Premiere Passport Vouchers?

[gmi3804]

I'm interested in the DVC AP promotion going on through April. Can I not buy a Premiere Passport voucher before the promotion ends, to be activated before 1/31/15? I just called MS and was told the activation of vouchers before 1/31/15 is only valid for Premium APs.

Has anyone heard differently? Seems to me the only (or best) way one can take advantage of the Premiere offer is if you don't already have an AP. My AP will expire shortly after my trip next week, and I don't want to activate the new promotional AP until my October trip. Sounds like I'm SOL if I want a Premiere PP.

It appears the only way to buy a Premier voucher is in person. No phone or online options.

That's what I was afraid of. Seems like you can't take advantage of the Premiere Passport unless you're in person and want it to be activated that day. Sucks.

In person yes, but if you happen to be there in person they can sell you a voucher which can be activated later.

MS told me that I could buy a Premium AP voucher in person, but not a Premiere Pass voucher, either in person or over the phone.

In any event, I'll be there tomorrow, so I'll find out soon enough.

After many phone calls we found out you can not get a voucher with a jan 2015 date the only voucher you would get would be back to your original exp date if you current have a premier...either way you must be in person. I highly recommend asking for they premier pass to be treated as just another annual pass with same purchasing options. The more folks providing this feedback will encourage MS to make changes for the next promo...

I know someone who has a voucher bought at
DL a few weeks ago. So they exist no guarantee your CM will know about them

Since MS has no control over how Disney sells tickets the only change they could make would be to refuse to offer something

Since the promo/perk is for DVC only, it would appear that they have the power to control the offering/terms.

And they can refuse to offer it. Disney does not sell the Premier pass over the phone or online to anyone. So unless Disney changed the ticket option DVC will not be able to give it to you

Was able to purchase a Premier certificate at DL today. The expiration is for 12/31/14 not 1/31/15. No one seems to be aware of the DVC website and what it says. The Dec 2014 start date works for me so I bought them.

 

[gmi3804]

Good news. I was able to purchase the Premiere Passport voucher this morning at WDW Guest Services. The CM even was able to apply an unused 2-day park ticket (worth $195) that I had from last October, and then I paid the balance with GCs purchased from Target at 5% off. The voucher is now linked to my MDE and ready to be activated on my October trip.

I am probably going to purchase one at DL and try to activate it at WDW. Should be an adventure .

Make sure you tell them that, because the CM who assisted me made a point of asking me where I was going to activate it. You can do that, but they need to set it up in their system as such.

Thanks for the warning

Are there any creative options on getting a Premier Passport if you cannot purchase in person before the end of April? I don't understand why they don't allow a pre-purchase voucher for this??

I have to say there is a lot of confusions over the Premier Pass. I have called into MS numerous times for information and do not get the same answer twice.

When down to DL yesterday to purchased the Premier Pass for our trip in September to WDW. We did receive a voucher which is good until 12/31/2014. The cast member suggested we activate them at DL due to the fact that the DL and WDW are not on the same system. The price was different than what member services said. They told me it would be $908. It was $876.60. Not that I am complaining about that

Hoping for no complications when we activate them, especially with the Magic Bands at WDW and doing pre booking of the fast passes.

May I ask a question - is this for new premier passes or are you "renewing" we were told by MS that first there were no vouchers (hmm) and then that if we did get one they would only active our current premier passes to their exp date which is this April - example when we go in Oct "if" we had a voucher we could use it but it would not have a one year from Oct date it would go back to one year from April - is this how it was explained to you? SO much confusion on these premier passes and its really not that hard to just make them match other AP options...its is just another AP. Thanks

That is what I am wondering. We wanted to get a Premiere to be activated in Dec but I have to do that in person? Is that true?

We currently have no AP (expired last Sept) so where do I fit in?
