finally got the 40% code!

[scanmom]

well, I don't know how it happened, but I have called 3 times in the last few weeks and asked if there is a code by my name and been told... NO! So, we planned on going at the end of March anyway. I call today to price the ASM suites, and she tells me I have a 40% off code!!!!!! It's not for my dates though, but we could change dates if needed.... so instead of booking, I told her I would call back after I look at the calendar.... so now it's back to square 1!! Not that I mind, I love to plan, and am super thrilled to get the code, but I don't know why the other CM's told me no code!!! Oh well.....I am off to look at some other dates!!!!

Disney would tend to follow the lead of most direct marketers and stagger the release of discount offers .. sending them out to more people if the initial response doesn't meet the company's target for the promotion.

So more than likely.. you did receive the code.. only recently. The CM should be able to tell you if it was a mailed postcard or an email... and to which address it was sent regardless.

Check when you call back -- but it's been posted on these boards that the ASMu suites are not available under the 40% off code. This would be a great time to double-check that rumor.

cool!!!!

I didn't know you could call and ask if you've been tagged for any codes. I thought I had to have a copy of the email or postcard. Thanks for the tip.

Congratulations-that is great.

Is this a random thing or are only certain people able to get the code? I want a 40% code too!!!

So what was the per night cost at 40% off?? Thanks!

 

[scanmom]

If we change our dates to June 3rd, I can get the AS resorts for $111.00/ nite. We would need 2 rooms because the suites are not valid in the 40% off. If we go in Dec, (16th) I could get Pop for $65.00/ nite...still getting 2 rooms.The mods were $105/nite in June, $95.00/nite in Dec. These are not the only dates that the code is available, just the dates that work for our work/school schedules. I am still thinking of going on my original dates in March, because we went in early June last year, and we were so hot that we were miserable and really did not have a very good time,and the Dec. dates are so close to x-mas that it would probably strain us financially and stress me out with all the x-mas activities that will be going on. Plus 1 in our group (future son-in-law) is planning on joining the air force in May, so that would leave him out,and we really want to take him... he has never been! So, now I am really torn,and have to make up my mind!!!! Thanks!!!!

 

[CanadianGuy]

So if I understand right 111$ a night is for 2 rooms?

When I asked about the Airline Discount the Cast Member told me I couldn't get the DDP added on? Is this the same for others? Shouldn't you be able to get the room discount taken off and still be able to get the DDP plan?

 

[Charleyann]

Just curious, did you get a code? I see you are from Fredericton. I received one but another friend from Fredericton did not. We too are now guessing this whole thing is random. Look how small a region Fredericton is!

No, you can not stack discounts. I'm an AP holder, but every time we've gotten the dining plan I've had to give up my AP room discount and pay rack rates in order to get the dining plan. This is both when we've gotten the DDP free (Sept '05 and Sept '06) and when we've purchased it.

Well, getting the DDP and a discounted room really isn't stacking discounts. There are certain discounts that you can get such as the 40% off and AAA that have the ability to be turned into a package with the DDP. It all depends on the restrictions placed on the particular discount.

I have the discount code on three different rooms at two different times of the year and all have the DDP. We are paying full price for the tickets and DDP and getting the 40% off of the rooms. Im not sure what the problem is but I would speak to someone else. There isn't any reason why you can't get the Dining Plan and the discount.

Yes, we got the 40 % off and the dining plan too (paying for the dining plan - well worth it!!.)
I have read that some codes will let you and others wont..so that may be the problem.
Goodluck!

I am so happy for all of you getting a code. I wish I would finally get one though. I want one for our december trip (dec 9-15) but I am afraid to call CRO more than once asking if I have a code.....

 

[scanmom]

don't be afraid to call themmany times to check on a code! It may pay off big-time! And they don't mind,that is their job!! Most CM's are more than happy to check for you! in fact, one I talked to the other day was more excited than I was!! And that is hard to do!!!
