back on for round 2 today to try for CRT / Teppan Edo / Wolfgang Puck March (the only ones that weren't loaded this morning). Estimated wait time 25 minutes...and I can't believe they are still playing the same song from this morning!!

I just got off the phone with DVC and got all of my reservations. The system is running very slow. I suggest whoever gets through as the CM books your reservation as them to give you the confirmation number right away, not at the end of your call. The CM I ws just speaking to said her computer has been going offline throughout my call and I did not request those confirmation numbers, I would have lost what I already booked and has to start over from the beggining. It took a little longer, but everything was secure after each request.

GOOD LUCK EVERYONE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Finally got pixie dust and a recording asking questions and then it just switched to a busy signal!!!!

I finally got through and was able to get all of mine (except CRT) within a few minutes of what I wanted. Really strange though - she found double bookings under me and this is the first time I got through by phone and I never got through on-line. I hope someone else's dining wasn't put under my name on accident because she cancelled out the double bookings. Anyway, I got:

3/6 LTT @ 5:45
3/7 1900 PF @ 5:45
3/8 Coral Reef @ 11:45
San Angel @ 5:45 (not sure about this one)
3/9 Chef Mickey's @ 6:30 for my boys 4th bday
3/10 Kona Cafe @ 5:35
3/11 Le Cellier @ 6:20
3/12 Crystal Palace @ 5:45
3/13 Narcoossee's @ 6:05

Anyone getting through yet with DVC?

 

[JasonDVC]

OK finally made it through and got a wonderful CM. I got all mine including Ohana and LeCellier (No CRT yet). There is still plenty to choose from for mid April.

So keep trying. I have been up since 5:45am too and just finally got through a while ago.Even after having spoken with a CM earlier to tell me to call back.

So sending some Pixie dust to everyone

Happy Dining




We have Ohana at 6:20 with 8 people.We'll see you there.

Rhode Island Mid April? You must be going during school vacation week. I am going the week prior so I am hoping there will still be plenty of availablilty when I get thru but I've been calling since 7am and have not had the phone ring yet. Been on with DVC twice and each time they told me the system went down again. I'll keep trying!

DO NOT GIVE UP!!!!! I've been up since 4 am trying like the rest of you. Probably went way over on my cell minutes But around 11 am I got the Pixie Dust and stayed on hold for about 35 - 40 min. Got a very nice CM who booked 3 ressies at a time, with a lot of glitches, and just completed booking 15 ressies! JUST KEEP CALLING. Got through on the reg. dining line (WDW Dine)...Saying prayers for everyone still tryingGood luck and keep posting...you all kept my hopes up!

 

[lemondog]

FINALLY! Add me to the success list. I was up at 4:45 (central) to try online...no-go. Then started dialing in around 5:55 am. After trying for over 90 minutes to get thru I gave up and went back to bed.

Got up and dialed in again around 9:15...finally got thru at 9:30. Was told the wait was 20 minutes, I waited exactly 30. Spoke with a very nice and apologetic CM named Sandra. I was on the phone for 1 hour 15 minutes because her system was soooo slow (that will be a massive phone bill) but I got MOST of what I wanted.

-Could not get CRT because she said it was not showing up for March at all (although some here have gotten thru). I will try back but made a backup ressie just in case.
-LeCellier already completely booked for lunch the day I needed it. Oh well, I did get my backup.

What I got (all within 1/2 hour of requested time)

3/13 - Ohana (d)
3/14 - Chef Mickey (b), Biergarten (d)
3/15 - Chefs de France (l), Boma (d)
3/16 - Ohana (b), Brown Derby FP (d)
3/17 - 1900 Park Fare (b), Crystal Palace (d)
3/18 - Tusker House (b), Yachstman Steakhouse (d)
3/19 - Crystal Palace (b), Tonys Town Square (d)

How can so many of you start/got through and I have been trying since 8 am, really much of the 4 hours without stopping!

 

[HHMcG]

I'm sitting her at work, on hold, listening to Disney music, eating my lunch.
They tell me less then 25 min.

 

[mickeymoonbride]

got in with DVC MS. Got my one ressie for Mar. 19. Le Cellier Lunch. Had to wait on hold about 20 minutes before talking to a human, at least the music wasn't bang bang bang went the trolley! System seemed a little slow...
GOOD LUCK!!! KEEP TRYING!!!! Have a magical day!
