How long will Disney Reservations be down?

So some people are seeing glitches of cheaper rates. I tried searching for rooms under the room only discount out for October and saw this:

I don't think there is any room at that hotel that comes close to that cost lol.

Yeah, I saw a standard rate at AKL that was over $2500 a night!

ROFL- if that price hike holds I'm not even gonna be able to afford the Values anymore!

ETA: @FSU Girl WL was booked 16 times in the last 24 hours? At those rates? Sure it was Disney, sure...

yep, Sunday they had Boardwalk inn with free dining for 5 nights listed $1489 including two day parkhopper and waterpark I tried to switch so fast lol. When I couldnt book online I called and the agent said they are having problems with the system and whats being showed on my end was an error.
 

I was able to get pricing for POFQ, but couldn't add it to my cart. Got an error message. What i really want is POLY, but it still says that all rooms are unavailable... sigh...
 
Truly no sarcasm here but the system can't still be down?? Or is it???
 
Ah, is this why I've been on hold for 45+ minutes because I've asked to change my reservation? The agent told me she was contacting guest services about an error on my reservation.
 
And still out of whack for several others, like the Enchanted Room Only

I wondered about this because we got a Poly standard room for one night only last week and the discount was only about 15% which I found odd because it said up to 25% on deluxes.
 
15% on some Deluxe wouldn't be abnormal at all. it's up to 25%, some will be less

Usually the deluxe discounts are more than 15% tho unless it's a sign of things changing and discounts being substantially less. Wonder what the discounts were on value and moderate rooms.

I don't think it's a sign. Just about every round of discounts there will be at least one of the Deluxes at ~15% and the rest at 25%-30%. Been that way for at least the last 10 years. It's why it's worded as "up to XX%" and not just "XX%".

Interesting! Never knew that - maybe just luck that whne we got a discount it was on the higher end vs lower.
 
Just checked again and there are still issues with AP rooms... I wonder if the rooms that are being allocated for the AP rates are being snapped up by other discounts? Florida residents etc... I'm sure it doesn't necessarily work that way but given the issues with the system I guess you never know! I'm just glad I bit the bullet all those months ago with a TA and locked in all the rates we needed.

No, rooms with the AP discount have not been fully booked up, the computer system is screwed up.

My travel agent was able to switch me yesterday to the passholder rate. CSR finally opened up a room block that has been on since at least 2/17, when I originally booked my vacation.

I went with the travel agent to get a good rate, but it got even better with my AP discount. Saved an additional $300 since I have 2 rooms booked. So glad that I can stop looking every day.
