For those who found the code by calling...

[Cinderumbrella]

Has a postacrd or email ever shown up with the info after the fact? I have not been calling daily (called once when I was making a modification to my ressie and had them check then) but have been checking my email and mailbox and have yet to find anything. (And I will fess up to ordering a new planning video, signing DH up for his own account and saving some quotes in both profiles )

I'm just not sure I want to call EVERY day and deal with the wrath of angry CM's trying to meet a quota...

I had received nothing as of last night when a wonderful cm "found" me a code. I really think it all has to do with what cm you get. I had just called 10 minutes earlier and got one that seemed to not want to deal with me because I started off asking here to check for a code, she found nothing, same with the cm earlier and the 3 last week, but all were finding me on the don't mail/email list and my frequency of call was to see if I was off that list since each of them tried to take it off with no luck. The cm last night also indicated I was on the don't list and had no codes with any of us on any phone number we have had or address. We I took a shot and told here why I was wanting to come, anniversary and son't b-day, and that it really hinged on getting a code and that I new people from this board were getting 40% off codes, we talked a little and she said she'd try to look again, started with our zip don't know if this has anything to do with it or not. Said she found a code and we could use it, saved us over $600. Told her how much I appreciated her taking the time and effort mutiple times. She said she just wanted us to have a great vacation and that since I knew of the code being sent out she found one and got it for us.

Keep calling and maybe you'll get a great cm, like I did. Good luck.

I just got a very nice cm...he mentioned that the marketing department sends out discounts to who they feel like sending them to at that time..sometimes by zip code,sometimes by number in family..he said I show none and apologized up and down and crossed his fingers for next time...maybe setting up new emails will help???

I called on Sunday for the heck of it and learned that I had a code. I have received 2 emails from Disney Destinations in the past 4 years and no snail mail; neither have been pin codes. I have stayed on property the past several times, once a year, so maybe that has something to do with them giving us a pin?

Thats a great rate! I think its a shame though that you have to jump through hoops in order to find a code. Your post makes me wonder if the CMs have access to codes to use at their discretion.

I just called for the third time - still no discount The CM was very friendly until she knew that I already had a reservation and she told me if I were to get a code with my name, I would be notified by mail or e-mail. I asked if I was on a do not mail list because I heard there were some that had that marked in their database and she said she didn't see anything like that for us. I am happy for everyone who is getting their discounts, but I am getting very frustrated. I'm just not very patient at these things.

Okay, in my last message, I was so frustrated that I didn't make any sense. Sorry about that. Hopefully you all can understand what I meant. If not just skip it.

I bet if you have nothing booked you will get a code faster than if you do habve a trip booked....hhmm

I have not received any email or postcard & I did get the code by calling. I called twice. The 1st time the CM said I did not have a code. A week later I called & did have the code.

Oh, and I did already have a room reservation booked so I don't think that matters.

I had my ressie already. Called Sunday to change from PC to CBR and asked about a code attached and was politely told "no". The next day the 40% off postcard was in my mail.

So obviously, the postcard had already been mailed when I spoke to CM on Sunday, yet she saw no code attached to my name. (and the postcard was in my name)

 

[iloveeeyore]

I called in the summer looking for something in the late summer, early fall, and there WAS a code attached to my name in the system. The CM asked hadn't I received a postcard or e-mail yet? I hadn't, nor did I ever. Couldn't use the code anyway .

ok I am lost what are code and how do you get them. I signed up for the maps and video on disney site is that how you get them or some place else. I have my ressies made already and this is our first trip so i dont understand all the lingo yet
