... Hi, do I have a pin under my name.. XXXXX..
Well I have you booked in Sept is this right.. Is this for Sept?
No, I am thinking I might go in May too.. Sept Trip is set up DVC.
Let me check what are you looking for?
.. about 5 nights over Memorial Day with
free dining..
..Oh yes you have a 30% off room only .. it will be 119 a night and 129 a night..
.. I was looking for a free dining promo?
... Oh I found one. Free QS 10$ more for B D 6 nights at the FQ out the door with a day base ticket (AP Holder don't really need them). 1,557$.. This is the cost of room only with FR QS not 30% off.
Now.. I TOTALLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLY feel she pulled something out of her hat to sell me.. Will it work? I.D. K. I have 5 days to decide, AND sell my DH on it (eye roll coming). (5 days until the 45 day window.) Adding another 500$ for airfare.. when I was there is Dec 5 days, then jan/feb for 12 and going in Sept for 11.. MAYBE but FREE DINING, FREE PARK (AP), 2K include hotel and air.. WHY not right?
MAYBE
If you want a pin, and you have gone before she asked me this like 5 times.. Try it .. Cannot hurt. Thank you to whoever posted this before.. I cannot find it. .. BUT GOOD LUCK ALL!
(PS I never got an email, mailer, anything NO WAY could I miss it!)

I completely agree with the above that it seems like the CM's just pull stuff out of nowhere.
I just started on my quest for a pincode about 2 weeks ago. The day before yesterday I got tired of waiting and called the reservation line at Disney, spoke to a rather unhelpful CM who informed me I had nothing in the way of discounts under my name. . . I thanked her and called back to speak with another CM.
This CM was AWESOME. This time I mentioned that it's too bad that the special they are having now ends before my family's stay at Disney. She said, "Let me check to see if there are any discounts in your Mickey Portfolio" ... lots of sitting and waiting later, there was magically a discount. However, she couldn't tell me what exactly it was (said it didnt specify). She applied it to my reservations (which for whatever reason took FOREVER) and from the difference in price, I calculated that she applied the 20/30/40 code.
Still being curious, I called back yesterday to see if I could get the CM to TELL ME what exactly the discount is for. Gave him the discount code now listed on my ressies. He looked up my account... I waited, waited, waited... he couldn't find anything. He looked around some more and then, OH - yes, you um do have something here. . . I can't tell what it is - let me look. Then he says, what level resort are you staying in - I said Moderate and he said the discount is 30% off.
Tell me that doesn't sound like CM's just pulling codes! I'm glad I called, and there may really be a pin associated with my account - one way or the other, it's been applied.
Oh yeah, they also asked my phone number ... and if I've ever been to Disney before, no less than 10 times. . . and apparently the correct answer if Yes, and you need to give a date sometime after 1995... because she flat out asked, was it after 1995? Whatever!
All that to say - it's worth calling a few times - just to see.
