Stupid question from a newbie…Maybe?

Hi everyone
I’ve closed on our first DVC resale contract and my question is this…is the DVC sign on linked to My Disney Experience? The email I used for my DVC contract is different than MDE. Does this matter? I guess I just don’t know what to expect from the DVC website and if it’s just a matter of linking a confirmation in MDE each time (which isn’t a big deal!). TIA

I think your email should be the same not sure. My emails are the same for both

Everything with Disney needs ti be the same. So, when you set up your DVC log in, if you use a different one, it might change up the others.

My DVC, WDW, DCL, Disney+ and Disney store are all one streamlined login, it very streamlined and I like it one less password combination to remember.

I had two separate email accounts for DVC and disney.com, going back to a time before MDE existed. Disney IT merged them under one email without notifying me or asking which one I preferred.

But you can change it back in about 30 seconds.

No. It really wasn't possible to "unmerge" them. The best that I could do was to change my email preference to the one that I wished to use for Disney.

That's what I meant. You can't go back to having separate emails, but you can pick the one you want to use (I was focusing on the "without notifying me or asking which one I preferred" part of your post.

Ah, I see. My irritation with not being notified came when I tried to log into my DVC account less than a week before a trip only to be locked out of it because they merged the DVC membership into the MDE and I had to log in using that email and password. Of course, I didn't find that out until I called.

I called MS about this today because my fiancé used a different e-mail than his MDE account. They asked him to verify his information and asked which e-mail he preferred. It took a could of minutes, but then he was able to log into the DVC website, verify with a few codes which we received from MS and now everything is under one e-mail.
