I got my BOG ADR!!!!

[Luv4Disney]

I got a 4:35pm ressie on December 9th as well. I gave up with the regular phone lines around 8:30 (had been listening to busy signals and whatnot since 7 EST). Called the DVC line at 9 am on the dot and got right through just as you did. I was so happy and the DVC CM was so pleasant.

Good luck and pixie dust to all of you still trying.

Yes, after I couldn't get through for 10 minutes starting at 7am, I had to get ready for work, so I figured I might as well just wait until member services opened. They were so pleasant and was so happy it's just done now. See you there and enjoy your dinner as I know we will be!!

Tried for 2 hours on various WDW dining lines...finally gave up and called DVC right when they opened at 9 am and, after a couple of tries, got thru, held for about 10 minutes,and made dinner ressies for 11/23 (party of 4) and 11/24 (party of 9). Yay! Good luck to others!

I was switching between the 3463 and number 2625, and finally got through on the 2625 number. Got my ressies for a group of 7 and a group of 8 on 12/16/2012. We have a birthday girl in the party. I'm hoping we can get into the ballroom.

Calling from PA... land line... cell phones... been calling since 06:55am.... Busy signals... this call cannot be completed...yadda, yadda, yadda, NO LUCK

I'm SO sad

Pm me your name , date , telephone , party time and preferred time. I can try through agents number for you

2 hours of calling I got through on the 2625 number. Thanks to whoever posted that. I was finalizing my reservation when the reservation system locked up on her end and she lost everything, then I lost the call. I almost started crying.

Tried again on the 2625 and got through in about 15 minutes.
5:20 on 12/15.
Keep trying!!

I had been calling since 7am and wasn't able to get through. Since I'm a DVC member I called Member Services at 9am and was able to get at reservation for the date and time I wanted (January 3rd, 6pm). If you're a DVC member I would STRONGLY encourage you to contact Member Services. If not, keep dialing and don't give up hope as there have been a lot of people who've been able to get through and get their reservations.

Keep the faith!

I feel so lucky. I got my preferred time of 5:45 at BOG after "only" a hour and a half on hold. But so many of you are still having a struggle. Here tossing some pixie dust your way. Good luck!

 

[luvs2cruise]

Got through on the 36th try which only took about 10 minutes. I got what I wanted on December 22. Tried for a lunch ressie on the 24th but all booked.

On hold....*clang-clang-clang went the trolley* Where is my fairy godmother when I need her?

while I would not consider myself a fairy godmother,... I did PM you LOL

 

[capecodprincess]

Just got my ressie!!! November 26th, 6:20pm the exact day and time I wanted!!! It took me an hour to get through, plus 45 minutes of hold music.... then someone on the DIS recommended calling through the UK number. I dialed 011-44-870 24 24 900 (free international with my phone company)... and I was through in about 2 minutes I am sooooo excited now!!

 

[poohbear13]

Have you tried the 1 407 939 7675 number? I was dialling the Dining number for 2 hours, dialled the 7675 number and was through in 3 minutes.

Got my ressie

is that the auto number? IF not, does anyone have the auto number?

 

[Charleyann]

I have booked. For 8 people this morning including myself !
good luck to all......

 

[LSUfan4444]

Started calling at 6 am (CST), got through about 7:20 am. Spent 20 minute on hold (recording said it would be 40 minutes), but had to get i the elevator at work and dropped the call. Haven't been able to get back through yet.

Disney's system will auto cancel any reservation that is supposed to have a credit card attached and doesn't. If it were me, and I booked through the auto system I would be calling back to get an agent and make sure my reservation was OK. If your reservation auto cancels and then someone else comes along and books your day and time there's not much Disney can do... Not saying Disney won't try to accommodate you when you find out days down the road that your reservation auto canceled but I wouldn't want to take that chance.

 

[MagicRat]

Tried over 200 times between 7:30 and 9:30 with no luck- all busy signals. Somebody on another post said to call the Disney Store at 1-800-328-0368 and ask them to transfer you. I did that and got my reservations 5 minutes later.

 

[backinoz]

Finally got thru on 2625 number - straight to operator and did need to supply CC details - not that this bothers me in the least. DD13 (to be DD14) will get to celebrate her birthday in BOG after all, just a bit earlier than I'd hoped but FYI the only thing available on the 16th Dec for party of four was 4.10pm for dinner.

 

[PirateFrank]

Holy ****ake Mushrooms batman, I got through!!!!!!

After 2 hours and 40 minutes of busy signals, "this call did not go through", "your call could not be completed as dialed", and sometimes, just nothing...not to mention at the 2:15 mark, I got through and was bumped immediately into the survey....


Anyway, I FINALLY got the familiar sparkle sound, carefully navigated my way through the automated reservation system and finally announced to my very anxious daughter that we will be dining at the Be Our Guest restaurant on her birthday, 1/10 at 6:30pm.

 

[DisneyKentucky]

I got Dec. 16 and 19. Went the alternate #s people suggested. I am a huge fan of online booking now, more than ever!

 

[poohbear13]

I am also willing to try for anyone that is still trying. I need the auto number though so I won't need credit card info. If you can find the auto number and send me the info I will need to make the ADR, I can try for you too.

 

[GraceMonica]

I made reservations for December 28th and realized I didn't want that date. So I called back and was able to get December 27th, for the same time! My grandmother and mother are surprised I was able to get through again.

I used 407-939-6244 It took me about 15 minutes to finally get through, but I did! It seems like my land line had better luck than my cell phone. Both were made on the land line.

 

[wdwscout]

Hooray for DVC!!!

I called from 7am-8:40am non-stop on landline and cellphone with ZERO luck.
Gave up, showered, ran out to get bagels, answered a few work emails and tried again at 9:30. Still busy.
Then I saw a few posts here and realized- oh yeah! DVC is open now!

Got through after a couple of busy signals, waited about 10 minutes and got a VERY pleasant CM who quickly made the ressie I wanted!

All done!

I do not want to participate in the madness again for a long, long time!!!!!!
