Only 8 days until I'm in the world!!!
I'm wanting to purchase Memory Maker and was just about to finalize my order when I read the following:
"You must present the original credit card used during this purchase, a valid Government-issues ID, and confirmation number at the time of pick up"

The credit card that I'm using is a prepaid travel card that I got from my bank for my trip (I'm from Australia) so it doesn't have my name on it.
Will this matter? Or will the name on my order confirmation be enough because it will match my ID?
I would hate to spend $150 on it and not be able to pick it up at will call!

Or!! Is it an alternative to choose domestic shipping and get it shipped to my resort (YC)
Will there be enough time for delivery by the 29th March?
TIA
 
Why did you wait so long to ask the question.

My answer as always go to the source. Which is Disney directly. I would try to sent them an email with you question.

They will get back to you.

The whole idea the cost of the item is $149.00 as an advance sale.
 
I was able to add the memory maker to my magic band through the MDE website with the will call id number. When I arrived I checked with concierge and everything was good to go. I didn't have to show ID or the credit card.

This was 2 weeks ago. I had to link it to my band through the MDE website not the app since it was will call. This worked for my tickets which were also will call.
 
Why is it that when you buy MM+ they don't just add it to your account immediately on MDE, and then ship you a card?

I'm not sure what you mean by "why did I wait so long to ask the question"...?
I just decided to purchase it. I haven't yet as I saw the above and stopped before processing, so I haven't waited at all to ask.

Also, I was under the impression that the DIS was a great place to go to ask these sorts of questions as it could take days to get a response from Disney directly.

And again, I get it that it's a cheaper price as it's an advance purchase... The advance purchase can be made up to 3 days prior to being able to use it, so I'm almost triple the amount of days out before I get there to purchase MM.

Ok so that seems ok.
It should be sufficient that I have the card, and my ID that will match the order, but I've contacted my agent at Dreams unlimited to ask her advice before I forge ahead!!
Thanks for your help!
 
Sorry for the unfriendly response you received from PP. I think you will be fine. Even if you need to show the temp CC, the numbers will match up to your transaction.

Have a magical vacation.

Thanks and that's ok, there's always one keyboard warrior with something to say.
I mean, why come on the DIS if you don't like asking or helping respond to questions?!

Anyway, I'm hoping to get confirmation from my TA, but I think you're right, it should be ok. I just had a pre-trip freak out moment I think!!
