Yay! You’re going to get your BWV!!

Thank you! Yes, we love BWV, so we’re very excited. Also, so glad we didn’t have the 40+ day wait like our last attempt.

Taken 5/13

well that does not bode well for me. We also sent ours on 4/30 100 point AKV contract at $100 per point. I'll be really, really surprised if it passes now.

I almost feel like I’m overpaying but it’s the right UY, the right number of points and it’s a fully-loaded contract. Sent to ROFR on 4/26 and now the wait begins...

Sooooooooo excited

Oh yeah, I think they're taking the one I am selling (200 OKW June UY at $92 sent 4/27). I had a feeling before and it's stronger now. I am cool with it as I get paid either way. But congrats on yours passing so quick!

Anyone that heard today buy through Fidelity?

Morning everyone. Can anyone help me out with a query I’m trying to get straight in my head please? If I bought a contract with a December Use Year that had 2019 points included could I bank those points and then use then in 2020 for a September 2021 vacation using 19,20 and 21’s points combined?So effectively having 750 totalled for a September 2021 vacation, is that doable or not?

 

[DaveNan]

IF it were a 250 point contract with all 2019, 220, and 2021 points.. yes

Sept 2021 falls in the Dec 2020 UY, so you would be able to use banked 2019 points and borrowed 2021 points along with your 2020 points to make the reservation.

December UYs can be difficult to wrap your head around.

Cheers for that. So the fact that it’s a December Use Year wouldn’t stop me borrowing 2021’s points in October 2020? Even though at that point 2020’s points wouldn’t have been issued yet?

You switched scenarios there. If you go Sept 2021, you'd be able to bank 2019's, use 2020's and borrow 2021's (if you needed the 2021 points). If you go in Oct 2020, you'd be able to use the 2019 points (without banking) and borrow the 2020 points. You wouldn't not be able to touch the 2021 points for the Oct 2020 scenario.

If you're use year is December then you get that years points in December. So you get issued your 2019 points in Dec 2019 and your 2020 points in Dec 2020.

Sorry, I didn’t explain myself fully. When I said use 2021’s in October 2020 I meant use them then to book for September 2021, so 11 months prior to the vacation starting. So what I was asking is could I borrow 2021’s points in October 2020 to book for September 2021, even though in October 2020 I’d already be borrowing 2020’s points due to them not being issued yet? Sorry it’s a bit confusing, I’m trying to explain it as clearly as I can. Thanks.

You would not be borrowing the 2020 points in October 2020. Your points need to be available for the dates of the stay, not the day that you make the reservation. A September 2021 stay, booked in October 2020, would use banked 2019 points, current 2020 points and borrowed 2021 points because a Sept. 2021 vacation falls in the December 2020 UY.

You have to throw away the notion that you aren’t getting you 2020 points until December of that year. You have all of your points, from now until the contract expires, on the day that you purchase. However, you can only bank for one year and borrow from the next year.

Thank you for explaining that for me. So what you’re saying is unless it’s for banking purposes the Use Year really doesn’t bear any issue on anything providing you’re vacationing in the correct time period to use them all. Also, rule of thumb is points can be used (providing they are banked) for 24 months after issue. So theoretically if I had a 100 of my 2021 points left after my 2021 vacation I could bank those and use them towards my 2023 vacation? I only intend visiting every 2 years as I’m overseas so 2022 would be another fallow year points wise.
