Phoning WDW internally

[steve3021]

If I'm staying at the Beach Club and ring the Poly or WL for example am I charged for the call?Or are all internal calls within WDW free?
Thanks...

found out the hard way............there's a charge (i called DB at BWV from OKW)
now we use our cell

You also can dial "0" for the wdw operator, and they'll connect you with no charge.

If you dial a local number yourself from a DVC resort, there will be a charge for the call (.35 for DVC members, .75 for other guests).

If you dial "O", the WDW operator can connect you to internal WDW phones from their directory without charge. We've done this to call MS many times while at WDW.

Enjoy!

Thanks, but just to clarify:-
If I dial '0' I can be put through to the desk at one of the other hotels free of charge?
I wanted to phone ahead if I was planning on pool-hopping.
Thanks again....

What I did before we pool-hopped to SSR and BWV from OKW was hit the 'front desk' button on the phone and asked to be connected to the front desk at each of the hotels. Both times, the operator asked if she could help and I explained we were DVC members and calling to ask about pool-hopping. Both times I was put on hold and when the operators came back they said they were told to tell us to come on over. I have no idea who they spoke with, but we had no problems once we got to SSR or BWV.

I call the WDW operator whenever I am trying to reach another WDW resort guest. I have never had a problem & have never been charged.

Thanks for the replies.
As far as pool hopping goes, once you have the all clear over the phone, do you also have to 'report in at the desk or pool area' once you get there?
