No Cindy's Ressies for us today

[**Tinker*Bell*7**]

I got up VERY EARLY this morning to call WDW for Cindy's ressies. They answered at 5:59 a.m. (CST) & I was immediately put on hold. Five minutes later, the CM came on the line and said it was sold out. I'll have to keep trying. There are still a few days left that I can try for.

What I would also do (it's what I did) is call back at 7:15 then maybe 7:30 for cancellations. Many people get more than one PS and WDW makes them cancel the others all within the first hour.

I couldn't get one at 7:00 and then 7:15 but at 7:28, there was a cancellation and I got my table for 4!!!

Good luck!

I didn't get CRT until my 5 day of calling. The other days I called back at 7:15 and 7:30 looking for cancellations, and I struck out. When I finally got CRT I used www.atomictime.net for my clock and dialed at 5 min. before opening. They picked up by 6:58 EST, and I had PS for CRT and Thanksgiving dinner at LTT and was hanging up at 7:03:30. I called DINE on one phone and Cent. Res. on the other. Good luck and keep trying.

We also started calling five minutes ahead. We had our home phone and our two cells going. The first day we were one hold foe over two minutes and didn't get anything. On our second day, one cell got thru right at 6:58 and I was speaking to a CM within a few seconds. The funny thing was the DH still dailed the other phones and they were getting the closed message. So I was able to get my ressies. The nicest part was that the day we got the ressies is for my birthday.


After this experience, I believe it is fate, luck and pixie dust!

I was trying today too...but I struck out....I am going to be a zoombie by the time I get one, I have to get up at 4AM to call. Today, I had a very hard time getting back to sleep...14 more days to try

Tink, this is so weird. The same thing happened to me. I got through, but my husband on the cell got the message that it was still closed and he difinately called after I did. It has to be magic!

Actually Disney has more then one call center, so while one might be up and running the other one might not be, yet....

GOOD LUCK TO EVERYONE ELSE!!!!!!!




P.S. I don't know where my countdown clock went but it's 57 days to our first Christmas at DISNEY!

Congratulations! I also was unlucky yesterday, but got right through this AM and got in! Today was my last chance, too. It'll require a change of itinerary and if I was dealing the cards, I wouldn't do an early breakfast the morning after MVMCP, but gotta take what you can get. We'll be there with bells on!

Congrats to both of you. For some reason, I get a that number has been disconnected, about half the time when I call and by the time I get it redialed it is 4am/7am or after, and already too late.

Day 3 tomorrow.
