkbook and compare them with the statement -- then I can just pay the bill -- no interest charges here.

The new card does say Day 1 and Charter Cardmember.
