Has any Annual Passholders gotten their magic bands yet?

[johnsgrl]

I got mine yesterday ,the email saying they shipped had come on Wednesday, got the passholder slider and the discount card!

Would someone mind posting a photo of their MB with the slider on it? I've seen the photo of the slider separate from the MB, but I'm having a hard time picturing how it attaches and what it looks like on the band once it is attached. Thanks!

Here's one of my MagicBands with the 2013 slider. Click the thumb nail to view a larger version.

When you renew your AP will they send out the updated slide?

We are annual passholders and received our bands for our November, January and March trips. I did not know there was a problem.

Thanks. In the first pic (with the blue 2014 AP slider), it looks thick on the top side -- is it thick on the back side, too? I'm just thinking about how it would feel against your skin if it's much thicker than the band itself.

I'm getting my AP in May 2014, so I wonder if they send a 2015 slider for next year

I can only speak for the 2013 slider, as our AP 2014 have not yet arrived, and they were very comfortable. They were "rubbery"

Did you purchase this slider, or did they give them out last year as well?

AFAIK you weren't able to but these. We got them at check in and everyone was asking us about them.

I expect as there are pins only AP holders can buy - there will be sliders AP holders only can buy. I also expect in the future those will include the year sliders that say passholder.

I got my blue AP Magic Band on Saturday

They gave them out at the resorts. The sliders glow in the dark. I got mine in October 2013.

My AP band is showing up in my list of magic bands on my MDE acct, but I still haven't received it. Anyone else experience this? Should I call?

That's normal. Once they have actually been customized by the company that handle that process, they will appear on the 'MagicBands and Cards' page. They are most likely in transit and should arrive within a few days.

Thank you for the info!! I hope the mail lady won't think I'm stalking her

Forgive me if this has been discussed already, but its something I'm concerned about. I already have MBs from previous resort stays. With them, you can book FP+ 60 days out. However, APs are told they can only do so 30 days out. Has anyone found that getting the AP MB prevents you from booking 60 days out?

This seems to be the case. Today is 60 days out from our trip in May, but we cannot make any selections, because it says we don't have tickets tied to the reservation. We are AP holders, so we can still make reservations 30 days out. I'm going to give them a call after work to see what can be done.

We have MB's from a previous trip. We are also AP Holders. We haven't ordered our AP MB's yet. We can only make FP+ reservations 30 days in advance.

3/21 was 60 days until check-in for my May stay. On that day, I could make reservations for the dates of my reservation. Prior to 3/21, I could only make them for up to 30 days in advance as an AP holder.

Please excuse me if it has been discussed, but make sure to look under the Magic Bands in the box and you will see an envelope that contains passholder ID cards, for discounts and parking. I almost threw mine away.
