Lost TIW card

[Paticake]

As we get ready to make our ADRs on Sunday for our Nov. trip I realized that neither DH or I had the TIW card. We searched high and low. We purchased it on June 28th. Is there a record ? Can we get a replacement? TIA

You won't like this, but I think the replacement charge is $50 now. (It was $25 before, but I think they raised it to $50 when they raised the price last time).

The lost replacement is $60 now, they told us when we bought it in June...makes more sense to just buy a new card and the date starts from when you buy it so you are getting alot more time with a new card than a replacement one.

If you just bought the membership, you might pay for the lost card fee - but if it's relatively close to expiring, just buy a new membership since the card replacement cost is so high now.

Thanks for your replies. DH checked his wallet again after I tore apart everything we had from our vacation. He had been looking for a plastic card like the old DDE card. I found the card right under his DVC membership card. phew!!!!!

Good news!

That is good news that you found it. The replacement fee is $50 now.

Why is the replacement fee so high?

That's a good idea - I've lost mine but my husband still has his, though he'll be leaving to go back home a couple of days before the rest of us in November. Instead of getting the replacement, I'll just pony up $25 more dollars for a new one to extend my membership. Thanks for the tip!
