[Elise79]

Went to pre-order for our upcoming trip and the price is now $149 - procrastinating sometimes pays!

Here's the link with both pre-orders on one page:

There is never a guarantee about the length of Disney offers. They rarely post and 'end date' for promotions like this. At a guess, they are trying to draw more folk to try it out by making it better value in a bid to generate more widespread feedback both for their marketing purposes and to promote their product through forums, reviews and word of mouth.

The pre purchases don't expire in your cart. We are planning April 2014 and seeing this, I am probably just going to order it now and leave it there to redeem whenever we go. Worst case scenario: they change the system/product and you convert it to whatever they have at the time or request a refund (in which case you should not break the seal on the case that is shipped to you beforehand).

If you like it and can, go for it. They have previously had offers like this on the resort photo sessions. Left them running a while and then hiked the prices by about 50% and dropped the content, but still honored whatever the deal was at the time of purchase.

Phone the photo pass line on this number this phone number with the code for the uk 001 407-560-4300. The lady on the end of the phone was really helpfull. Give it a try. They are open from 9am

When i phoned i told them that i had just noticed that the photo pass plus had gone down in price, and i had heard that if i had not used the voucher yet that i may be able to get a refund on the difference. The lady on the telephone was really very helpful. Just took my email address and could tell that we have not used the voucher yet.And said that $20.95 would be credited back to the card i used Not long now though Hope this helps

I know I should know this but what do you actually receive if you buy photopass. Is it unlimited printed pictures that you can pick up from photo pass shop. I always thought photopass was just where you could view on line and then order and pay for individual photos so am totally confused. Next year our whole family coming with us for first time so might be something we look into. This will be our 10th trip and must admit we had sort of given up on taking photos but would like to start again.

 

[Cumbley]

I emailed and they responded saying they would refund!

 

[Magic Megadegs]

Just tried to order mind and site playing up completely so not processing. Will try again in the morning x

You get all the photos added to your Photopass account, so yes, the ones you can see online. You do not get the prints. You get all the digital images on a CD (or CD's if you have too many to fit on one - we had 5 CDs this year). There is no limit to how many you can have added.

Once you have added the codes from the back of the card(s) to your online account, all those photos are added and you can edit the photos by adding exclusive Disney borders and stickers to them. You also get a copyright release which allows you to use your photos for personal use, print them or make gifts with them. It is much cheaper to order your own prints here from the digital files, but there is nothing stopping you from ordering prints from Disney if you so wish.

If you opt for the photopass plus you get all of the above, but you also get to add ride and character meal photos to the CD. Hope this helps.

Hmmm... Have to say I'm tempted, never done anything like this before, but have purchased a couple of photo's once home!
Just wondering if its worth it as we're not staying on site?

It makes no difference where you stay as the photos are only taken in the parks and at participating resort restaurants where they have a designated photo package with the meals. It hinges on how much time you spend at the parks rather than where you stay

We'll be there more than we won't apart from our 1st ever visit to Universal, but Disney is our love & that's where we will be, I think it'll be something nice to treasure especially as my Mum & Dad are joining us & we'll be able to capture our normally temperamental Dd's hopefully getting on together, we'll we can wish

Just managed to order it, very excited even though we don't go until next August, lol. Thanks for the tip!
