Support group for us no pin people!?

[dizneedoll]

Well nuthin' all day. Again.

I rebelled today too and deleted all my itins' and saved offers' after I got that "explore your resort" email. I'm gonna go try that ticket only pricing thing that jdd suggested. Can't hurt except to crush my hopes even further if I still don't get one. I have an excel spreadsheet with all my profile usernames and passwords since I can't remember them all anymore. This is addicition at it's worst.

Hi, I use the same password for all my Disney accounts. It makes things go much faster.

Hey I have a big chart too! Serious.

It includes the email address, the date I signed it up, what I saved and how many itineraries, passwords are all the same, and all emails are on the iphone for speed of checking... ummm... I think thats it!

But alas, another day another downer.

I need support group help! My pin-envy levels have spiked!

Here's the story. DSis is largely responsible for my current bout of gotta-get-back-to-WDW mission, after she suggested a short trip with Mom & exchange-DB right after school lets out (not that I didn't already want to go, oh, yes. )

Mom: probable yes, but had to verify a schedule item that may delay us one day.
DSis's schedule and other things interfere with the following weeks. So there's a limited window of opportunity here.

I wait, price, think, look, read here, create iteneraries, etc.. Finally today, I call about pins.
Nope. None in my name (of course). Mom's the sort who could easily toss out "junk mail", so the nice reservations lady checks her name too. Nothing.
But DSis? Yep! She's got free QSDP (I don't think she even noticed, since she was interested in reg DP). Woo hoo!

I got a temp hold on our dates with the DP upgrade. It's all workable,even if we need to shift by a day.
DSis is interested but has to check on things. DMom thinks it's going to work out.

Then DSis calls back. Seems DBiL forgot to mention an international trip that interferes with her side of the family's plans. Mom would be interested in still going, but, um, Mom, this is DSis's code. Nope. Won't work. Fat chance! So now, having an actual linked reservation "on hold" until tomorrow, I kind of think I'm off the elusive pin list for good.
On the bright side, if we can get this motley crew of ours to coordinate dates, maybe we can work something out later with DSis's pin. And my kid would love being with cousins at the park. There's still hope, so I can still Disney-obsess, right? But wouldn't it just be easier for Disney to just send me the codes in the future?

 

[Good Morning Dewdrop]

I'll tell you what you guys are livesavers!

Whenever I feel like I've gone overboard obsessing about getting a pin, playing 'games' with the Disney website and my various e-mail addresses, trying everything under the sun and getting no-where...I come here to this wonderful thread and realize that not only am I not alone - I'm not even THE most obsessed one out there!!!

How cool is that?!

 

[mollymar]

Congrats to those who have gotten pins!!

Me? I'm still here and pinless

I'm going to try the tickets thing tomorrow. Keeping my fingers crossed for everyone.

 

[JenniJ]

Thnkaing of calling tomorrow to see if I got a PIn or if my DH got one. Heck... maybe my DD of 16 yrs has one. Or maybe even my DS who is 2?? Seams like Disney likes to throw the PINs everyone .....

But us PINless DISers in this support group.

btw, should I just call and give them the names of everyone in my house?

 

[FunkyDuck]

I'm joining the thread...Hello, my name is FunkyDuck & I'm Pinless...

Why? I don't understand...What have I done for WDW to turn its back on me? I tried to be neat in our room, I threw our trash in the proper receptacles, I didn't get carsick on the busses...what? What could it be...please tell me!!!! lololololol....DISNEEEEEEEYYYYYYYYYYY!!!!

If I don't receive a pin soon....please hand me my "give myself a hug" jacket, face me to the corner...where I will drop to the fetal position, suck my thumb and rock myself to sleep!!! LOLOLOLOL

 

[BecBennett]

Anyone else having problems with the website at the moment? How am I supposed to get a pin if the page wont work for me!?!?!

 

[jgallant]

Good Luck to Everyone. Be sure to post your 'pin winnings' here today, we need all the hope we can get!

10 days and counting since creating my first 'extra' profile....

Anyhow, I am going to keep busy today doing my own thing...
and none of this
so that I can try not to end up with another
to all!

 

[wishing4PA]

I threw our trash in the proper receptacles, I didn't get carsick on the busses...

Yes! Trash in the proper receptacles!
FunkyDuck, you more than deserve a pin code!

Maybe we could get a group rate for the Pinless Support Group? I'm starting to think that's the way to go.
Hello, Disney? We would like to book a large convention ...

 

[JenniJ]

Everyone in this thread.....
Please call Disney and see if you have a PIN code. It is SO worth it.

I never received ANYTHING! Mail or email, but low and behold..... I called and I had the 20/30/40 under my name!

I will be staying above value for our familymoon. YAH! Hopefully I can tweek our budget to stay at the AKL!

Thank you everyone for all their advice!

Good luck to all who have not yet received a PIN.

Hello. My name is Shannon and I am pinless.

My story begins last year. While Disney was doing the "Get in free on your Birthday" promo I signed up my best friend under my email address so we could plan a trip for her birthday. We never went, but she was still connected to my email in Disney files. So last week I log in to check my mail and what do I find? A pin in her name for FQSD expiring August 14. That's when my obsession began. I know have six (6) emails and itineraries set up with the Disney site in hopes of getting some kind of pin for after August. One in my DH's name, one in our roommate's name, and four in my name. Today I may set up another one in my bff's name to see if one will come under her name. And I'm about to call and see if there is one attached to my name. This is what has become of my life.

 

[jgallant]

So I THOUGHT I was going to neglect Disney today, but... here I am!
I called last night to check for the people we are traveling with, nothin'.
I hate calling but I think I am getting to the point that I don't care anymore.
I tried using the chat option, but they said they can't tell me if I have anything on line I have to call. Now I am a bit to call, I am not sure WHICH email address to reveal?!!! I should ask them which one THEY have! Or give them two?
Good thing we get a different CM each time, it will be REALLY freaky if we start to get the same ones a second or third time around, and become on a first name basis relationship!

Oh well, maybe I will just call again, what do I/THEY care...

My addiction runs deep, I went to work to check my emails there twice in the evenings when I was supposed to be off at home! (( Last night at 7:00 )) and (( Thursday night at 8:00 ))

Yupper - I need some serious head help!

WHat Disney Number did you call?
I know there are several, do you think this matters?
I think soon I will get transferred to a supervisor...

Uhhh... Errr....

"Mrs. ____________.
You have NO PIN OFFERS, you will have to stop harassing our call center, we have work to do and vacations to plan for good paying guests.
Check the web site, and keep your information up to date on a regular basis.
Check your junk mail, Disney Destinations mail usually tends to go there..."

BLAH BLAH BLAH... heard ALL the excuses....

Oh yeah and "... the only promotions out right now go to August 14th ... we do not have any more information than that..."

Have a magical Day....

Heres my thing when I call:

First time I called to get rates, etc - I did all that automated thing and the system seemed to find me - had my email address and everything.

Well I have reservations and everytime I have called since the automated information seems to find me but they tell me my name isn't on the account - my husband, and 2 daughters come up but not me.

This last time I called I used my old address. (I had changed one of my newer accounts to an old address hoping that would help). Well the "system" (automated) found me but the girl on the phone said it didn't find me, it just set up a new acct or something. They never did find me with that email.

So I have been told that everything is per household not per email address and they can't look you up by email address just address...

I don't get how some people report that they looked up themselves and their DH, etc. It just doesn't seem to work for me.

 

[JoShan1719]

So I just called...Nothin'. Guess I'll just have to keep waiting

 

[wishing4PA]

So I have been told that everything is per household not per email address and they can't look you up by email address just address...

When I called, all I was asked for was my name and zip code. Granted, our zip code doesn't have a lot of residents, if that matters... I do think I confirmed the street with the CM.
Then I gave my Mom's last name (which she already figured out based on my maiden name) and zip.
Then my sister's last name and zip.
I only needed email addresses when it came time to confirm our hold (the one that we are going to lose because of DBiL's forgotten trip). I am SO ready to go to WDW. Maybe I can arrange another volcano to interfere with DBiL's trip so the rest of us can go to Disney!
Um, sorry for those of you who have been affected by the Iceland volcano. What a horrible situation.
