Its worth a call to Disney!!!

[kddisney502]

Possibly a silly question but what number do you call to find out if there is a PIN attached?

The regular reservation number. Actually you could call any of the numbers, they all get forwarded to a central call center. You then have to go through an automated system to narrow your call down to an appropraite person.

Was there a discount on value rooms or did they not mention one?

 

[goofy78]

I AM SOOO EXCITED!!!! I haven't been to Disney in 8 years!!! DH and I were trying to figure out the best time to plan a trip to Disney around kids sports and school. We decided that the end of June was really the best. So, I figured I would sit tight and wait to see what offers may soon be announced or if I got another pin. I couldn't stand waiting, so I called Disney to see if I had anything attached to our name. Well, I had 35% off deluxe resort or 30% off moderate!!!! The dates were not avail for June but for Jan-Mar, April-May and Aug-Sept!!!!!!!! So we booked CB for April and saved well over $1,000!!!!! I am soooo excited!!! I have never had such luck!! We plan to head to Orlando from 4/18-28th.... Wahoo!! So give Disney a call and see if you have anything attached to your name.... its worth the 15 mins to get thru!!! Good Luck!!!

What type of room did you book? I just tried calculating the same discount for the same dates at CB with 30% off and the highest discount that came up was $874.20. It is close to $1000.00 but you stated you saved well over $1000.00. Am I missing something here?

I think the OP meant to type BC, not CB.

I think the OP meant to type BC, not CB.

That would make more sense but not sure if that's what she meant. No ticker. OP, can you clarify? I would love 35% off BC! That would save us $1100.00!

 

[Sparrow624]

All,

No, they did not tell me what the PIN offer was, simply that my "household" was not associated with it and to call back on or after Dec. 1. I have no idea why, but that was interesting.

"That would make more sense but not sure if that's what she meant. No ticker. OP, can you clarify? I would love 35% off BC! That would save us $1100.00! "

YES!!!!! you are correct!! I must have been so excited that I was Dyslexic that I put CB instead of BC!!! I booked a GV room for the Beach Club from 4/21-4/28 (we will stay off property for a few days before that) since the offer began on 4/21. Sorry about the confusion... i'm a newbie

I just happened to call to check to see if there was an offer associated with our "household"... and to my surprise there was. The CM did tell me to watch my mail because there was a very good possibilty that I may recieve a FD in the mail. She told me that it would be about about a $1600 savings for the 4 of us and I could only use one of the offers. I asked if everyone was getting this offer and she said "no, its ramdom and may be becuase you have not stayed with us in a few years" ... I was not going to argue with her!!! I did however notice that the office was listed in my husband's name and the only thing that he would have his name on for Disney, is the Chase Visa card. Everything else is in my name. hmmmmmm

As far as the Value resort question.... She said only Moderate and Deluxe...not value.

Thanks for clarifying. Have a great trip!

That is interesting. I wonder if the PINs are released in batches...so some new ones come out Dec 1?

 

[loveshak22]

General question for the group -

I just booked my trip for late January. I assume the CM would've told me if there were a PIN associated with our household?

 

[LittleStinkerbelle]

The dates were 1/2-3/24 and 4/21-5/22 and 8/11-9/28.... good luck!!!

Oh sadness , this excludes all but the last night of our April trip. Not that I got the PIN anyway, but it's nice to dream.

Or the CM didn't know what he was talking about. Sorry to sound cynical, but this wouldn't be the first time.

I agree. I called this morning and while I did not have a PIN, the CM told me that we can expect some deals very soon and to keep checking the website.

I agree. The CM I talked to said to keep checking emails and when I asked if she knew of about when the deals and pins would come out she said they aren't told and it is always a surprise to them when the pins are released. They aren't told in advance so who knows!?

 

[mom2princesses2]

Has there been any other reports - even just one - on DisBoards of this type of discount or any others with a PIN for 2013?? I haven't found any so I'm wondering...

...Has the wait for a discount made me disheartened and cynical enough to think that this is as real as Prince Ali?

 

[DisneyFEB2013]

Yeah, I have been wondering why we haven't seen any others who have received a PIN. The CM this morning told me that there haven't been any PINS released, but I just took that as she was misinformed.

 

[twodogs]

No PIN for me when I called today.

I'm confused about your question. The first page of this thread is about how the OP got a pin for 2013. I've seen at least one other thread today as well.

 

[mom2cse]

I was also told nothing has been released for 2013 except military.

 

[Dreamer7787]

No pin code for me either. I want to book the rest of our honeymoon so bad but the discount will definitely be the deciding factor on where we end up staying.
