Post Card / Email Pin Code Rates???

[LglBlonde]

Can you post your various finds of the recent post card rates? Here's the info I've got for May 2005

Value $59
Car Bch/PO Standard $79
POR King/POFQ River, etc. $95
WL Standard $124
WL Woods $137
WL Courtyard $156

I'm looking for more info about other Deluxe rates with this pin code/***(code removed--against DIS posting guidelines as this is NOT a public code) rate. It seems so far these are about 50% off rack rate!

yup I reserved the WL woods view for $137 yesterday for May25-June

Fran - we'll be there May 23-28!

Going in 5/9-5/13 Disney property, 5/13-5/20 Off-property, and 5/20-5/22 Disney Property again.

Here are some rates:

Poly - Garden View $239 (Conceirge was $340)
AKL - Std. Savannah $166 (Conceirge was $375)
BC - Garden view $219 (Conceirge was $375)
YC - Water view $290 (Conceirge was $375)

We did not make ressies at YC but accidentially asked and got the quote. Good luck with your reservations.

I also received a post card rate for the value resorts at $59.00 covering 4/17-7/4. We've already booked a five night stay at AKL (savannah) for May 8-13, so I would love to get a post card or email rate for the deluxes!

 

[LglBlonde]

Dreaming - mine said $59 for value too! Be sure to call them back b/c mine has worked for both moderate resorts and WL!!

The rates mentioned above are also the email pin rates that my MIL received (we are traveling together). I got a different email, and received higher rates (so we went with MIL's code of course). Rates available on my email:
Values $74
Moderates $99
CR garden wing $186
CR std $174 (no availability 5/22-5/28)
WL CY $174
WL Concierge $321
Poly GV $254

We originally had a 2 room package ressie (we were able to add MYW dining to the email code) at CR garden wing, but they didn't have any wing rooms available at CR with MIL's code, so we switched to a 2 room package at WL woods view, $134 per night for the room.

I'm sorry but I just want to clarify: the *** code mentioned by the OP is NOT for public use, correct? (edited to add--not a public code--you are correct, so it has been removed from this post--against board guidelines)

I have been waiting for May codes and when I saw this I thought I missed them!

thanks!

 

[kjs1976]

I got an e-mail code for moderates for the same dates mentioned above for $79 standard, $99 preferred. I also asked about using it for AKL but was quoted at $220 which is more than we can afford. We are going 6/7-6/14.

At the risk of embarassing myself, what are you talking about? I have no idea what e-mail or post card rates are! Can someone please explain. Thank you in advance!

So what are the chances that a person might have a pin/code connected to their name if you called in???

I called earlier this week to get rates for AP and they knew who I was by just my phone number.. I asked her how and she was able to tell that I had called back in 4/00 for rates and info. So they have all my info in their system I thought just maybe I might have a code??

 

[LglBlonde]

I read in another thread about some one who called and asked if a pin was associated with their name and lo and behold there was one.

We have AKL-savannah at $166 and CR-Tower for $265. We initally had Poly-GV and WL-Woods view with AAA rate, but when we called with the pin they didn't have WL available, so we took AKL, and my husband hates the Poly so we switched to CR-Tower. Of course, his big gripe with the Poly was that we were paying too much and it's old and ugly looking, but Poly-GV would have been about $30/night less than CR-Tower with the pin code. Ugh, oh well, next time I am not backing down from the Poly!

I got a postcard a couple weeks ago and it got lost or thrown out bc I figured there was NO way we'd make it to Disney this year. Well guess what? I am trying like mad to make it a reality. So after seeing mention of the pin codes here, I mentioned having the postcard but misplacing it when I called the res line. He pulled up my info and there was that lovely discount info on his screen It worked for all resorts Now just have to talk to DH about booking - they did a courtesy hold on the ressies for me til tonight. Wish me luck!!!

Some people receive emails or postcards with 13 digit "pin code" for discounts from Disney. There is no rhyme or reason to who gets what, but I believe it has something to do with 1) Disney Visa; and 2) being signed up for all offers on Disney's website; 3) buying stuff on Disney online.

I've gotten about 5-6 in the last year. Another Disboarder said her dad got one and he has never been to Disney, but does have a Disney Visa. For example, although I have Dis Visa, they would have no way of knowing my email. I had signed up with Disney online and made Dis store purchases online though, so that may be why I got an email. The postcards we have received are probably related to Dis Visa.

They'll hold your reservation for I think 2 weeks. We booked WL and Poly and they sent us the confirmation and we had 2 weeks to give a deposit, if not they cancelled the reservation.

this August? Or is it too early? I've never gotten an rate and I'm hoping for one this year.

 

[Tracie]

We got the postcard for $59 Values and used the pin for the AKL for $166 per night $185 per night with tax for savannah view rooms. I think the Poly was 266 with tax for garden view. We are going June 10-18.

 

[princessvacg]

I received a postcard, but I called a few days before and the pin was already under my name. I got the AK for 8 nights June/July for 124.00 a night. Good rate for me since I have to book 2 rooms. I have 3 teenage girls going. One bathroom will not do it!!!

I will be the old redhead chasing DS6. I am also staying at VWL for 2 nights in a Studio. I rented points from a nice DVC member. I have deceided this would NOT be a comando style vacation. I will be wearing my Green Dis Ribbon. Hope to say Hi.

Dreaming did you call back? I received the same post card, they are good for all levels of hotels. If the CM says no hang up and call back. You may be able to apply the code to your current ressie if they have availability at the AKL. Good luck.
