FREE DINING for DISNEY VISA CARD HOLDERS!!

[smitch425]

Thanks! But I am so confused-- just read on a code watch thread that it's a 6 night/7 day requirement. Can anyone confirm this? I hope it isn't-- we can only go for 4 days in December.

Like I said, 3 night minimum. The advertisement on the Disney Visa website gave a SAMPLE of a stay. It even said the word "sample" right there in the box of the ad. Also, the bottom of the page states to inquire about other lengths of stay.

FD requires a room at rack rate for a 3 night minimum, 14 day maximum stay and a minimum 2 day base ticket for everyone on the resevation ages 3 and up.

Got my free dining booked for our party of 13 for Nov 15-21 at POR. So excited and thankful for the information I got here first!

Thanks everyone!!

FYI - my Disney Visa debit card did qualify me for the discount!

We will be there Nov 12-16th at PORFQ.

I hope I don't burst. haha. I am worse than a little kid. I am way too excited. Worst part is that this trip is for my son and he won't know about it for 2 more months.

Anyone receive an updated reservation confirmation or invoice yet?

 

[anhower]

I can't believe this. I just called to switch to FD and the CM, who was extremely polite and helpful btw, told me that there was no availability at POFQ... WHAT?!?! He said maybe not all of the rooms have been released yet, which I'm hoping is true. He checked POR and all they have there are royal rooms, which my DH and I don't really need... Caribbean and Coronado have limited availability as well. I'm not sure if I should try calling back again to see if I can talk to someone else in case he wasn't checking the right thing, or just wait till tomorrow morning to see if more rooms are released...

Thoughts??

Definitely call back - several times if needed.

Not yet and I booked 8 hours ago. Just called and my email address which was on the original reservation seems to have gotten lost. He re-entered it and said a confirmation would be coming. It could take anywhere from 2 t0 24 hours

They might have only alloted so many rooms for the disney visa holders. I am sure that by Thursday there will be more rooms. Good luck.

That's my personal theory as well. Plus there are a lot of people moving around right now, so inventory is always changing

Awesome! Congrats!! Wonder what other discounts they are holding out on us debit card holders!!

 

[anhower]

Wow... I see myself calling back after this phone call as well. The lady first told me it wasn't available until Thursday, so I politely told her that it's available to the Disney Visa cardholders today. So she checked and sure enough it is (duh). Anyways, she then asked if I wanted to make a payment today... huh? Um, I'm trying to switch to free dining, and if I need to put down $200 I will, IF there's a room available. Well, she just tried doing it and she told me I have to put the $200 down for it to be switched. Fine, I figured that. Now she just said, ok let's see if it works now... WHAT?!?! I thought she just did it!! Now she said, you want the POR, right? Um... I'm booked at the POFQ... Wow, I'm ready to hang up and call back and talk to someone who knows what they're doing... I'm afraid of how screwed up this is...

Just booked POR Garden room only on Nov. 8th and then free dining the 9th-12th!!!

 

[anhower]

OMG.... I'm about ready to fall over. The CM is still looking into it and is chatting with me. She asked if I'd been to WDW before and I said yes, but this will be our first time for food and wine festival. Her response:

"That's the Halloween thing, right?"

I've got mine. I booked around 12:30p CDT and I had it about an hour or so later.
I just called back to check on rooms... the ONLY thing left right now at POR for my check in date is a RGR with a waterview.

 

[katiebear]

Is it just me or does it seem they are trying to move their "view" rooms. When I went to change to FD today at POR, the only way I could get it was to change to a Garden View. OP mentioned they had to change from a standard room at WL to a Woods view. Those of you who couldn't get the resort you want should ask CMs to play around with the different views. Garden view is costing me around $65 more, but I am still saving a substantial amount with FD.

I believe the poster who got the FD LM rooms because when I called at 8:30 this morning the cast member I talked to said she added FD onto my current reservation no problem and then asked if there was anything else I needed. My reservations were for LM rooms. Dumb me should have kept my mouth shut and I would have had FD for LM, too!!!!! But in my head I thought if she did that then they would realize the error, I would lose the FD AND I would lose getting the room I really wanted with FD because they would all be full so I said "Oh. I didn't think LM rooms were eligible." To which she replied. Hmmm.....(pause)......you're right! Dumb Dumb Dumb me!!!!!!!!

Hello!

Does anyone know if you have to use your Disney Visa to pay anything other than the $200 deposit? I have been buying gift cards to apply to my trip (and now I am ready to, lol!) and on the website it will not give me an option of either credit card or gift card. Almost like the website is frozen up?

Any ideas? I plan to call here in just a bit to see if I can apply them by phone.

Thanks!!

Just your deposit has to be paid with DV.

Thanks! Do I need to call to apply the gift cards or should I be able to do it online?

I was kind of stressing sitting on these gift cards, lol.....!!
