Re-confirm your credit-card PS's

[melish27]

Word to the wise: Make sure to double-check any PS's that demand credit cards (eg., CRT, HDD). Today, when getting a few new PS's and canceling previous ones (had to reschedule our trip), the CM and I went over the list to make sure everything was OK. Turns out the PS I'd made for HDD two weeks ago wasn't in the system; the confirmation # I had belonged to someone else for a completely different PS; and the CM suggested I contact Guest Services in case there's a PS "floating around with your credit card on it" (meaning we could be charged $120 for not showing up for a seating I never reserved in the first place). GS was very apologetic and did find and fix the problem--a "computer glitch"--after an hour or so (including 25 minutes, mostly on hold, on the phone). But the moral is, unless and until WDW sends written confirmation of PS's you make with a credit card, you probably should confirm on your own a couple days later.

PS (pardon the pun): No, I didn't cancel CRT. But if anyone needs an 8:30 PS for the Princess Storybook breakfast for 1/8/03, it might be available.

Would this apply to the Fantasmic dinner package too ?
I booked up last week.

67 to go

I guess it would apply to any PS, but only those for which they get your credit card number would put you at financial risk. (mental risk is another thing altogether). They didn't ask for a card number for a regular dinner, did they? Did you book directly through Disney? Also, from what I understand you can only book the Fantasmic package onsite and within 7 days of the event. Maybe you booked the dinner at one of the 3 places that has the package but didn't get the package itself? I'm planning to do that--book at the Brown Derby well in advance, then show up at WDW and ask to "convert" the PS to Fantasmic.)

Fantasmic is now pre-paid and you can call now for your trip even if it's in December!

Do and search and you'll see the new policy.
