Got my fan club card yesterday

[cbrlmgr]

Your welcome.

I'm getting ready to post another good money saver on tickets. Been looking for two months on the best bargains for tickets and hit the jackpot.

Right now I'm doing research on the company to make sure they are legit. So far they are checking out.

Don't want to post a "rotten egg".

Watch for my post!

Just want to thank you for the info. I got my card 2 days ago I'm so glad we'll get to save some $$$ on eats!

I just read the fan club benefits. I was wondering if, when I check into the HRH I should show both my Loews First Card and my Fan Club Card? Or does that look too tacky? Also, do you think that discounts are given at the hotel restaurants with the Fan Club Card? Thanks again.

I'm going to use my Loews card and any other cards I think they may take. Although the fan club card cannot be combined withany other offer, they may make an exception.

You are only using the fan club card for the discount reservation when you check in so they should honor the Lowes card. You will never know if you don't try!

Good Luck!

Got my Fan Club Card today! Thanks cbrlmgr!

If I'm not mistaken, the Loews card gets you other perks, along with discount rates. There's something about snacks and drinks in your room, and I believe the daily newspaper. I had to pick some of these things when I received my card. So, you can use the FanClub card for the room rate and the Loews card for the extra amenities. They should accept that. Plus, the more you use your Loews card, the faster you get into a new level.

If you are a memeber of AAA, take your card. You will get discounts at most food places--even cart vendors.

 

[ceb29]

Hey, thanks for reminding me about using AAA. I always forget to use it when I go to eat places. (God knows I pay enough a year to have it, I may as well use it!)

I went to the link which took me to a "family" membership page. When I went to the "fan club" link, I read the small print at the bottom. Is the "family" membership the same as the fan club membership? I don't want to sign up for the family membership and then get a $49 bill in the mail a month later.

*FAN CLUB membership is available from your employee services or Human Resources Department. Fan Club cards are issued through your employer and not to individuals. To have your company apply for membership, please email us at fanclub@universalorlando.com. Not available to the general public. All membership benefits are subject to change without notice. Cards have no cash value and cannot be combined with any other offers. Membership cards must be presented at time of transactions in order to be valid.

I keep trying to sign up and skip the credit info, but it won't let me. It keeps saying credit card # is invalid.

What am I doing wrong???? I want to take advantage of all those great deals like you guys, but I can't.

HELP!!

On the second page, when you sign in, there is a link at the top of the page that says I believe "skip this page" It is the page where you enter your personal information. If you skip that page you won't have to enter a credit card number.

If you enter any information on that page it won't work.

I must be a complete idiot On the first page I hit the registration, fill in name, email, password (2X) and submit. The second page comes up with credit card info needed.

I could not find a 'skip this page' anywhere. In big green letters it says - Please provide payment information. You will be notified via email when your registration has been approved. (2-3 business days.)

I must not be destined to get all those great benefits

Any other suggestions??

 

[cbrlmgr]

Just went to the site and they closed the loop-hole of getting past the 49.95 fee.

Sorry you didn't get your fan club card!

Jillybee: Email me with your address and I'll send you my extra card.

Millerglass: The family site and fan club card are two different things. The fan club card is given to employers and organizations as a "perk" for their employees and members.

The family site is an organization that you need to become a member of to get the benefits.

I stumbled on a loop-hole to join the organization for free and shared it here at this board in appreciation for all the help that I receive at this site.

Because of the number of new members they were getting, they were alerted to the programming error and corrected the problem. No more free memberships.

Keep searching and you may get lucky like I did.

That is just luck I guess. I'm glad I got one when the getting was good. Do you think my "membership" will still work?

 

[millerglass]

As usual. A day late and a dollar short.

My membership still works. Just ordered member benefits for bush gardens and seaworld for free.

You can still get an enternainment rate at the HR with an entertainment book coupon. The rate is a little cheaper than the fan club rate (by about $12).

I remember seeing a coupon for $10 off the entertainment book somewhere, can't rember where.
Should have bookmarked the site.

Well I just tried all of the links in each of the posts. I followed all of the directions, but I could not get past the credit card part. Never saw the discount theme parks at the bottom of the page. What am I doing wrong? I want to get the card for free also. Please help!!
BTW, when I left the site & clicked another link, when I typed in my user name etc, it said my membership had expired and that I needed to upgrade. Funny thing is, they didn't offer a link for me to upgrade.

Look at 5th or 6th pevious post above.

Good news: Just checked the family network site again and they have waived the 49.95 membership fee.
