Are they still moving ppl for free that are keeping their dates and not making any changes?

I was originally booked 7/5-7/13 - they let me reschedule when I called last week without any issue.
I moved my check in to 7/18. We were at the Riviera to begin with and kept the same resort. The CM had trouble modifying it at first, but got someone to help her. Keep callingI just don't get it...we have similar dates 7/4-7/14 and they still have not contacted us, we called as recent as yesturday and they still told us nope, can't change just yet have to wait for their email. What resort were you staying at originally? Did you change your dates? What resort did you get moved to? Sorry one more question was there a price difference you have to pay if they moved you?
Have you paid your package in full yet?I'm at the mercy of my travel agent whose agency is associated with the disboards. I have been told that I can't modify for my dates July 7-14. Trying to be patient. Tuesday of next week I will be two weeks out! I wanted to shift my dates a few days to be there when all of the parks are open. But making us wait this long is making it difficult when I've already requested off work, booked flights that are not refundable and have a dog sitter scheduled.
Some have been helped and others have not. I imagine those that have been moved weren’t supposed to yet.We are to arrive 7/6-7/12 and I called yesterday and was told she couldn't make modifications for any departures after 7/11. She said more information should be available next week.![]()
I only have a small amount left to pay. I didn't pay it because I knew that the cost would be adjusted since I originally had free dining and park hopper. Now Disney is allowing resort guests to make park reservations beginning Monday. Which basically means that even though I want to shift my vacation 4 days to when parks are open, I'll miss out on the reservation system because they are telling me I can't modify.
We are in same boat! How fair is this to those who HAVE resort reservations and tickets and their stay falls on partial park closed/park open dates and can't do a darn thing about it yet
All of the reports that I have seen of this were from people who booked through a travel agency group block and it seems like all of that block is being moved to the Polynesian.edited to add that a few people are now reporting moves from BC/YC to the Poly in August. This may have something to do with the NBA situation.
As far as I know from reading is no Pop will not be open and people are being moved.Also, I’m supposed to be at pop July 23.. I figured I may be moved what do u guys think? Pop opening by then or no?
For those of you that have already been moved to a new resort- what is your arrival date?
If you had free dining before, they are giving you a discount of 35% off the room for the new resort.Oh wow, I feel like you should call back. Most people are being given concessions for cooperation on rebooking and it seems very unfair that they just moved you to a more expensive room and canceled your benefits. What are you being offered in exchange? Just a higher charge on a more expensive room seems totally unreasonable.
my guess is they already got concessions. Only $100 more total to go from pop to old key west sounds like there was a discount applied as well.
from what other people have shared, if you don’t modify your dates you might get the upgrade for free but if you’re choosing to move them (which it looks like these folks pushed back to November), then you pay the difference and they might still offer you 35% off for losing the free dining package.
I did get the 35% off the Fort Wilderness room for November. I was originally booked for June 28-July 3 at POP with the original free dining offer.
As, I stated I did move dates to November and got the 35% discount.
To date, these moves are exclusively guests booked by travel agents. The agreements and contracts between TAs and Disney are a whole other level of complicated that I doubt my brain could even comprehend at this point!That continues to appear to be the case for arrivals before the parks open. I have not seen any reports for stays that occur after the parks open.

Yes, mine was "completely canceled" as well. If no one admits to canceling it, it could have been this glitch. Hoping it works out!Thanks for the suggestion. According to my TA my reservation was completely cancelled.
Guests booked with TAs are booked exactly like guests booked without TAs. You are even booked on the same system. There really shouldn't be any difference whatsoever.To date, these moves are exclusively guests booked by travel agents.
