Spring Direct Incentives 2/9-4/27

[Steelers0854]

I need to do a thread about this because when you create a rental store account it only let's you put one name and thats the name they sent our tax form too and its incorrect because we file together and I didnt like that. Maybe I did something wrong.

You didnt do anything wrong, 10-99’s only go to 1 person, they dont get issued to more than 1 SSN.

For those rewriting their contracts to take the new incentives, did you have to sign a document allowing them to rewrite the contract and then get an entirely new contract to sign?
We just got an "authorization to rewrite or modify purchase agreement". How long did it take for you to get the new contract after that?

Yes I did have to do that and I got the new one the same day after I signed that.

I really hope what happened to me doesnt happen to you.

Although both departments are telling me my reservations are perfectly safe, quality assurance is telling me members service is responsible for this and all questions need to be directed at them and now ms is telling me that quality assurance or members admin is responsible for this ill continue posting in my other thread

Okay thank you. Turbotax was telling me to ask the rental store to reissue it to both of us because now it looks like im the only one responsible and thats incorrect so yeah something I didnt really want to deal with.

Are you filling jointly? If so I’m not sure it would matter then.

Seperately, remind me not to sell my points again, when you see another post of me in distress of what to do, I regret it

Amazing! I'm old!

I knew the name was familiar but also had to google. But I'm just a young gal in her 40s.

I got an email that said "Additional Action Required" but I honestly have already forgotten what that one was. But I remember it was short. And I signed it.

Then, an hour later, I got the longer Docusign thing to sign. It had all the new figures for what we were paying.

About 20 minutes later, I got an email saying my contract (old one) was cancelled.

The next day I got an email saying they are finalizing my contract. Points are already there. So basically just waiting for closing now.

I never got the email that the old one was cancelled which makes sense because its still on my dashboard. I did get the finalizing my contract ones tho hmm

It was honestly a bit jarring to have these two emails back to back. So I went onto the site to make sure they didn't cancel the wrong thing.

They really need to work on their communication. One of a dvc members biggest fear is the reservation cancellation notification. Imagine getting 6 of them and your waitlists are still active i thought I got hacked

Once the 2042 expires, all inventory goes back to Disney. All that needs to happen is that that Disney gives to DVD, like they did with the cabins.

They then add it into the trust as trust property.

They don’t need to sell new RTU contracts for those properties in order for them to offer for use by other DVC owners via BVTC.

Basically, those rooms, once they revert back, can immediately come back online for cash and DVC bookings if that is what they want to do.

They are not going to be faced with the resorts that somehow can’t be used.

ETA: What I mean by a fee is that at 7 months current DVC owners would be allowed to access those resorts as an exchange, and BVTC would charge a per reservation fee to access.

I’m starting to understand what you’re trying to explain:

1) Yes the points at expired DVC resorts can the just be sold by Disney as regular hotel inventory. That’s probably the biggest factor to availability going down in the short term (assuming demand is there).

2) Yes they could just roll the points into the trust and allow members of the trust to access them. But that doesn’t change the fact that the contract owners of those original resorts that just expired all just got wiped out.

3) Having a glut of points for non expiring direct owners to use isn’t the same as having a sold out membership of those points. There will be way more DVC points to go around vis a vis direct members whose contracts are still active than needed. That’s just math. That won’t really change until they sell all of those points that just flooded their system.

Yes! SAME! I saw "your contract has been cancelled" and although I knew they would need to do that for the old incentives, it was still a little heart stopping for a second. Especially when you read the email and it says "We regret to inform you that your contract has been cancelled.... We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause." For a second, it sounded bad!

My husband popped over to Yacht Club since our DoorDash driver ended up there rather than Beach Club. He came back to me at SAB and said "wow, that place is nice, it isnt DVC?" This is after Beach Club didnt wow him at all.

Vibes-wise, YC is the adult table at Thanksgiving.

I always kind of assumed BC and YC were almost identical resorts. Interesting to hear that they are different.

Guess I should at least check it out. I think I barely stepped foot on YC property when I was checking out BC. It sounds stuffy. lol

Amazing! I'm old!

I’m with you, I know all of those shows, and loved them, including M*A*S*H. !!

I would love to see a resort with direct access into MK added to DVC so perhaps overly optimistic lol.

It makes sense from a traffic perspective to handle the local growth over the last decade.

I wonder though, this is only the best route for MK coming from the north. Seems WDW is always moving routes around to more precisely control where and how it flows. Would they go through this much effort just for the increase of north locals going to one park? This isn’t really the best route for the other 3 parks for the majority of them.

This is a major re-route.

My overly optimistic side thinks it would’ve been impossible to add another resort without it, while they could’ve done something less severe to handle increased local traffic coming from the north to MK.

Oh I absolutely agree that this was routed not the cheapest / shortest way but in a way to best preserve the future money earning potential of the land on the MK side of Floridian Way.

We already got that impression five years ago, and it always could have been future-proofing without concrete plans. But with Villains Land being officially announced, it feels inevitable that there will be a resort (with DVC?) added next to it.
