Official 2021 "Disney After Hours Boo Bash" Thread

Finally got through on DVC and was told since i'm renting I can't buy them at all...that I have to wait until June 15th to buy them. That today is for DVC members only?? Guess it just depends if you get lucky with which operator you get.

I don’t think that’s accurate, you just can’t buy them through dvc. You can attempt the main tix line but yikes based on reports in here.
Good luck to everyone! I didn‘t end up with any dates that worked for us because we are going around the 50th.

Think they gave you misinformation, today is for anyone with resort reservations but you'd have to call the other non dvc number.

Which phone number? I’ve called so many, I’ve lost count!

 

[SwirlTheCitrus]

Mine are linked, but not showing up-- it's been about 40 minutes. How long should it take?

I suspect that the "glitch" that led them to say that October 31 was sold out, and then announce that it actually isn't, is really just Disney seeing what the demand is and deciding to sell more tickets.

 

[McSmooth]

So your telling me if I start now. maybe by this afternoon I can make a reservation?!

Either that or by the time Space 220 opens.

 

[msuspar2003]

The 4240 number was in the email Disney Destinations sent me. Took about 100 calls but finally on hold for 25 min now.

 

[porkslap]

I have AP and called the AP line (407 939 7277) and got through at 9:00. Told the voice prompt “event tickets” and waited on hold for about 2 hours and 25 minutes. CM picked up, and I had my tickets and confirmation number in about 5 minutes.

 

[anneboleyn]

There are some truly terrifying moments on hold when the music fades, no one is speaking and I think i was disconnected...then the music comes back on.

LOL yes!! Every time it goes silent, I threaten my phone.

 

[McMonsters]

I have no idea the wait because I got through on the spanish line and it was too fast for me to translate before getting the hold music…my Spanish needs some work but at least the Disney tunes are in English!

 

[Jadyreen1282]

Either that or by the time Space 220 opens.

Giggle. That restaurant will never open. Reflection DVC will open before that. I will also say that POR will open after S2020. Giggle then cry big tears

 

[RamblingRabbit]

I didn't even get a hold time, but been here for going on 2 hours.

 

[Grasshopper2016]

On the bright side, I'm now getting some busy signals mixed in with the "call failed," "all circuits are busy," and "call cannot be completed as dialed" messages. Maybe that's a good sign. Sigh.

 

[DsneyDude1]

Is anyone able to view their tickets in MDE ?

I can't but it did say they were linked.

 

[lorilori]

Finally. I started calling shortly after 8:00ET using 407-939-1929, a number I'd written down somewhere along the way. Calls weren't going through, circuits busy, etc., etc. When I finally got placed on hold I waited another 2 hours and 46 minutes. However, Halloween wasn't available so had to choose another date. CM really tried for Halloween, started by wanting six tickets, even tried to purchase only two but nothing available. I asked if there would be more released next week and he said he had not heard that would be the case. Fingers crossed for all still trying!

lol no mention of a hold time here either. I take that the same way I take it when a menu doesn’t list prices - that this may get ugly.

 

[Bethislucy]

So what time does the phone lines close since I think I'll be still attempting to get through?

 

[DsneyDude1]

Mine are linked, but not showing up-- it's been about 40 minutes. How long should it take?

It's been over 2 hours and mine do not show under my plans yet after linking.

 

[TorontoGirl]

For those just tuning in...Let's throw a rundown into the middle of this...Correct me where I'm wrong...

• Color of DVC card doesn't matter. Whatsoever. I am a resale owner and purchased tickets via DVC Member Services.
  • I used 407-566-3800 - assume the 800 number works, as well.
• If you RENTED DVC Points - best not to call the DVC Numbers - you will be required to provide the account number and other information that you likely don't have. You're better off tackling this with just your reservation number where the DVC owner info isn't needed via 407-939-4240.

That sound about right??

My notation is that I am an associate member - so my hubby has a blue card but I dont have ANY card and I was told I needed to have him on the phone with me to buy.

This doesn't apply to anyone who has the resale card or rented pts and can book thru their ressie number on a non DVC phone line.

 

[Sanwich]

Hookay, got my tickets. As previously mentioned, I used the Spanish DVC Member Services line (I'm a member and have a res made on points). The wait on hold was about 45 mins. The CM answered in Spanish, but she was very nice and able to switch to English no problem. I do feel kind of guilty using this method, but after a few hours of getting through to the regular line, entering my member info, and then being told by the recording to call back, I was getting desperate. She gave me my confirmation # and mentioned that they're asking people to wait about an hour before trying to link the tickets to MDE.

They told me it would take a day or two to get linked to my plans.
