Thank you for ALL you do. Last year I was doing research on DVC and found your videos on YouTube. Now after purchasing a DVC contract I still keep up with you! I have 1 issue I would love to know your thoughts. When speaking directly to a DVC Rep at Disney (and I have her name) she said buying DVC would lock in today’s rate for the room for the rest of my contract. I then asked her the question: What if Disney just moves points out of the season I go and puts it all into more expensive categories isnt that the same thing as a rate hike? Her Response- “What you are talking about is underhanded and un-ethical. And DISNEY is NONE of that”. -” Each year the category points stay the same and the amount of days in each category can only fluctuate a day or so depending on when a Holiday Hits”. She said it with such confidence.
So I based my points on that response I really did… (180points Bay Lake Tower/ Resale) and the season I have gone every year for the past 18 years is the Adventure Season.= HAS NOW BEEN CHANGED FROM 75 DAYS down to like 20 or so. Its just not right or fair. How can they just move 2/3’s of the cheapest season to a more expensive category in 2021 and DVC members not see that as a room rate increase?? So what if the points cost the same. Its still an increase.
For me, the perk of owning DVC was not a savings in money from my math, it was the ability to book 11 months out and get what I want. Now I feel the 75 days of Rooms will fight for the 20 days left in that category. Im back into fighting for a room as a DVC member… I just feel its not fair at all… Would love to know your thoughts.
Trying to suscribe… Am on my phone so hopefully this works.
I love your channel on YouTube. Is there a way to communicate that is not public? Email, messenger, etc?
You can always email me at jenlefforge@gmail.com. Thanks for watching, Barb!
Where did you get your mini earrings, iI would like to get my wife some
They are by Aribbas brothers and you can find them on the Shop Disney website I think? I bought mine at the crystal shop on Main Street!
