I just called this morning to apply the Visa code. I had originally booked a standard view at WL but now have a courtyard view for $300 less than my standard view reservations.
original 7 nights standard w/5 day myw park hoppers for $2840
NEW 7 nights courtyard w/5 day myw park hoppers for $2501!
This is for 2 adults, 1 child (and a 2 yr old who doesn't count).

I'm so excited!! Thanks to everyone who posted about this!

I received a 25% savings on my entire package, room, tickets and dining.

I am extremely happy, me and the DBF were going to go with the POP to save money but with the visa code we'll being staying at the Caribbean Beach Resort for the same price that we would have orginally stayed at the POP. CBR wasn't our first choice but POR was booked. Anywho it was about a $350ish savings.

Any word on AP rates yet today? Nothing is on Mousesavers yet, but I know the Disney Visa code wasn't up yesterday until later in the AM. Maybe I'll call CRO just to check

The Disney Visa e-mail said the discount opens to the public on August 16.

Woohoo!!! Since we already have our room reserved and deposit paid, I assume they will just give us the discount on our current room. I am not sure if it works that way, but it seems logical to me! I can't wait to find out, though
Guess I'll be on the phone Thursday morning

I could've been given wrong information, but I don't think it works that way. I have a current ressie for 11/9-12 (3 nights - the minimum for Visa offer) at CBR. I was on the phone forever with a very good CM, he really checked all availability for me and all they had was SSR and OKW for my dates for this promotion. He couldn't just apply the discount to my current ressie. I really only want to stay at CBR - want to be close to MGM being that we're going to Super Soap. I'm holding out for a room only offer

I already have a ressie at CSR for Nov 15-19. I want to stay there and not move if I can help it. Could I keep calling back each day to check availability if CSR is not available? I have to wait until Thursday to book the code, so I'm concerned that it might be booked up.

Hi! I have a correction to my response! I just got off the phone with CRO about being able to append the code to an existing ressie. I just learned that I was told that I could not, because my original ressie was for "Room Only" not a package. If I had originally booked a package, I would have been able to append it. So, good for you if you booked a package originally! Unfortunately, I only booked room only and she told me the only availability to create a new package ressie was OKW and SSR, just like the CM yesterday told me. I orignally didn't do the package because my friend and I weren't sure if we really needed the hoppers because we were doing SSW and would be tied up in MGM most of the time. Oh well . . . "coulda, woulda, shoulda"!

Disnemimi, sorry to get back to you so late and hope you've had some luck since this morning...

We're going to be there from Nov 8 thru the 13th. I've called twice today and no luck on downgrading my room back to a standard...guess I'll just have to get used to the idea of a great view and $242 extra bucks in my account.

I was under the impression that AP rates were different than the rates released to the 'general public.'

 

[Minnie&Nana]

Yep, AP rates are only available to those who have an Annual Pass.

A general public public code will be different - probably about the same savings as the Disney VISA code.

Sometimes AP rates are better, but not always. We had pin codes in 2004 that were much better than the AP rates that year!

Any discount is always welcome!!

 

[FionaLovesShrek]

Not sure what dates you all are hoping for, but I've called 6 times since the discount came out and I am not able to upgrade or add it to my existing reservation. Our dates are for Thanksgiving week. A few minutes ago I was told the only thing available is SSR.

Thanks, I thought so! Here's hoping for maybe tomorrow

Does anyone have an idea of what time this discounts would become avaialble?
Most people have said that August 16th is the day but what time could this happen?

12midnight?
5am?
8am?

I want to make sure I'm calling as soon as they're available to the general public. Please! Any help or ideas about the time would be great?

I'm planning a trip with my wife and two daughters Nov.2 - Nov. 10 and I'm hoping for a good discount to make this affordable

 

[Bama174]

Typically between 7 and 8 A.M.

I called at about 8:30am as soon as I read online the visa discount was available. I never thought I would get the discount because GF is showing no availability on-line for my dates. I was shocked when I saved $552.00. I think if I called later in the day I would not have gotten a discount.

 

[RayH]

Thanks, Bama! Should I just call at that time and ask for a discount or MUST I have the code letters? If I do need them how can I get them at 7am? I don't think anyone will be on these boards at that time in the morning, will they??

I am also wondering about this. I plan on waking up at 6am my time to call and am wondering if they will let me book it without a code.
