DVC Point Transfer Rules

[eticketplease]

Mystery solved. I was at Boulder Ridge in June when a big portion of the resort flooded due to sprinklers. It didn’t affect my room, but they apparently gave them to me for any inconvenience. Nice gesture, but odd to give points expiring in 2 months, even odder not to tell me so I could use them sooner!

It's amazing you were able to get 2 values that last minute!!

Starting to think about a trip in 2026 where I will have to use two contracts (same resort) with a different UY. This will involve 2026 points and borrowing 2027 points.

I'm less concerned about the 2026 points, but is there a restriction on when I can transfer my 2027 points between contracts? For example can I transfer the 2027 points in say December of this year?

You can transfer out 2027 points once you get to your 2026 UY...however, because transferred points can be borrowed now, its possible they have updated when you can do it.

What are your specific UY's and when is the trip?

Feb & Oct with the trip in early Dec.

So, a Dec 2026 trip is in your 2026 UY for both so you’d need the 2027 points in whichever membership you want to put the reservation

Because you will be booking in January 2026, id definitely contact MS to see if they have updated the rules that you can move the 2027 points before you officially enter either 2026 UY.

All though the ideal would be to have all the points in one contract and thus all the nights on one reservation, I'm also going to look at if I can make it the points work to booking individual reservations on each contract.

That's how we did it before I knew about being able to transfer points

Honestly we do that and simply ask MS to link them. We have never had to change rooms.

I just don’t like to deal with transfers myself.

Yeah, the main benefit to doing the transfer is being able to book the whole stay at that particular resort all at once
