Saying "no charging privileges doesn't always work...

[ScottOKW2K]

I think the moral of this story is to always get receipts for your purchases - cash or charge.

I know that on my last trip we did two e-ticket purchases on the same day. My daughter decided she wanted to do e-ride night instead of staying in the room. One purchase was charged ( two tickets for my wife and I ) and the later purchase was paid by cash ( my daughter's ticket ). In both cases I was given a receipt for the purchase. On my bill at checkout I only saw what I expected to see - the charge purchases that I had made during that stay. There weren't many , as most of the smaller purchases during the stay were cash transactions.

Personally I would not have walked away from a purchase without a receipt that I have reviewed to make sure it is correct. A dishonest cast member can only take advantage of those opportunities that exist. Simply waiting for the receipt would have given you the proof that your side of the story was correct.

Didn't Reagan say it best : "Trust, but Verify !"

I went on points. No phone calls, extra towels, etc. The only thing I thought was odd was that she said just leave. They didn't have a credit card and there wasn't a bill/express check-out paper either. How does express check-out work? In future stays do I "just leave" or is there some sort of check out process? It could have to do with the fact that it was the Thurs. before Frances hit.
Thanks for your replies

You just leave. However, on my last visit to OKW, I saw in the member packet a number to call on the room phone when you're ready to walk out the door. You just dial it and hang up. It informs housekeeping that the room is ready for servicing.

If you are not staying on points or charging you will get a bill. When you checkin you will give them your credit card info and permit them to charge to the room. You will also indicate express checkout. The day of departure you will have a bill on your door or slipped under the door. Disney will charge your credit card.
