    SSR Lovers and Owners Part 3

    We were at Saratoga Springs recently in the Paddock building next to the pool and bridge. In the middle of the night each night there would be a brief jackhammer like sound that we thought were the pipes that woke us each night. Has anyone else experienced this there? If so,, do you know...

    Member Services Capacity

    It took me 84 minutes this past Sunday before someone answered and 5 minutes for her to give me the ticket prices on the special for our trip. As I got into the queue, it told me my estimated wait time would be "greater than 90 minutes."

    DVC Ticket Offer

    So I called in and they told me that my 3/2/2 split stay is eligible, but I can't start my tickets 3 days earlier when I am staying on rented points for three nights. My full split visit is 3/3/2/2. She couldn't tell me if ticketing would let me move my dates earlier or not, just that she...

    Buying 2 smaller contracts direct vs one larger

    This was not the case for us in September when the minimum was 100 points. We had to have both contracts at the same home resort. That was the only stipulation. If you want my guide's name, send me a message and I'll send you his way.

    RCI Trading 101 -Can someone please direct me?

    I've never used RCI with DVC points before, but when we purchased DVC recently at our discussion with member services they told me that the deadline to deposit your points into RCI is 45 days prior to their expiration and you must deposit them in 10 point increments. Another thing to consider...

    Pros/cons to having only one person in your party with an Annual Pass

    We bought 1 AP for our family of 4 when we had 9 day tickets for our group. We were staying off site so the parking savings were substantial, plus the memory maker included and the food/merch discounts made it worth while. I had plans for additional trips that year and so it was very...

    No availability in a Copper Creek studio at 11 months

    I was very surprised to read this thread because just a month ago, we were pricing out different direct options with DVD and they offered us a fixed week contract in a standard studio for the week after Thanksgiving. We declined because we didn't want to pay that much per point and the studios...
