Wondering if anyone has encountered this problem.
I have Platinum pass but my 3 children have Gold(ie blackout times). We will be traveling to WDW during a blackout time (Easter 2018). In order for my children to use their passes they would have to upgrade in person. They are all 18 or over, live in my household. They will not be in WDW until that time so they cannot upgrade prior to our visit end of March. I will be in WDW in February, but I cannot upgrade for them. It must be in person with ID.
I cannot get the free DVC upgrade to platinum as the passes have been used and it must be done in person. When that is done we will have to pay the difference at that time. In addition when the fastpass booking opens up because their passes are technically not valid during our visit I cannot book their fastpasses. I was told by DVC memeber services that passholder services or guest services should be able to upgrade my passes over the phone. But that was not what the ap guest services told me. The only thing they suggested that I do was to book my fastpasses,pay to upgrade my children's passes, and they would try to help me out with adjusting any fastpasses for my children to match mine.
This is so frustrating...has anyone else had this upgrade issue?
Any suggestions?
