Pixie dust has just landed on my head.
I decided I wasn't going to hold my breath for a code and to just hope I could afford to upgrade us from a mod to a deluxe for 3 nights on a
AAA rate. Started out with humor when who picks up the phone but the CM that checked my account yesterday for any codes and told me 'you'll get one before december'. He gave me a nice quote, but still too much for me. Ok, happens, bummed out me but it's not the CM's fault.
Then he tells me to hold on, does a lot of fiddling and asks me how does this sound per night? Long story short, he helped me getting those 3 nights/4 days (our plane doesn't leave untill 8.30 pm, yes!) at AKL for a dream rate, which comes down to allmost 40% off.

We added tickets and dining while we were at it. We've been on the phone well over an hour to get evertyhing in perfect order. Talk about endurance!
That CM made my day, I can tell you! Today and tomorrow, really (it's after midnight by now).
So yeah, I'll be checking my mail. Not for the code, but for the confirmation of those 3 days a special CM made possible.
Oh boy, I'm way too exited to go to sleep now!
