MDE, FP+ System is Down

What next? This is sooo frustrating!

Are you there now?

This was bound to happen with all of the hype of the SDMT FP times opening up. Just wwaayyyy to much volume at once for almost any system to handle.

Wow...system is down, current park guests are probably having a difficult day but oh...look! They were able to create a banner at the top of the Dis that advertises their free dining incentive! Good to know their priorities are still with guest satisfaction...

Yup...it was ridiculously slow right after FP+ for SDMR was announced. Then it got all wonky....now, it's down completely. Glad I got what I needed first thing this morning!

Sorry, but future guests probably are happy with free dining announcement and really could care less that people today can't use the MDE while they are at the parks.

Not saying that to be mean, it's just the truth.

How anyone thinks this new FP+ system is better than the old one that was simple, with pieces of paper with return times, is beyond me.

Yeah, except when their dining & Fp ressies disappear, due to a glitch. It happened to us. They were able to retrieve some, but others have disappeared. Oh, but just go to GS or a kiosk and waste an hour each day. You give up after a while.

Are you there now?

Yes, and soaked to the bone..even with a poncho AND an umbrella.

Nothing to worry about folks. Disney has their head of IT on the job and a fix is near.

I think your signature line sums it all up.

That's probably why I just got a notification that my Magic Bands will be waiting for me at our resort upon arrival...........that's wonderful but we don't have a trip booked

 

[Tasmen]

Welp, guess we aren't getting our FP+ today.

Have a good time!!!!

MDE reminds me of Cyberdine systems in the Terminator movies. The system is all messed up, and eventually just starts thinking for itself and tries to destroy the world. That's what MDE is gonna start to do, but it's going to target Universal's reservation system instead, cancelling all their resort reservations and crashing their system.

Too bad WDW doesn't build any new rides and, even if they do, no one wants to go on them.

How anyone thinks this new FP+ system is better than the old one that was simple, with pieces of paper with return times, is beyond me.

Except that its been explained to you several times just today, right?

Yeah, except when their dining & Fp ressies disappear, due to a glitch. It happened to us. They were able to retrieve some, but others have disappeared. Oh, but just go to GS or a kiosk and waste an hour each day. You give up after a while.

Quick questions:
1. Did this happen today? I'm wondering if current guests are having trouble using FPs or tickets today because of the MDE problems.

2. If it happened on a previous trip, were the reservations just gone from your MDE account, or were they gone from Disney's side, too?

Somebody has a sense of humor if this actually happened on Media Day for SDMT.....in the rain. What next? Locusts?

 

[sonofanarchy]

God does have a sense of humor if this actually happened on Media Day for SDMT.....in the rain. What next? Locusts?

I'd bet good money that God has a slightly better IT team than Disney.

It is a total disaster here at MK. They ate handing out paper FPs at the kiosks after you wait in line for 20 minutes. You get one paper, doesn't matter how many fastpasses you are holding.


I have been in the space mountain fp line for 20 minutes so far. Still at the game portion. This is ridiculous.
