Simple escapes--or not ??? PLEASE HELP QUICK!

[tiggers5]

I'm really trying to make a quick decision here--if anyone can help that would be great! I just recently signed up for Simple Escapes. I am planning to cancel my membership, but have to do this by August 6th. I would like to order my 6-day park hopper passes from them, but I am a little leery about it. Has anyone used passes that they have purchased from Simp. Esc.--should I order them or not? I just want to make sure that I am going to get legit. passes that will work when I go in October, becasue I would be buying ten of them--and of course I do not want to lose my $$. Any help is appreciated! Thanks!!

Simple Escapes is not bad, they are like Connections, Hotwire. One way to reduce your fee should you decide to keep it for a year is when you call to tell them your are going to cancel they will offer you some rebate vouchers for expenses like groceries, utilities, etc. Take advantage of it.
They do offer some good gift cards that we used often.

Thanks for your advice!! Should I buy the passes then? I really need to make a decision quickly!

they do have a good rate on the passes but you might also want to consider paramount who offeres a free DisneyQuest admission with 6 and 7 day park hoppers. You do have one flat shipping rate of $15 but /6 comes out to $2.50 per person and even a discount DQ admission is $25.

My only advice would be...use your American Express card to purchase through Simple Escapes. That way, if there is a problem, American Express will back you up and refund your money if they're not what they propose to be. Good luck!!

Our friends used them a year ago, three adult and one child pass, all worked excellent. Hope this helps.

Thanks so much for your help! I still haven't made a decision yet--but if anyone else has used the passes successfully I would love to hear how it went!

haven't ordered passes thru them, but have ordered lotsa WDW food vouchers and about $500 in gift cards from simply yours (simple escapes).
shipping was fast (rec'd within a week) & free, and orders were exactly as they were supposed to be (i checked the GC balances to ensure they were the correct amt, and the rebates were always applied).
my (& many other's) experience ~ they're legit.
