Closing Time!!

I talked to member admin today on the phone and they stated there's only a few people working and they are a around 4 week behind for current DVC members adding resale and 6-8 weeks behind for non-DVC members adding resale...so for me I'm looking for points in my account right around the end of this month.
I'm 18 days passed ROFR passing on my SSR resale, but I'm still waiting for closing docs. So this sounds like I have ~4 weeks once I finally closed to get the contract added, then another 2-3 weeks for points to appear? ....oooof, the resale process has gotten so slow. Hopefully with the parks opening up soon, there will be more people brought into DVC again?

Would this mean that you need to wait 6-8 weeks to see the points after the deed is recorded, or is the 6-8 weeks referring tom something else? I see a lot of posts here where people have a deed recorded but are still waiting for points.

Does anyone have a good estimate of how long it takes for one to have points in their account after buyer and seller send closing docs.

has it really been 4 months!?!? Crazy!
 


I don't know all my dates, but closed 5/20, got the first email about the transfer on the 1st of July. But I never received the activation code email (new member), member services can't find my membership (I've been calling once a day for the past week), and member administration won't answer my emails. Any ideas about how to fix this problem? Or do I just keep waiting and calling and waiting.

I missed an email that needed a new signature due to numbers being wrong on 7/1/20 and sent it back on 7/5/20. I also didn’t send funds until after the seller sent back closing docs. Seems like it went quick to me because I haven’t been checking everyday, and now don’t know how to check for the deed recording lol ETA: thanks for the help! Recorded 7/7/20

Six-Eight weeks after closing to get points into the system is not good!! Dang! I hope they can speed that up. Now I’m beginning to worry that the points I’ve got in ROFR right now are not going to be useful for my travel plans with limited availability being projected. I think booking right at 11 months is going to be even more important than normal, and I just bought an Aug UY. :headache:

You can search on the OC Comptroller website. If you have a somewhat common last name, go to the second row and type your name (last first) in the "Grantee" box (and my apologies to the mods if this site is blocked -- this is my first time posting a link and I am not trying to break any rules!):

When I called, I was told that email is the best way as that department was still only working remotely so I couldn't be transferred via phone to someone to give me my membership ID. I was told to include the contract # and names of the sellers, and within a week I received a reply with my membership ID, and confirming the resale transfer, but that points would take another 2 - 3 weeks to load. Maybe you are missing some of the information when you email, and that's why you haven't been getting responses? I did this both when we were new owners buying resale, and again when I bought another resale contract.

Also, it's a long a$$ email: wdw.dvc.member.administration@email.disney.com. Is this the one you have been using?
 
Out of interest as an existing DVC member, if you buy re-sale do you still get a 'welcome email'?
Or is the new contract and points just added to your existing account?

I've added several resale contracts in the past and never received an email. The contract and points just showed up in my online account. Always the same UY and membership number.
 
This is probably a really silly question, but how do you *know* it's been sent to ROFR? When your deposit is taken?
