In the grip of a progressive illness.

I don't need any more MagicBands.

 

[Brian Noble]

Huh, I wonder what designs they have for pre-arrival? I'll just take a look.

But I don't need any more MagicBands.

 

[Brian Noble]

Ooooh! A Villains band!

Where's my wallet?

 

[Forevermarypoppins]

i don't need any more Pins! And yet I had to glance at the new exclusive Visa cardholder LionKing pins.
I said NO!

I wish MagicBands were transferrable and I could gift some of our older ones. Seems like such an eco-waste problem to have them in a drawer/landfill. Would also be nice to open resort doors with a smart watch for those who want to track steps/health but don't want both a smart watch and MagicBand; yes, pulling out the MDE app works, but I'm apparently challenged to pull it off successfully, much to my wife's amusement!

Good luck expanding your collection, @Brian Noble !

Now that they are rechargeable, I really don't need any more. But....what does need even mean?

The standard MB's are transferable. You need to delete them from your account and the new owner activates them using the number on the back. The new MB+ I'm not sure about.

That's not true. Once tied to a MDE account, you can't swap it to another one.

What really helps is they have a pretty small and crappy selection for pre arrival currently.

That's true - and then my wife sees 2 she has to have at the Arts Festival..... and the F&G Festival..... and the Holiday Festival.....!

I just looked. I have 7 MB+'s and 6 MB 2's hanging from my desk lamp, plus one in my car door pocket. Who knows how many old ones are hiding in drawers (and those are just mine).

Keep in mind though, Magic bands are just a gateway drug. The DW has recently "discovered" that she loves limited edition, commemorative, and "theme park exclusive" Pandora charms (not to mention the resort-specific ones). Magic Bands seem so quaint and inexpensive in hindsight.

Your just wrong, I've done it more than once.

I just wish you could delete old magic bands and cards from your account, I have 16 cards/bands.....

You can deactivate them from your account. I had to because I had too many and it made the new and newer ones work kind of wonky. The FD told me it was because I had too many linked and to deactivate some. I did and voila - no more issues!

I only have a couple that are active, the reset are deactivated, but I wish you could just deactivate and delete. I think we have thrown away all the ones that are deactivated, so it makes no sense to have an account with them in it.

If you sign into your MDE account and choose "MagicBands and Cards", then choose the person, and if you scroll down, it should give you the option to deactivate each band associated with your account. You can reactivate or "report as lost" there, too. It will group them according to the type of band they are, I have a bunch under MB+ and then others as just the regular old MB's. There is even an option for admission cards and to create/change a PIN to use the band to charge to a room account.
