We are going to Disney in October, and I need to link our tickets to my MDE account as our FP+ date is August 12. I am the only family member with an actual MDE account, and DH and DD are in my account as "family and friends" who are going on this trip. I just went into my account to discover that DH is listed 3 times, all with different amenities, as follows:
#1: Name is MR. DH, and he has 1 magic band ordered, 1 hotel reservation, and 0 dining linked to this listing.
#2: Name is Mr. DH and there are no amenities showing up.
#3: Name is DR. DH and the listing shows he has 3 dining reservations.
I tried to cancel listing #2 and although the system told me "sorry, can't do that at this time," when I went back into my MDE account I saw that this listing of DH was gone, so I will assume the system deleted this even though it said it couldn't.
(great way to spend $1.5B
)
NOW: Which listing do I try to delete? I am really worried that with 2 listings in his name, DH is going to have LOTS of issues with his MB and FP+ while we are on vacation. (If something weird is going to happen, it happens to DH; he just attracts this kind of thing somehow. PLUS he is not the biggest Disney fan in the world, so if we have to go to GS every day to straighten out his MB issues
let's just say it won't be pretty, or fun
)
According to the system, if DH has any experiences linked to his name, his listing can't be deleted, so as of right now, he is stuck with 2 listings. None of my ADRs have guest names listed with them, just my name and 2 guests. If I go into the ADR account and add DH's name on the MR listing, will it automatically put MR. DH on the ADR and take DR. DH off?
FTR, for our trip I have ordered 3 magic bands, have not yet linked any tickets, the correct hotel reservation is showing up, we have three ADRs for meals (3 guests at each) and one for Epcot After Hours at La Cava (also for 3 of us).
DD shows up just fine: she has 1mb ordered, 1 card (from a 3/2013 trip), 1 hotel, 3 dining, and 1 paperless ticket. Not sure what the paperless ticket is (unless that's how the La Cava ADR shows up).
SO Should I mess with this and try to get DH onto only ONE listing on my family and friends? How best to do this??
Can I just say the old system was SO much more user-friendly? I hate it when IT tries to make everything so simplified that it just complicates things!

it was gone!
I was just really worried that the "rest of the noise" was going to be where DH's FP+ reservations would become buried, and we'd spend an hour at GS every morning trying to straighten it out
, then be accused of lying by CMs when he tried to actually USE the FP+s.
Not that I would have anything to worry about or any previous poster's experiences to learn from or anything, right?
