No bounce back offer

[staceymarie]

Just stayed at CR from 4/16 through 4/19. I just realized that I got no bounce back offer. Is the bounce back something offered at each stay? I do remember seeing it on each of our other stays.

As far as I can remember, we've always received bounce-back offers but we go in the fall, Sept./Oct. Maybe when you stay has something to do with it.

There is a room discount BB offer right now for 35% off Deluxe and Villas, 30% Mods and 25% Values, but the remaining BB dates left are only through December 2012:
4/29—5/26/12, 6/3—6/9/12, 8/5—10/6/12, 10/21—11/3/12, 11/11—11/17/12, 11/25—12/1/12 and 12/9-12/15/12.

This particular flyer shows Deluxe resorts, but the fine print mentions you can ask about other resorts/categories.

Sorry you missed this particular BB. Flyers seem to be hit or miss, so you should always call extension 8844 from your resort room before checking out to ask about ongoing BB offers.

I think it is just the contempary. We where there for 2 weeks in march and not once got the offer. Never saw it anywhere. Not on mousekeeping carts or in room. I knew better so I called the number and got our summer trip booked with the discount. But, the CM did refer to the "code" on the card. So thanks for everyone that put the pictures of the offer up. I copied the info and was ready.

We stayed in the CR in January and I was looking for the BB card...it was nowhere in sight...
I went to the front desk to inquire and the CM didn't know about it so I asked to speak to a manager~ he said they (the CR) don't participate in the BB offers. I was really annoyed because we had already stayed at the Poly and BWI during the same trip and they had the offers in the rooms. I waited until I was at the CR to actually book. He was accommodating and called the Poly for the code for me. (Not because he wanted to be, but because I was pretty firm about it, lol).

I have no idea why CR does not do BB~

We just got back last night and the card was in our room at POR.

Thanks for posting the pic of the flyer PP!

We're heading down this weekend and I copied the info just in case we don't get the flyer in room either.

The flyer was in my room at WL yesterday - I booked my September trip with it. I have never heard of a specific resort not participating. However, the fine print does say "This offer is only available to guests of select Walt Disney World resort hotels." so it's possible that CR has chosen not to participate. Maybe it's because they don't seem to have much trouble filling their rooms since their inventory was reduced by BLT. When I booked my BB yesterday, I wasn't told that any resorts were off limits as far as booking goes, so I assume I could have booked CR if I wanted to (I wanted an Epcot resort for that trip).

Since my December dates aren't covered by the bounceback, I don't think I'll be trying to book a BB when I'm at CR in July. But I will certainly keep my eyes open to see if the flyer is there.

We received a bb offer when we stayed at OKW in June 2011, but no offer in room at AKV in August...think it is kind of like the PIN mystery Hoping for a bb offer when we stay at YC next week so we can buy tickets for MVMCP

are the bounce bacl offers the same % off each time or do they change?

We where staying at CR when I said we did not have an offer. But, I did call the # anyway. As long as I knew the info, I was fine & yes I did book the CR for august.

I just got back last week from a week at the Poly. I did not recieve a bounceback offer (nor was I aware of them to inquire about it). I wonder why? I hope I get a code for the fall b/c we are looking to book an Oct trip.

We were at POFQ in Dec 2011 and there was no bounce back offer. I ended up calling the extension on our last day and was disappointed that the offer (I think 20% off) was not that great. I think I got caught in a bad spot. Had I called at the beginning of my trip for the bounce back (totally forgot about it), I think it was for free dining, but it had switched over to another offer midway through our trip. It sounds like they aren't leaving bounce back offer promo cards in the rooms as consistently as they used to. Had I not heard about it here prior to our trip, I would not have even known to call.

Complete speculation here but does anybody think the BB offer will change by the end of Aug? We are going Aug 24-Sept 3 and are planning another trip for May 2013 and was wondering what the chances would be of getting a BB that would be effective for that time frame .

Obviously this BB wouldn't work since it is only effective through 2012.

If I remember correctly, the bouncebacks for the next year don't come out until very late in the year. I remember going in September last year and looking for one for January of this year and not having it yet. Maybe October or November?

Pretty much every year for the past several years, the bounceback during this time has been for free dining for the following year for late August through late September or early October. I wouldn't count on a bounceback for May 2013 when you're there.

I just wanted to add that on my past 2 stays, there has been no Bounce Back flyer.

I called reservations both times while at the resort (still on vacation), and both times they had to transfer me, but Bounce Back offers were available. The most recent was at my AKL Jambo stay on 4/27.

The first time I called where I didn't have a flyer was at BLT in June 2011.
