New expiration date for meal vouchers???

[momof2OH]

Does anyone yet know if the Connection meal vouchers have a new expiration date past May 03?

I'm waiting, too.

We are going in June, so I hope to start ordering them soon.

I talked to Connections today (I'm also going in June) and they said that the expiration is still 5/03. I explained my dilemma so the operator I was speaking to double checked with the supervisor who said that yes, that was the correct expiration. He said he hadn't heard of anything else coming out soon and thinks that they may be discontinuing the program. After everything I've read today about Mary at Mousesavers pulling her endorsement due to consistent, ongoing legal problems with Connections I think I'm not going to deal with them anymore.

I had e-mailed Connections to ask about the expiration date and when new vouchers would be released since I am going in June also. I was very specific about which vouchers I was interested in purchasing. I got an e-mail back stating that the vouchers do not have an expiration date on them. I had to laugh since I have seen the expiration date with my own eyes! Needless to say, I immediately canceled my membership.

I ordered some a few days ago and the supervisor said they expire the end of the year, well I got them today and they expire may 31/2003.
On a positive note I called tonight to cancel and the man was extremely pleasant and did not give me a hard sell. He offered me a $60 rebate on utilities billed to my house so my memebership would be $20 for a year effectively. I thought about it, but I still said no to avoid any future hassle.
But perhaps they are improving their service.

Bump it up

The expiration date for the Disney meal vouchers is in May. If you are planning your trip for June I would suggest calling us mid to late May for more accurate information.

You can speak directly with a Membership Services Representative by dialing 1-800-339-0616. The call is toll-free and our representatives are available Monday through Friday from 6 AM to 11 PM and on Saturday from 6 AM to 5 PM central time.

I'd love to "bump it up" but I"ve pushed it as far as I can. DS graduates 6/6 & we're leaving 6/7. I'll try checking back in May but that could be really pushing it for early June. Thanks for letting me know...

 

[disneyjunkie]

I just with a supervisor at Connections. She said the new vouchers are due out in early May.

We'll see what happens

Just read on another post that the new Q&C voucher dates are out - May 2004

 

[momof2OH]

Thanks for posting. I saw that info on the other thread too. I was so thrilled to see that. Best news I've heard.

I just recieved mine today and they have an expiration date of May 31, 2004. They also say on the back thatthey are NOT valid on the kitchen sink at Beaches and Cream

Thanks guys for the expiration change! I'll call and order tomorrow! FYI the same company (Deal pass?) that runs Connections has a new, or at least new to me, spin off called "Simply You". It's very similar to Connections and also sells meal vouchers. Since they're the same company I'm sure we'll still have to keep track of the possibility of double billing, etc.

Just a warning, I ordered the quick and casual vouchers after reading that several people received them with new dates. Mine arrived today and they expire May 31, 2003.

Ordered 20 Q&C coupons a couple of days ago.
Arrived today - expiration date = 5/2004.
Note: When I have Norton Firewall activated, I cannot access the WDW option on Dealpass/Connections. If I disable it, I am able to order the vouchers online.

 

[donnsuz]

Thanks. I didn't even think of disabling the firewall!

 

[DolphinBoy]

I just purchased vouchers as well. The quick and casual vouchers expired on 5/31/04, but the character meal vouchers expired on 5/31/03. That my be why some people are reporting the different dates.

 

[ehagerty]

I wouldn't have thought of it either - except it was the "technical solution" in order to be able to have Turbo Tax interact with the Internet through Norton's Firewall. Nice solution, eh? In any case, Connections is not the "only other" instance I have had like this.

 

[bigsis1970]

If now all the vouchers have the 5-2004 exp date.. Breakfast and Q&C ? Thanks Michelle

 

[donnsuz]

I ordered my Q&C vouchers (by phone, disabling the firewall still didn't work!) a week ago. They came today (UPS had me sign for them and I wasn't home yesterday). They do have an expiration of 5/31/04. When I ordered them Connections told me that they expired on 5/31/03. I figured I'd chance it since several posts had been made with the new expiration. Sooooo, now the question is, has anyone bought VK or breakfast vouchers with the new expiration?

P.S. I even got my Disney passports in the same mailing!! I think we might actually be going!! Even my DH finally believes it
