Using UK debit cards for dvc bookings?

[Sid74]

Hi,

I want to use my points to make a booking for Disneyland Paris. I know that I have to pay for my park passes and resort booking fee when I speak to MS. Do I have to pay by credit card?

I would like to use my Maestro card (UK debit card), is this possible?

Thanks.

I was wondering the exact same thing!

Maestro is a major worldwide debit card (like Visa or Mastercard) except the money comes right out of your bank account immediately. Does anybody know why Disney doesn't accept them?

Pretty certain that when I booked for DLRP with my UK debit card at the beginning of the year, it all went through fine. In fact I'm 99% certain that's how I paid for my passes etc.

Tinkerbell 766, can I just ask if you used a visa debit or a maestro debit?

I believe that visa debit is classed as the same as a credit card, so that might explain why they are accepted, but if you used a maestro card then there may be hope for me yet!

Thanks.

how did you get on ????

jns, I haven't tried booking yet as I don't want to get through the booking and find they won't take my card, so I was hoping to get an answer from these boards before I tried.
