We became new DVC members on June 25th (on the Disney Dream Cruise). I know we are already fully "closed" and paid because we were already able to make a reservation for December. I have not received my membership cards yet. Does anyone know how long that usually takes?
The cards are processed, printed, and mailed in bulk by a outside contractor. Depending on how many they have to do and where they are in the cycle, I have seen it take a week and I have seen it take several.
If you ever need a replacement card while at WDW, the Preview Center at SSR can also print them.
New member in March 2011 never got a card until I emailed them at the end of July.. Mailed out and received about 1 1/2 weeks after the email. Hope someone else did not get my first card.......
