You might want to enable "Private Messenging". I would have sent this to you in a PM...

This is TGM's response to several posts on this topic including mine.

Online briefly ...

No, I understand her problem. Our purchase page has been offline since last week and I was unaware of the problem. You first fill out the registration/purchase page and then click submit. It's after your credit card is approved that you're directed to the Questionnaire. She, and anyone else, has been submitting her credit card info and then told it was denied. Our developers are working on the problem as of Monday morning.

Again, this has just been a very touch timing thing with my family vs. business. Those who already have an AVP are understanding, but to anyone else I'm just this site that's not 'working.' We should be back up soon!

He just rolled out TGM 2.0 and they found a bug. His developers are working on it. The personal reference is to him being out of town due to a family medical issue that is essentially resolved at this point.

Thanks and I will look into how to turn on that private messageing part. With these boards as a reference for him I don't think he will lose too much business. I think it is wonderful how you all support each other !!! I wouldn't have trusted the site at all, however after researching a bit on here I think he must be an honest vendor !! Thanks!!!

The TGM problem is fixed. Mike is offering a special discount because people were having problems...

From the www.tourguidemike.com website:
Special LIMITED Discount Offer! [Pub. Nov 24, 2004] During this past week our credit card processing web site was denying almost everyone attempting to purchase an AVP. The problem has been fixed!

To both celebrate AND apologize for the inconvenience I am offering a spectacular deal on the TGMiKE AVP for a very limited time. Use 'Promo Code' HE7LE-8HA on the purchase page and your new AVP is only $12.95!! Spread the word wherever you like; subtly dance at your keyboard, and enjoy!

You are going at one of the busiest times of the year so it's great you want at least a basic plan.

Personally I love WDW transportation and rarely use my car while there. The bus will actually drop you off right at the gate of MK while the parking lot is across the lagoon and you will have to take the ferry or the monorail to the gate.

I'm not sure how EE will work during such a busy time. You might try one and decide for yourself if it is worth getting up that early. Use fast pass wisely by always having one in your possession and getting another as soon as the window opens up for your current FP. This saves a lot of line time.

Take time to visit other resorts to see the Christmas decorations. The Grand Floridian is wonderful. Priority seatings are probably a must during this time of year if you want to eat at any sit down restaurants. You can cancel priority seatings if you need to but I would at least pick one in the park you think you might be in for each day. You can also call while you are in WDW but since it's a busy time your choices might be limited.

Make sure to check out the Osborne lights at MGM.
