I had no idea there were points from '23. And it's a good thing because we just set up our account yesterday and points were loaded this morning. It was hard enough to wait for that. If I had known there were full points that were going to expire at the end of the month, I would've been beside myself. It was the best surprise!!!
It's like winning the resale lottery!
That is when people buy an AUL contract sold and priced as unsubsidized and find out upon transfer than it is subsidized.
Your getting pixie dusted already! I think it is amazing that MS would bank last years points, and was this after the deadline? What great service from the Mouse. Does this happen often when resale contracts or is it more of a case by case basis?
that would be amazing
We have an August UY. Our banking deadline is by Apr 1. When we purchased the contract it was listed as 0 points in UY'23. We are new members, this is our first (of two) contracts. I think MS realizes I couldn't have done anything and makes an exception to bank the points. It was definitely a surprise!
I purchased a CCV contract last summer that was listed as stripped. When the points loaded two weeks before our UY, we had almost two years of points that were about to expire (surprise!). I made my first call to MS just to ask what my options were for these points - I didn't even think to ask for a one-time exception to extend the banking deadline. The amazing cast member offered to bank a full year of points, a few days before the new UY.
Congrats! I am happy that they seem to be in July now. Ours was sent 7/7 and I am hoping because of July 4th people might not have been buying as much, so they get to the 7th quickly lol.**UPDATE**

Now I really need to stop looking at more contracts......for now
This is fascinating and sad to me. I closed two VGC contracts through TRCS in the last month and got from ROFR returned to closed/recorded in about a week. Currently waiting on Disney.
Started this process 05/28. Maybe she singled me out and is moving slow on purpose. Her attitude towards me actually makes me think it’s a possibility.
DVC TE Is automatic must have title insurance.Could you two (or anyone) help me understand title insurance?I will *hopefully* close next month on the BLT contract I posted a week ago. DVC Title & Escrow Is handling the closing. I honestly thought I had handled and knew all of my costs. Eek…what other costs will pop up at closing? I am pretty confident my seller purchased direct from Disney.
I 100% agree with Jimmy's summary on this topic. I just advised a friend on this, they are buying an Aulani contract that there is no rush as no expiring points anytime soon, the seller bought direct from Disney, no brainer use TRCS and save yourself the money. On the if buying from folks that already resale, that is to each their own. I dont buy the additional insurance, when I rent a car. I dont buy the insurance when I book a vacation. I do have homeowners and car insurance since that is required by the banks that are holding the loans. Disney checks all the dues, so I feel pretty good that there are no issures.. If the contract you are buying is on loan with Monera/Vacation Club even better, they are checking everything as well, but even if your seller bought the contract cash in order for a company to have claim/lien, they're gonna have to have the notarized paperwork filed.

Every pending buyer just sent an email titled 2023 points—lol.
Wahoo! Waiting on mine at the same ppp.
I have the same exact contract pending, 160pts, 118, sent 7/15. Guess you gave me good news.
Seems like it! Fingers crossed yours comes a bit sooner.
