February 2016 Discount Code Watch

[tulabelle]

So if you don't have a Visa card, are you able to apply and use it right away to book a trip?

Just an Update on this...Last year I started a thread where we determined how the discount worked http://www.disboards.com/threads/stay-play-dine-calculation.3339097/

Until this goes live on the website I can't dissect it BUT I can tell you it definitely isnt' as good as the SPD last year. At a VERY ROUGH Glance It looks like maybe 50% off on dining with no other discount OR 5% off Room and 40% off dining.

Regardless...The discount from what I can see is definitely worse than last year and for those on the fence of a room only OR SPD discount in past years the better deal this year may be room only however YMMV depending on how you choose to dine.

I'm planning on room only at POR. I want to know now, but I can't call until later!

I'm on the phone getting a quote and she definitely asked me for my card number right away. I had to scramble and say I just wanted a quote adn wasn't ready to book. Discount seems...like not much of a discount.

I found out because someone's travel agent notified them. I've never been notified by Chase/Visa of the discounts. That's why I keep an eye on these boards

I had Pop booked, last week of February, 4 day base, no dining - room discount would have saved me $103.xx ... I upped to the SP&D package and ended up with the same amount of savings, about $100 off the regular package price - aka, not much. It's better than nothing though.

Do you have to make a payment with that card or just give the number?

They usually want you to make a payment with the card if you are booking a new reservation. If you are just applying the discount to an existing reservation they might not ask for additional payment. It seems to depend on the CM that is handling your call.

What time do the phone lines open?

I made the 200 dollar deposit with my Disney visa because it was a new booking

What time do the phone lines open?

I believe at 7 am Eastern time but I might be wrong. I know that's the time they open for dining reservations

I have already made the $200 deposit

Just got off the phone, they applied the SP&D to my original MYW package at Pop (preferred) with 5 day tickets & the regular dining plan and we saved $302.

Just got an e-mail from my TA...looks like we are upgrading from Poly Standard to Poly Club Level Garden View for $20/night.

That's about what I saved too - $109.88. We're staying 1st week of Feb at Pop. I'm very disappointed. I'm working with my agent now to see what the moderate discounts look like. I'll upgrade if I can save more!
