Ordered ours on the eighth and it just today changed from Mid-March to "will ship soon"

We have family that is on our account that is only here until the 31st ~ was hoping their bands would come before they go back to Maine!

Mine just says "Status" today. Yesterday it was saying they would be shipped soon. We leave for WDW Sunday. I sure would like to get them today or tomorrow. We have 2 sets, one from a previous trip, and one for our trip next week. I would just like to have the new AP card & MB box. It just adds a little extra magic to being an AP

They are shipping these out USPS instead of UPS Next Day Air. I have seen any confirmation they are being shipped express or next day via the postal service.

I am having trouble seeing where to even customize or order my AP bands.

I just ordered APs today over the phone on the DVC member phone number.

She gave me my will call order number.

I went on MDE and successfully linked the will call number. It showed that I bought four passes and allowed me to choose who in my friends and family list they belonged to. They are showing up on there as linked.

I tested it out and it will allow me to make fp+ for all of us for dates coming up. I just tried one random date in the next 30 days for the heck of it and then canceled it out.

Our trip isn't until August so I don't plan on picking up our actual passes until then and going through the gate to activate so they will be valid one year from our August trip.

When I go to magicbands and cards section on the site though it only gives me the ability to customize bands for our August resort stay. It is not showing an option to customize for AP bands. How do we get the AP bands?

Lastly although it appears linked and I can make fp+ correctly, when I go to the passholder section of the site such as to check out passholder offers and such it tells me I need to link my AP and the same order number is not working there so I can't enter anything.

It appears I have APs linked to tickets for fp usage but do not have AP affiliated with my account for other purposes. Also, no spot to customize or order AP bands.

Any ideas???

See my post in this thread from earlier today... it seems Disney releases these in batches only. A new AP order does not automatically become eligible for MyMagic (bands or FP+) until something happens at Disney IT to enable it. I think we are stuck just waiting, which stinks when you are going in just 3 weeks like me.

My son's band came today. Interesting to note that it appears everyone in the family is going to be sent their magic band in a separate box. We have 3 passholders in our family, and I submitted an order for all 3 at the same time.

The discount card comes enclosed in an envelope on the bottom of the box.

Black discount card. He has a FL seasonal pass. Back of the card has his name printed and the expiration date of his pass.

I forgot to take a pic of the magic slider that comes with it, but that was in there too. It's blue and says "Passholder 2014"

Mine arrived 20 minutes ago and I am local. My discount card is gold. I really can't see myself wearing this thing, but I'll give it a try this weekend. Used fastpass plus with the card last weekend and it went well.

Thanks for posting these!

I just got off the phone with the tickets CMs and they said if I purchased an AP today (for my trip in late May - 59 days away), I would be able to link the pass to my MDE and be able to book FP+ at 30 days (we're staying off site) and that they now have opened the MBs to all AP holders. So that must be official now? Either that on next time I call they'll say something else.

Ordered mine about 3 weeks ago and just noticed today the status changed from 'mid march' to 'will ship soon.'

 

[nancipants]

Got an email this morning that mine had shipped!

What is the slider for?
