ROFR Thread April to June 2021 *PLEASE SEE FIRST POST FOR INSTRUCTIONS & FORMATTING TOOL*

Has anyone used their Costco Citi credit card? How would the DVC purchase track for % back?

1% cat. Not traveling.

I’m also planning on taking advantage of the 6 month no interest. I’ve been confirmed numerous times by my DVC guide and Chase customer service on this matter. I hope there’s no”glitch”. Lol

Yes, the DVC guide said not to worry about it but Disney Visa knew all about the glitch! You may want to call Disney Visa to confirm if they're still having an issue and let them know you're purchasing DVC and using the card.
It's been frustrating because it was hundreds of dollars in interest and they keep sending letters/emails that they know all about the glitch and are working on it, but it hasn't been resolved yet!

I’m seeing a lot of contracts from mid-May passing ROFR so far between Friday and now. I’m getting antsy because this should likely be the week I hear if the SSR submitted on 5/26 is taken. Do people usually hear about contracts being taken on a certain day of the week or is it just a rolling basis?

Could be any time however I think several 5/18 passed yesterday. I'm hoping my 5/19 is today.

Ugh! I could pay it off but I think just to take advantage of the 0 interest. I’d just pay it to save the headache I guess.

Unless they changed it from last year when I asked about a 25-point add-on at CCV, it’s both RIV and CCV that require a 50-point minimum add-on.

That one too.

I am not aware of the glitch for my transactions (I bought 2 direct contracts within a short time frame) and I know it just needs to be coded differently to get the 6 month interest free. Also it maxes out at 10k so the guide did multiple transactions on different days to apply the full amount. Glad it went smoothly for me and I hope it does for you too! 6 month creeps up pretty quickly though but it was nice to not tie up the cash for a while.

Yeah, they only will charge up to $10k on each day.

My first payment was a $7500 deposit and that showed up interest free, but then the rest of my payments did not. As soon as I contacted Disney Visa, they said "oh we KNOW- that's a problem." So frustrating. This was in January/February.

Do I have to call Chase? I had to do multiple transactions also but just want to pay the last $9000 @$1500/mo.

Oh weird! Was the transaction listed as DVC Escrow payments still? I just checked mine since I bought my second one in January and looks like I got lucky and didn’t get affected by the glitch. Sorry that you had to deal with that.

Hello everyone,
I am new to this forum, but wanted to post my ROFR status. Please let me know if I am doing it correctly or not.
Eagerly waiting:

I never called Chase. DVC guide took care of it all so it felt like it was all automatic? I guess if there is a glitch then maybe Chase will have have to take care of it.

Keep in mind, if you're using the card for other purchases, you can give them money and expect it to go towards the DVC balance. That's kind of the pain part. They apply you're money first to the charges from the last statement, THEN to any charges you made SINCE the last statement, and then start to chip at the interest free balance.

I'm someone who pays off my balance every month, but having to pay the last statement PLUS the current charges meant spending a whole bunch more upfront in order to start paying down the DVC. That's part of why we paid off the whole thing early.

I am like you, I pay everything every month. I do not owe credit card anything. I will make sure I don't use the Disney Visa for anything else. I have 3 resales in ROFR and if they pass I would need cash for those contracts first because I am not financing.

Mine was sent 5/26 so almost two weeks on my end. I’m also hoping that no news is good news!

ROFR has been coming back at 21 days about 90% of the time over the last couple of months (I know, I was watching LOL). 22 days here and there. I think it’s mostly to do with when the paperwork actually gets sent over.

Is that 21 days for those that pass ROFR? I recall someone saying it was about two weeks or so for those that get taken in ROFR.
