How many DVC members do you think there are?

[CarolynFH]

My profile shows a club ID for each contract we own even though we own multiple contracts at a couple of resorts.
My SO only shows one such ID that is identical except with that one ending in .1 and with mine ending in .2

My wife's name is on all three of ours and she has 3 member ids on the dashboard. I dont even know what our club id is

In your MDE app, in your Profile, under Memberships and Passes, does it say Disney Vacation Club Member? How many ID numbers do you have under that?

We have two contracts, but they’re both BWV and same UY, so same 12-digit Membership Number that applies to all 3 of us who own those contracts.

I only have one Club ID, 6 digits with a point-2 at the end. I’m pretty sure DH is the point-1, because he’s listed as Primary Purchaser on our contracts.

I’m trying to sort out the difference between this 7-digit Club ID and the 12-digit Membership Number. It’s obvious the Membership Number can apply to multiple people, so I’m thinking the Club ID is what identifies an individual person, but y’all can help clarify that since you have multiple memberships.

Mine all say DVC and have one for each contract we own. I only have one that is the smaller number one. That is the one that my SO also has the only difference being .1 vs .2

IOW, sounds like the 7-digit one identifies the person, while the 12-digit ones identify the memberships.

Is this in your profile in MDE? In MDE, all I have is the short one (my Club ID), not the longer membership number.

ETA - I'm talking about in MDE, not the DVC member website. On the DVC member website, I see our membership number followed by our two contract numbers (which are 7 digits followed by a point-0 or point-1, total 8 digits). I don’t see a Club ID (total of 7 digits) anywhere!

Yes I have multiple long and one short but SO just has short one with the .1 showing

Have your SO other look I bet she has more.

 

[Girlstar30]

My membership numbers don't show up there, only on my dashboard

 

[Girlstar30]

What is the club id for

 

[Girlstar30]

I think the Club ID is different from the Membership Number. DH, DD, and I are all owners of one Membership, but we each have a separate Club ID. And my Club ID is listed in my profile in MDE, Memberships and Passes, under Disney Vacation Club Member. So that’s why I thought it would be an easy way for DVC to count the number of members, both total across all resorts as well as per resort. DH, DD, and I would count as 3 members in the overall DVC total and 3 members of the BWV condo association.

You have two membership numbers, but how many Club IDs do you have? Since I have only one membership, I might be looking at this with incomplete information.

The ID number in the MDE account, shown in your profile where the site also identifies you as a DVC Member since you signed up providing that site with information that shows you are a DVC Member, is applicable to MDE, a general Disney account, and is not a DVC account number. Anyone can sign up for an MDE account, not just DVC members, and all who sign up receive an MDE account ID number.

The information as to number of members per resort that appears in the BVTC Disclosure Document has been provided since DVC began in the 1990s. The MDE account and its account number did not exist before the MDE account was created in August 2012, and there was never mention at the time that BVTC (or DVD) was going to cease using the same sources for DVC member information it had always used before to provide the per resort member numbers.

That per site information in the BVTC Disclosure Document shows for each DVC Resort a total number of member owners of each resort. Any member that owns two resorts is counted in both, and thus the numbers provided cannot be added up to determine the actual total number of all DVC Members. Perhaps if DVC used the MDE ID numbers, it could provide a total, although that assumes, possibly incorrectly, that every DVC Member actually has an MDE account, and that BVTC/DVD has easy access to the information in that Disney-in-general MDE account, i.e., the DVD/DVC employees may not even have access to that information. In the 27 years I have been a member, I do not recall DVD/DVC ever actually publishing a total member number for all of the DVC members.
