Magic Bands?

[Feisty Fairy]

Do they ship the Magic bands separately. I received the booklet with reservation information and vouchers for golf, luggage tags etc... today but no Magic bands

 

[The Uh-Oa!]

Yes, they will come separately.

You have until 30 days before arrival to customize them on MDE and then they are prepared and shipped. Even if you customize early, they don't ship any earlier.

Mine are still in the preparing/shipping soon stage, it's been like that since Thursday or Friday and it looks like we are going within about a week earlier than you. I was hoping they would ship out at least today so we could start decorating them Wednesday. Me and do are off work, guess not.

actually you really have outside of 14 to customize and have them ship, and until 4 days prior to customize and have at the hotel

Mine are still in the preparing to ship stage and we are 27 days away. I feel like I'm checking ever 5 minutes to see it switch over to shipped with a tracking number! We had major issues last year trying to get them. They never shipped, even after calling at least 8 x about them. Then we finally got an email that they would be at our resort. Well, they weren't there either! So we ended up with the standard gray! It was a bummer with all the trouble we went through to try and get them! So I am anxiously awaiting for the message to change that they are shipped! I'm hoping for a better experience this year with getting them!!!!

me too! Last year I got the notification at between 4-5am on Saturday 4/5 and we received them on Wednesday 4/9. I was hoping for the email overnight but no luck. So I will continue to check every couple of hours. I'm on pins & needles here! lol

Mine have switched to Shipped and I received the email with tracking and it is updated on MDE! I am 26 days out! Very excited about this because ours never came the last time! They are suppose to arrive in about 5 - 6 days according to tracking. So that would make it 20 days till my Disney vacation which seems to be on target for when everyone says they are receiving them these days.

 

[feistygalkmc]

Just checked before I came to dis boards and still the same for me. I'm at 25 days today....may call them tomorrow if they haven't shipped. This is making me nervous!

Ok I couldn't wait I just called lol she said everything's fine there was a slight delay due to the holiday, not sure if that makes sense or not since I'm seeing several others already get shipping confirmations. I was thinking maybe they got delayed because I am having them shipped to work. That address isn't the one on our reservation but she said that's not it. We should get them in the next 7-10 days she said, that seems like a long time. Hopefully I get the email tonight. I'm afraid we won't get them in time to decorate! We are painting two of them and one we are decorating with temp. Tattoos.

I hope yours ship soon! Looks like you are arriving 1 day before me and I got my shipping notice this morning!

 

[feistygalkmc]

Thanks, me too! I was checking out the May 2015 thread and I noticed others traveling within a couple days of when we arrive have got their shipping confirmation also. Hopefully we just got stuck in the system and they get pushed through. Crossing my fingers and still checking every couple hours lol

We are 15 days out and mine just arrived. Meanwhile, my dad and my MIL who we are taking with us got theirs at the beginning of last week.
