I was able to get most of my fast passes around 10:00 am this morning. I hope everyone else was able to get through the issues. It can be very frustrating.
The spinning wheel of death!I had the same issues booking my fp this morning. I was on at exactly 7:00 and it took at least 15 minutes to book my first fastpass due to getting olaf or the spinning wheel of death. After more than an hour I got my 3 or 4 hardest to get then quit. By late morning everything worked fine to grab the rest. Frustrating.
Maybe they should have fast passes for customer service. Sorry to hear of everyone's troubles.I just called and was welcomed with "Due to heavier than usual call volume the first agent will be available in 90 minutes".

Thank you for your post! I was trying to add fastpasses for my upcoming trip & thought there might be a glitch with my account or computer. I then tried the app on my phone without success. I came to the Dis to see if anyone else was having problems & saw your post. I then knew to keep trying & after several hours, I was able to add my fastpasses.
Sorry to anyone who has to deal with this aggravation! I agree that for the money everyone is spending, Disney should find a way to fix this.
I hope you all get the fastpasses you want!
Happy travels!
Have you had any experience refreshing before you get to the parks????I agree that with Disney’s resources, and the fact that they’ve moved everything online now, the system should at least function.
That said, OP, if you don’t like some of your FP times, try modifying. If nothing good comes up, refresh (pick “morning” or “afternoon” or a specific time to just to make it search again) and keep trying. You’ll be surprised at the differing options.

Up at 5:30 CDT for 6:00 FP+ at the 60 day mark and the system was all about crash, crash, crash. So between my PC, I-Pad, my phone, and my wife's phone we were able to cobble together our plans for our September 22 trip. Did not get times I liked so much but they will be okay and I got SDD and FOP so I have no issues there. We are also going to the 7:00 AP event in Toy Story Land so we get two SDD.
It was just absolutely nuts the number of times we were kicked out, kicked off or got to see Olaf's head laying on the ground. Another one that I have never seen before came up as well. The system telling me that every FP+ for every park was taken for 60 days plus 4. That was a new one.
Wow.We all pay the price so I'm not seeing the difference between something not working for me vs someone else. The real difference is some can roll with it and some I guess cannot.
Thank you so much, I have had no luck up to now trying the refresh system a month out from my trip. I read and saw how at the parksPeople are changing their plans all the time, not just the day before. Even when I grab fastpasses at 60+whatever day mark, I end up tweaking them here and there to better fit with other things like dining reservations and shows. It doesn't hurt to check if you want to change things around. Even if you're afraid of accidentally losing something good, there's at least one confirmation message before you do it.
those in the know were refreshing back and force to basically find everything they want so I was surprised I saw nothing change when doing the refresh for like a half hour...Thank you so much, I have had no luck up to now trying the refresh system a month out from my trip.

Thank you so muchThat refresh strategy is mainly for the same day for sure. But like if you want a particular FP and don't have it yet, just check randomly here and there but it won't be as drastic as a same day change. Also look out for when they extend hours and you might find one during those times as well. If you watch these boards you'll see people talk about it and you should be able to jump on that pretty easily.
That was us yesterday! Really sucked....took 4 hours to cobble together an ok lineup....but didnt get SDD or Mine Train!!!Up at 5:30 CDT for 6:00 FP+ at the 60 day mark and the system was all about crash, crash, crash.
