Update for Annual Passholders who booked free dining - Tickets

[Portugal1000]

I have today returned from a fantastic 18 nights at Saratoga Springs. Booked the free dining through Disney UK so had to buy the 14 day ultimate tickets. We already had annual passes so I was hoping that I would somehow be able to pay to have them extended so I could use next year. The 3 Disney people I spoke to were really helpful but unfortnatley could not extend even though I offered to pay more. What they did do though was seperate the tickets from the key to the world card so I atleast have 3 seperate tickets now which hopefully I can sell. Would have been great to extend as I would definitely have used as we visit every year. Also asked if I could pay the difference towards renewal annual passes but that was a no go aswell. One thing to be aware of. The first 2 Disney people I talked to insisted that these passes did not expire until first use and both said I could use next year. I knew this wasn't right and asked if they could call guest services to double check and sure enough, they expire on 31sy December.
