I was keen to take advantage of the favourable exchange rate (UK buyer) so I sent a cheeky email to give them a nudge. Closing Docs arrived 2hours later. Don’t ask, don’t get, right?

SO I got some documents to sign. It says

Application for Withholding Certificate for Disposition by Nonresident Person of Hawaii Real Property Interest.

Is this the Closing document? It's just asking for last four of social and signature.

ALSO, it shows Date of Transfer: 12/23/2020. Is that the closing date?

I also need to correct my entry here, and in the ROFR thread.
I had posted this contract at $142/Pt - 30 Points BCV, when it was actually sold at $140/Point.
I'll bore you with the funny story:

I was surfing for a small BWV listing, and thought I had found a 30-Point one with my use year, and I put in a bid of $130/Point (It listed at $150)
As soon as I hit submit on the offer, I noticed that I had jumped in the listings from BWV to BCV. I called Fidelity, and reached the agent who sold me my previous SSR contract. Fortunately it was her BCV listing, and she confirmed I was the first bidder, but noted that the seller was really looking for list-price offers only. I immediately confessed that I thought I had bid on BWV, and would be willing to go higher for BCV, but not up to $150. She put me on hold while she contacted the seller, and came back to the phone with what I thought was "would you go to 142"? I had planned to bid against myself with a revised bid of 140, and for $2/Pt on a 30 point contract, I didn't hesitate and said YES. She put me on hold again, then returned with "the seller accepts"!.
I didn't realize until I scrutinized the closing documents more closely that the list price was $4,200. That is 30 Points at $140/Point. She must have said to me "would you go to 42", meaning 42-hundred All's well that ends well ! I now have my 30 Points at $140/Point, $4,200 Total, before closing costs. I will update the string on the ROFR thread, to capture the correct cost per point, as it may be a negligible amount on this contract, but I don't want to skew the averages with erroneous data.

I would call member services

I called member services yesterday and now I am more concerned. The woman I spoke with couldn't find anything for our contract but said she could see someone with the same name, living in a different state who had a contract processed around that time. She gave me an email address and said that I would have to contact administration and see if they could figure it out. Now I am paranoid that they accidently assigned our contract and points to someone else with the same name. When I sent an email, they responded that I should get a response in 5 business days.

I'm going to guess some of those 10's are 11's unless you got closing docs before passing . You're like me writing checks at the beginning of the month .

 

[Llama mama]

the wait is awful....... contract loaded 11/3 and still awaiting my points....
I have decided I have no patience

me either! I was so hoping to use our points for Christmas week, so I don't have to shell out hundreds for our stay, but not thinking that is going to happen now.

Mine loaded 11/9 and still no points Did your email by any chance say you will receive points in 7-10 business days? Ours did and I'm prepared to call on the 11th business day if they don't have since we have a trip very very soon.

 

[Goofy4Pooh]

Success!
It took awhile but the missing points from our Saratoga Springs resale purchase finally showed up on our dashboard. And before they were due to expire !
My DH and I were able to book a one bedroom villa for a week beginning this Sunday the 15th at our home resort successfully using all expiring points. So excited for this trip.

Thank you!

We are lucky to live nearby so we usually do day trips or one or two nights at the most. Really looking forward to chilling out for a whole week.

Lots of Pixie Dust to all of you still in the waiting game. It will happen!!

I'm so antsy to get a membership # assigned and get into the DVC portal (new member).

Our deed was recorded/sent on 10/29. So anxious!!
