Those with pins... how long did it take?

How long were you trying for a pin?

I just got a pin code today after creating an account with my info under my boyfriend's e-mail address late last wk and saved a ton of $$ from my original reservation at AKL for October.

I knew nothing about these pin codes till last week. I created an account over a month ago and had saved some offers, got a welcome email. Then I discovered these pin codes and followed the advise to create an itinerary and so I did that and the next day got a free dining code (which I can't use) and yesterday got the 20/30/40 code. I did not put a resort choice on the itinerary, just my daily park schedule plan.

I was doing everything to get a PIN code. Multiple account, saving and deleting itineraries, etc. Finally I called to see if I had any discounts attached to my name. And behold! I did, the 20/30/40 discount. Then magically a few hours later I get an email with the the PIN!
I would LOVE to get the FD though. It would be a better deal for us. Sooooo, I'm back to messing around on the Disney website!

Thank goodness but I've never had a problem receiving pin codes. Actually I received 2 in one week a couple of weeks ago. I just called this morning to change the dates of my next trip and the CM just informed me that I have several PIN's associated with my account and she checked which one worked best for my dates etc.

I called to ask a few questions about the reservation and while I had the CM on the phone I asked if there were any discounts attached to mine or my husband's name and there aren't after all I have done!

Same here...I tried that last night. No pins for us....

Where are you creating an account on with your email address, on the Disney website?

Is it best to call directly to see if there are any attached to my name?

I wasn't trying when I got two.

About a year ago I wrote (and mailed) a lengthy complaint letter to Meg Crofton, and cc'd it to Al Weiss (President of Disney Parks), George Kalogridis (Disneyland Resort President), and Bob Iger himself. I think I got a pin through my email, and I promptly replied that I was not interested.

A few weeks ago I got another pin by mail for the Disneyland resorts, and again I wasn't trying. This week I just sent off some more complaint letters explaining to Meg Crofton and George Kalogridis just why I will not "be their guest" for the forseeable future.

Where is the option for a couple of years? We did finally get one though, and it ended up costing us more money to use it
