Fall Fantasy DVC Cruise rate special

[Minnie*Mouse]

When I called MS this morning, he wasn't sure if the points would be put back into the current use year (Oct.2000), or in the borrowed year (Oct.2001). He was going to check w/his manager and call me back, but didn't. I'm expecting to hear from him tomorrow.

For those of you, who have called and received the points back, how did they handle it?

Note: Member services can make mistakes on this program, question everything. I previously posted that I was getting back 120 points due to the fall fantasy program. When I got home from work on Monday, there was a message from member services on my machine that said I was given wrong information and we would only be getting back 42 points. This lowers our per person rate to 145 for cat 7 which corresponds to other information on this board. Needless to say, I was not very happy although we are still getting 42 points back that we were not really expecting, so I really cannot complain too much

I got a message today from MS about the call I made yesterday to change my cruise to Fall Fantasy rates (but keeping the same dates). The message said she forgot to tell me yesterday while we were on the phone, BUT that we were going to get a $150 onboard credit. I'm thrilled!

Ok, do you automatically get this shipboard credit? I was not aware of this and MS told me I could not use my Castaway Club Card for any credits.

Help I need some credit so we can spend more $$$$$.

dan and scott,
I guess you automatically do get the shipboard credit. We have never cruised before. She didn't mention it yesterday, just called today and said she forgot to mention it. Apparently it's part of the Fall Fantasy promotion, in addition to the points being less.

What is a shipboard credit?

 

[ReneeQ]

A shipboard credit is a credit on your room's account. The Disney cruise is cash free, everything is charged to your room and then settled at the end of the cruise (by paying cash or charging to a credit card). So $150 shipboard credit means the first $150 you charge back to your room is free!

Does anyone know what the points are for the 3 or 4 day cruise?

We got a voicemail from DVC on saturday saying the cruise we booked months ago went on sale and we got back 40 some points as well as a $150 ship board credit.
Due to the Fall Fantasy rate we were able to upgrade 2 catagories for no additional points or cash. I think I was actually jumping up and down while my husband was making the changes yesterday.
Yippeee. I am soo excited about our first cruise.
I can't wait until Dec.
