    Skip counter - Enterprise at MCO

    Can you skip the counter with Enterprise at MCO? I typically rent from their sister company National which always lets you skip, and I'm pretty sure their other company Alamo does as well. We have a fairly long flight ahead of us with small children and I'd rather not have to wait in line at...

    Tickets and Annual Pass Questions - Please add your ticket questions to this thread

    Anyone recently upgrade a 14-day ticket (UK) to an annual pass? Looking to see what value they are giving for the tickets. Also, am I correct in thinking I can upgrade my ticket as long as it hasn't expired or been wholly used? For example, can I upgrade my ticket near the end of my trip and...

    Are lenders required to issue loan satisfaction after payoff.

    Yes the mortgage was recorded. Perhaps I’ll reach out to the lender to clarify.

    Are lenders required to issue loan satisfaction after payoff.

    I'm not familiar with Florida (or even US) law when it comes to loans/mortgages for DVC. Are lenders required to issue a loan satisfaction document once the amount is paid off? I noticed that Disney did this on our direct contract but I'm not sure if this is required or just some DVC/Disney does...

    Four weeks in a studio, using the kitchenette - and survived!

    Well done! I don't know what I was more shocked at: A) the 4 week stay (I'd love that!!) B) Living off studio amenities and not really eating out.

    Question for Canadian DVC owners - dues?

    I opened the RBC US Account and they gave me the option of adding on a no fee US RBC Credit Card. So now I just use that card for all US based transactions to avoid forex fees. When I rent out points, I have the renter pay via PayPal into my US wallet. I simply transfer the amount from paypal...

    I've had a really good experience renting my points through some of the larger FB DVC point rental groups.

    Creative Ways to Finance DVC

    Ya it doesn't take much to tack on a few hundred in interest. For me, I would need to see if there is any reason why I would be willing to pay a few extra hundred (ie. bonus points or credit card bonus etc..). However, if most cases its better to straight-up pay for it on a CC or even break it...

    Closing Time!

    Neat idea really - wouldn't have thought about reallocating the points towards an existing reservation.

    The Official Riviera Owners & Info Thread

    Same for us - we used to do DDP but just found that there wasn't enough value to keep doing it year after year. I will say that I did enjoy the idea of not "paying" after each meal. It gave me the same vibe as not paying upon checkout after staying DVC.

    Attraction Tickets - New Triple Offer

    What exactly do you receive for the free memory maker? Is it a code or is it automatically linked to the tickets that you get.

    Closing Time!

    I had zero issue asking them to load points today via member chat. The agent simply said no problem and it was done within 10 minutes or so.

    Closing Time!

    I'm also a 5/10 Deed recorded - hopefully I see it today on my account (existing member). I got a lot of points to use with time quickly disappearing.

    2021 points - offer/usage?

    I would look at it as either a way to offset the initial cost should you choose to rent them, or perhaps a "free" stay if you can manage to find availability for something that meets your needs. I just finished a resale purchase of a 200 pt DEC UY contract that includes 400 points in 2022 (200...

    ROFR Thread April to June 2023 *PLEASE SEE FIRST POST FOR INSTRUCTIONS & FORMATTING TOOL*

    I’ve had correspondence with her included as recent as yesterday so unless they are including her for no particular reason, I’m believe she is still with Mason. Of course that doesn’t mean she isn’t leaving at some point.
