So, I'm one of those people who waited on the phone for SEVEN STINKING HOURS to buy my Magic Key (which I've not used yet)... I played by Disney's posted rules about purchasing it Online that day instead of going to the park to buy it. My vent? I was told a regular ($160) park ticket I purchased could be used towards the Key purchase, but never saw a way to do that online at the time (and honestly, after seven hours I was so exhausted, even getting thru the purchase was a challenge).
I contacted Disney afterwards and was told I needed to have entered the Park with that ticket. and then purchase the Magic Key (you know, the one it took seven hours to get, so no, I did not go into the park with my $160 ticket "just in case" I could buy a Magic Key that day...
Fast forward to today, I called again and asked if I could at least apply that regular $160 ticket (unused) to upgrade my $500 Imagine Magic Key (unused) to a $1,200 Believe Key.
I got the usual run around about how I should have gone into the park that ONE day they started selling Magic Keys again, and taken the chance I could have upgraded from there (risking a $160 ticket going a day I did not intend to go) and how the best fix would be to just not use the Imagine Key (which will expire if I don't activate it within a year of when I purchased it), go to the park, use the $160 ticket and use that towards the $1,200 Believe Key. [so sorry about the seven hours of your life and $500 Imagine Key purchase? um no.]
For today, I hate Disney. Hate. Disney. And it's stinking money grabbing policies.
