Unbelievable Rate for Feb. 07

[saffymom]

I found back when the thread started, but waited to talk to DH first. He told me to add a day to our trip, and now the deal is gone! Oh well. I wasn't too excited about packing up the kids and switching resorts anyway, but was willing to do it for such a great price.

Oh geez,

Garden Suite, Boardwalk for 207.00 a night including 1 day tickets..

I was getting 2 adults, 2 kids, 4 passes for $290.

Also was getting 2 adults, 2 passes for $145.

Oh well. Snooze I looze.

By the way, wonder where the original person on this topic heard about this first? And how does the OP feel that their thread totally changed faces from their original point?

I got 1 night/2 Adults/1 day tickets for $145/night

I booked nov25, 26, 27 07. But I needed a week. I couldn't get the rest of my dates. Those dates should be open now if you hurry! Hope it works for you. It didn't for me. I'm so bummed out. I never did get a PM from anyone. I think thats rotten.

I PM'd a quite a few people, but it's hard to PM pages of people when I couldn't access the site at times as it was running slow (probably due to the amnt of people looking at this deal)

I am not quite sure what the savenger hunt was all about... Why wasn't it posted what resort... It was a little ridiculous to make people hunt for it...

Just curious, did you PM anyone yourself? Those wanting the info greatly outnumbered those who had the info. I PM'd a few people & was able to get the info. But I didn't expect them to PM me & everyone who requested the info in posts. It's a huge 15-page thread. That would have taken forever for the few who knew the details. As far as not posting the info straight-up on the board, I don't know their reasons for not doing so. I don't really buy the "it's a fun game" thing by trying to figure it out. But anyway. Back to the drawing board for some more deals.

Well... I ended up booking after all. Went to Deb's and found out what a "garden suite" was. OMG. I was able to get the first 3 of out 6 night stay before it was GONE. I am still a bit worried about packing up every day (if it comes to that) but once I saw the pics of the suites I just couldn't pass it up!

 

[kaitlin-n-mom]

I got it! But boy did I mess it up. I guess I was just to excited. I got Jan 21, 22, 23, 24, 26th. I missed the 25th and I have two reservations for the 23rd. I will probably cancel the extra 23rd and the 26th and move to a value. I want to thank the OP. There is no way in the world I could ever afford a stay at the BW. Now I just pray WDW will honor it.

Thanks a bunch

And why the thread for the "special deal" with no details? I can see these DISers never being told about "special deals" fromt the ones they kept the information from.

Thanks anyway. I'm just jealous. that was an awesome deal and I missed out. I hope someone can use my cancelation dates. And I want to know who gets them so I can come over and hang out in their suite!!!!!!!!! ( then I'll drag my sorry *** back to my moderate resort!)

If you read the fine print in the confirmation, it states:

"Walt Disney Travel Co., Inc. reserves the right to decline, accept, or retain any guests as a participant in these packages at any time. If a package is cancelled by Walt Disney Travel Co., Inc., Walt Disney Travel Co., Inc. shall have no responsibility beyond the refund of all monies paid..."

But maybe Disney will throw a little pixie dust our way!

No, There was no point. By the time I finally figured it out, tried to book, It was gone and I couldn't finish.

I missed a day too (what a greedy piggie I am LOL).

Tried to book @ AAA or rack w/o success, rooms have been pulled from the system.

CRO said it was a matter of "incorrect rates" & that letters will be sent out informing guests of same & the correct amount they need to pay to be able to utilize the res.

I asked if they were going to honor my rate as paid in full & was told no, since it was a mistake.

When I asked if the pkg could be linked, I was told "...there was no need to...", CM was frustrated & so was I.

I've got my emails & res. info from site printed out...wonder if they'll do me any good.

Who's going first, make sure you post.

 

[welovedis]

I also curious why no one was willing to post the info here, just veiled info. For some who are newbies, it wasn't apparent and they feel cheated or just plain think what was done was mean. If some of you were willing to send out PMs why not just post the info on the boards. It wasn't as if you were using a special rate code or something?

And, for the record, I'm not posting this out of jealousy, 4 trips in 2006 is all we can afford right now and my APs expire on 1/6 so there wasn't any personal interest in for me. I got curious as to why the thread grew so fast & clicked on the last few pages.

 

[Tracy Savage]

Well it did sound to good to be true.......I was sooo excited!!!! now I'm sooo sad.......

Oh well, we tried. I wonder how long it will take before they notify us?? It was worth a shot anyway.

The only cheating going on was from those who were trying to take advantage of a glitch in the system. There was no special rate, no special discount, just a glitch in the system. If you tried to book a single room for a single night at the boardwalk, there was an option to choose a garden suite room and instead of it being +$600/night for the upgraded suite it was -$600.

 

[toocooltobeMom]

I have managed to book for 2 1-nighters in August 07 before the the room disappeared. Like the OP, I tried to get in extra nights, it's no longer valid. Oh, well, 2 nights are better than nothing at all.
Who ever is going the earliest with this ridiculously low rate, please keep us all inform.
By the way, I have already paid in FULL (since the ressie system appears to be able to process the ressies only if you choose to pay in full)
Has anyone stay there before? What is include with the room? food and drinks? Sure will appreciate your inputs.

Interestingly enough, the CM said they won't be refunding CC pmts, just sending out the letters. Guess written confirmations aren't all they're cracked up to me - saw no general disclaimers on site as to "mistakes".

Hate to pay interest on the individual nights charges if they're not going to honor the rate. More disturbing, since it's a pkg must be cancelled 45 days prior to avoid penalties....hmmm.

Ok you DIS lawyers - want to chime in here?
