Anyone able to quote the average time for Disney to create a new account? I have an account but this last resale has a different use year. This is affecting a reservation for July and one next year. It's been 2.5 weeks since docs were sent to DVD.

And for those keeping score my sellers STILL HAVE NOT DEIGNED TO SIGN my second contract all but assuring throwing away those 520 July points.

Affecting your existing reservation how?

 

[ILoveMyDVC]

I just wrote my agent and requested my 14K deposit back if they cannot get a written committment from the seller for when they deign to sign the documents. Since I am going to miss the July points and miss using them for my May (2022) reservation, I might as well start over with pursuing a new contract that has committed sellers.

 

[ILoveMyDVC]

Not sure what you mean. I was hoing to add days to my July reservation but, more importantly, I am trying to secure a GV in May and needed those points.

You will lose your deposit if the closing date has not passed. You of course can ask to change the terms of the contract you signed but the seller would have to agree if you were to not lose the deposit. I believe you already lost a deposit on an SSR contract that you had committed to and then changed your mind? Yes, you may not be able to use the points but really that was always going to be iffy. I suggest not compounding that loss by losing a deposit and starting all over again. And definitely don't go thru this all again by starting over.

I think I misunderstood your post. You were hoping to use these points to alter a July reservation but you no longer can, right? I thought you meant having a different UY somehow affected an existing reservation

 

[Lee Matthews]

If I have 2 different resale contracts with different use years they still both appear under one DVC login doesn’t it? Just listed with different membership numbers or will have 2 completely different log ins?

Same login and there will be a drop down box for you to select which UY you use to book.

IT certainly got everyone's attention. The sellers are going to sign and send today. The title company shouldn't have put the July 5th. closing date on the documents without an explanation to the sellers. Yes, I changed my mind about SSR and I paid 2K for it, it doesn't make me defective - it was a mistake with consequences. The July points was iffy but that wasn't what was told to me over and over again by the resale agent. I certainly didn't think my May 2022 reservation would be compromised. I'm still waiting for Disney to give me my paid for points from my first contract. Such BS and a lousy opaque way to do business. I've put up thousands of dollars for nothing in return and no promise of when I might have use of the product. Just vague inconsistent timelines without any means of checking other than an email address that auto generates the 'promise' of a 10 business day reply.

So sorry about all the frustration. Its worth noting that Disney, unfortunately, has incentive to make the resale process FRUSTRATING for people - they want to drive people to direct purchases and really have little incentive to prioritize facilitating resale. My understanding is that no one can really push Disney to move any faster and based on my research the key to navigating resale is patience, patience, patience and the ultimate benefit is $$$$$ saved. Best of luck!

[ICEMAN3205]

That's a big difference. I'd walk away too!

After thinking all week I did cancel the contract. So back to the beginning, I’m thinking it was a sign to not buy at AKV. If anyone is looking there’s a new 180pt contract out there now.

Pretty much bang on 3 weeks to pass like I've been seeing elsewhere on this thread. Any idea how long estoppel is taking now?

Congratulations neighbor!

25 days since passing ROFR, still no estoppel
