I think it's just the website being wonky.

It's less than a week away from the new year... definitely think we would have heard of a change like that by now.
 
I agree - it is probably the website having issues. Since they have been testing or introducing the new site, I have seen all kinds of weird things and run into all kinds of inconsistencies. I just checked the 2013 dining plan documentation which has been update recently to include restaurants that hadn't signed previously, and it still states 1 TS, 1 QS and 1 snack.
 


Post back with what they say when you call. Curious to know now!
 
You got my curiosity up, so I went to mine to look and see...where do you see that on your confirmation?
 


How where you able to get free dining already? Did you have a pin or was it a bounceback?
 
I haven't heard of PINs including September yet so it looks like a bounceback reservation.
 
OP, I got free dining around your dates maybe they will offer it. Here is to hoping for you and everyone else wanting it.

I emailed em.. got this:

Please be advised that this is just a display issue with the new website.

Each person on the reservation, age 3 and up, will also enjoy a resort refillable drink mug, which can be used at your resort throughout your stay.
 
Interesting my reservations are listing the same thing about the table service and 2 quick service. I figured it was an error, but wonder if we can hold them to it? I printed out the page just in case.

Everything else still states the correct amount of entitlements - including the brochure. It's just a website glitch - they won't honor it. If they honored everything that website has been saying with the updates people would be dining at Akershus 7 days in a row or people that are missing on the reservation wouldn't get credits at all.
 
whoever has the disney website contract must be sweating bullets

terrible website... you would think a company like disney with the powers of a movie studio and everything else could do a better job
