I'm thinking ahead to Lakeshore Lodge and purchasing a small-point contract, Point Chart pending. This would be my first Direct purchase, holding a handful of small-point resale contracts to date.

Anyway, I understand that I won't be able to take advantage of any incentives with the (small, 50 - 60) contract I'd purchase, but unlike resale, will this transaction be taken care of on the same day, in a matter of hours?

Can I use my credit card with Disney to make this purchase and if so, how much will they allow me to charge?


Lastly, all my contracts being the same Use Year, I'll be able to choose which UY I want, no problems, yes?

To get a different UY, you would have to purchase whatever the current new member minimum point requirement is. Different UYs would also result in a new membership number.

To get only 50 - 60 points, they would have to have the same UY as an exiting contract.

Great - that's what I would want. Thanks!

You'll likely have your points before you get off the phone.

Yes you can use your credit card to make this purchase and you can pay for the entire balance with it.

They absolutely will match your current use year.

Well I don’t think it’s that fast but typically by the end of the day.

All answers I wanted to hear - awesome! Thank you!
 
I would assume that the minimum add on will be set at 50 points, since that seems to be what they have done for new resorts since CCV.
