Also had a booking code to provide when calling to book reservations...however looking at disney.com this is the exact same rack rate for those dates that they are offering on their website...are the expecting people to think it's a pin and go ahead and book?? I got all excited for nothing...

We just got a non-pin today too. The subject line said "Explore your Disney resort picks, ______ family". I got so excited because that was the subject line when we received our pin via email last year. But, when I opened the email it was just a big ad for one of the resorts we had saved a quote for. There was a hot button to go ahead and book (they very conveniently had all of our info listed - dates we'd looked at, number in our party etc), but there are no discounts. When I clicked on the link to "view other dates and accommodations" just the regular Disney World booking website opened. Well, thanks Disney Destinations for the advertising, but I'm familiar with your resorts. If you really want to entice me into booking maybe a discount would do the trick. They have discontinued BB's (we just returned from WDW a week ago and would have definitely booked a BB) and we're looking at October so we can't even get FD right now. I just don't understand why they mail out pins to some people, but then send out these blatant non-pins to others. Seems kind of mean.

Got a "Game On" PIN a couple of weeks ago and was very disappointed. It was only for the first two weeks of February and we'd have to book by 12/29 (below). I don't know why they would send a PIN for such a short window like that.
