APs and Resort guests can now upgrade their magicband

I hope more appear soon. I didn't order yesterday, but did choose. A couple of the party wanted to think about it. I didn't realize they'd sell out. Now, if I watch for what appears, can I place an order for some upgraded ones or do I have to wait for all? (If I am making sense...)
 
This is absolutely crazy. Out of 39 choices, only 24 are left. You would think Disney would be prepared for storm of orders that would come in. Within less than a day 15 are out of stock? Really?

Agreed. This is crazy. Especially when 8 of the 24 are the original solid colors. Is this Disney's way of getting rid of custom MB's that they aren't making anymore (rather than selling at the outlet stores)? Sigh. Really wanted the snacks one. Guess I'll wait and see how this plays out since I have an AP MB that I've never customized, so I can wait and see how this all shakes out.

For our order, I didn’t have a purchase button show up until everyone’s were chosen, and when I purchased them there is no longer any way to view or change them. I think you have to order all of the bands that are on one reservation at the same time, and once purchased no changes can be made. I don’t know what would happen if you just customized them all with free ones, maybe you can keep changing those like you used to be able to do?

I have 30 days left, so I think I will just wait and see what is available then. If someone's choice isn't there, I will make sure they have a solid or a second choice to choose. (The choices I made already went back to the previously solid color that was chosen.)
 
Definitely frustrated. I did get one set ordered yesterday. I had all but one selected for the second order and was going to do that tonight. When I saw people talking on here I checked this afternoon and two of our options were already gone. Now there is only one of the ones we want available. Hopefully they just need to restock.

That’s definitely what I would do in your case. It’s crazy how few are left compared to yesterday, they have to have a plan to add more (at least I would hope so!)
 


Well snap! Evidently some of the MB's are already sold out. I wanted the snack one and I'm not seeing it as a choice today. Arghhh. Anyone else noticing that some are already gone? EDIT: I think the SSE one is gone also. Says there are 39 choices, but counting them, there's only 37 available.
Oh I am glad I got mine yesterday then!
 
Argh, my oldest DS took his sweet time deciding and now none of our choices are left...most importantly, my middle DS’s birthday one isn’t available. I hope it comes back in stock soon. :(
 
I had a due date of customizing the solid color bands by 30 days out. So I did that. Now when I go in, it just shows the solid colors we chose and gives me no other options. Is the 11 days out new with the now being able to upgrade the bands?? It's always been 30 days for me. :confused3
I mentioned this before but 30 days is the default. If you make choices by then or don’t decline, the order goes through. But waiting until later has been an option as well. It just wasn’t really well known, and the exact days (11 days out for delivery/6 days out for pickup) I don’t think was ever published til now. Regardless, bc you customized and hit your 30 days, your order is probably processing and cannot be changed. I declined my bands once I heard about this so as not to have the order processed before this option. Then I just edited it once the option became live.

I wish I’d known that before, I always assumed if you hit the decline magic bands option they would disappear never to be seen again! I had never read anything about it, honestly wouldn’t have trusted the CMs on the phone if I had called to ask, and didn’t want to try and chance it because even though we don’t *need* the bands, I want to take anything Disney is offering with my reservation. Someday I’ll do something with our giant stash of MBs!
 
Tried countless times yesterday and today. We aren't going until August so I will try again in a month or so ‍:confused3

Dang it!! >:( Same here, I thought if you declined they would just completely go away. Grrrr, now I'm mad, we could've gotten upgraded bands!!!
Oh well, first world problems, I guess ... I'm still going to Disney World! :cool1:
 
I just decided to take a look at the options. Right now it's only showing me 18 possibilities and not even all of the free colors (only 5 of those are showing).

I don't have a trip planned until November so plenty of time, just wanted to check it out.

No pink, blue, red... I don't understand what's going on. All these colours were available unlimited and free. Now they're not even there?

No purple either (at least not that I can see). I see 24 options, which includes 4 solids.
 
Yesterday morning I could get the bands we wanted for two of us but had to wait for my two sons to decide as I was away from home and they forgot to do as I had told them!!!
Then when i wanted to order the original two my husband and i wanted were gone. Originally we had declined the bands. Now in order to purchase my two boys ones I have to put a free one down for both myself and my husband I dont have the option of declining for two of us and purchasing for the other two. This is complete madness. We leave tomorrow and this was for our last resort reservation in a weeks time. I was hoping we might have the option of purchasing once we are there but not if I cant decline on two bands. I will have to order all four as my two sons will not get the ones they want if I dont do it now.
 
I’m hoping that all these bands are not sold out. To me it seems like that there is just something wrong with the site. - Cause now I’m down to a choice of only 4 solid colors and about 14 of the custom ones.
Our trip isn’t till the end of September, so I have time, but it would be nice to know what the heck is going on
 
It would be nice if they put up some splash page on the website saying they are having issue, if in fact they are. The other night, for a brief time they had only two of the solid colors. Hopefully they get this ironed out soon, for those who's deadline for ordering is coming close.
 
Does anyone know if you order last minute will they arrive at the resort? We have ordered a color a few days before and had them waiting for us at the resort but I don't want to get my daughter excited if it won't happen.
