I got my BOG ADR!!!!

[Michelle1125]

After calling 407-WDW-DINE a few times I called DVC member services and got a reservation for 5 at 7pm on January 13th. It was 2 hours ago and I was only on hold for about 10 minutes. I did confirm with a credit card. Good luck everyone!

Started calling at 11:30, had busy signal the first few times, then was on hold about half hour and the got lucky. I was ablei to get an ADR for 1/2/13 at 5:35 for party of 7. My DD will be so excited

I didnt get in...didnt know they'd changed the time you can call from noon to 7am. So I didnt call until Noon....

I was off the phone by 6:05AM (Central) and got just what I wanted. The 7 of us will be there 12/22 at 6PM!! So excited! When I called I got the start of a message saying that the lines were really busy, but then an agent came on! I was shocked! I have not read through every post, but from what I did read, I must have gotten very lucky! I did leave a credit card number.

Had to go through DVC Member services, but got the dates and times I wanted.
The wait was a little longer than usual for DVC MS today (15 minutes), but not bad at all considering I had no luck in getting through to Disney Dining.

Why oh why didn't they make reservations available online at the same time?

Why oh why didn't they make reservations available online at the same time?

If I were to guess, it's probably because they didn't want to accept the risk of their entire site going down due to too much server activity. If that did happen, then they wouldn't be able to book anything on the phone either, since it's the same reservation system. This way, the congestion is limited to the phone lines.

I made reservations this morning at around 7:20am through the automatic service on the phone. Then I called back about an hour ago, and YES, you need to have a credit card number attached to your reservation. If not, it will be canceled.

So... redialed from 7am to 10am. On hold from 10am to 10:40. Got a real agent, only to learn that the week I wanted was booked solid.

Sadly, no BOG for us. On the other hand, I *did* get a surprise reservation for lunch at Cinderella's Royal Table, so it's not all bad! I've never seen inside the castle, which means this will be a real treat.

I'm guessing there's been a bunch of CRT cancellations, as people take whichever BOGs they can get.

Yay! Just got through and got a reservation for two people during WDW Marathon Weekend! Will be a fun way to celebrate!

someone suggested calling this number 407.939.7718 on an earlier post. I called to add my credit card to my reservation that i made earlier this morning after waiting 2 hours! I was through and done with in 5 minutes!! They had to charge a penny to add my credit card but it is guaranteed now!!

Thanks to who ever posted this! Saved me lots of time!!

 

[krmlaw]

Update. I just checked my card and it was pinged for $0.01 SO I guess this means I'm good with my ressie!

 

[missusagi]

Was able to get a reservation for 9 on 1/15. THANK YOU to the person who suggested calling the 407-939-2625 number!!!

It is very likely I will NOT Be Their Guest this year.

Which is fine, what a great reason to go back to Disney on a BounceBack!

With a broken computer this weekend, I didn't even know BOG ADRs were open today....

 

[N&B'smom]

I got not one, but two!! We are starting our trip with dinner there AND ending our trip with dinner there (and friends of ours). SO happy!!

It was a rough road.....2.5 hours of nomstop busy signal or circuits are busy. Thankfully my friend made the one ADR and I made the other, when I finally got through, 2.5 hours later!

Then add in the fun of calling to put a credit card on file so it wouldn't be cancelled and being on hold for an hour and 6 min....oh my gosh...my brain is MUSH!!!

Whatever, it's over and we are GOOD TO GO!!!!
