Congrats! Post pictures of your lovely dinner!!
that was great!Wait a minute...you went on a trip at Christmastime to a distant land...and there was NO ROOM FOR YOU AT THE INN??
So when is your reservation for V&A???!!!
However, I doubt that Disney is footing the bill on the compensation. In all likelihood, it is being paid for by the VGF condo association, meaning it is coming out of the VGF owners' budget.
I did wonder about who was actually footing the bill. I hope it was Disney and not the condo association- maybe they eat the cost it in the name of customer satisfaction? Even though it was a points only stay Disney knows the customer is still going to spend on tickets, dining, etc and wants to keep them happy.
If they did put the burden on the condo association, I wonder if they would charge the condo "at cost" or for the full boat including Disney's profit (i.e., the $400 meal we had certainly cost Disney a small fraction of that).

We've seen reports before, I remember an issue at BCV a few years ago where 3 different families reported being bumped. One got BCV concierge, one were bumped back to their home resort of OKW (and told that was the reason) and I forget the thirdVictoria and Alberts would be my first choice!! And for those that have a problem with this? Imagine if this was YOUR Christmas treat for the family and "no room for you". Having witnessed hysterics at the front desk of some DVC members because of some stupid stuff? You all know what I'm talking about, right? Not having a DVC room at the DVC resort you were guaranteed a reservation at? As previously said what if it was YOU? I would be more than willing to pay an extra $20 or so overall to take care of things like this. We had a circumstance where I am sure it was a detriment to DVC, but they were so great...my take on this is the "pay it forward" type of thing. Be happy that someone got taken care of because of an unforeseen circumstance, this could be YOU someday.
That being said....did you go to Victoria and Alberts?
