Welcome home neighbor!

 

[Noles235]

Calling seems to be the way to go to get your points loaded. Just need to get someone helpful.

Calling seems to be the way to go to get your points loaded. Just need to get someone helpful.

There are people that create the account, and different people load the points. They are different people, and they don't load points every day, only certain days of the week.

 

[soniam]

Welcome home neighbor!

Can't wait to book our first stay. However, it probably won't be until November 2021. We already rented points for this year and booked a room for next summer. Luckily, we don't really have any points until 2021 anyway.

Updated: Done at last! Points loaded late on Sunday of Labor Day Weekend (I did not call in to request them, so someone is working late on a holiday weekend!)

Finally all done. Just went in and those VGF points now show up for 2022. Making that offer seems like it was years ago at this point. Yay 2020 and its cavalcade of fun?

 

[G.C.]

Did you call or did the points just appear?

Just showed up. I was trying to be veryveryvery patient and it worked out.

 

[G.C.]

I'm a day after you, hopefully mine drop today if they're working all weekend.

Good luck, a couple updates since indicate that may be the case.

Yeah got them yesterday, spent already.

** Updated for the LAST time!!! **

Our points loaded today, on their own 4 days after our contract showed in our account! I still need to call MS to get my email address issue squared away, but thankfully I don't need to beg them to add our points. So happy this long journey is over and we are OFFICIALLY 1st time DVC members!!! Booked our first trip today with the banked 2019 points we had included in the contract!

I decided to not send the money until the seller returned their closing docs which just happened today! Now just need to wire the money tomorrow (didn't realize my bank needs verbal confirmation of a wire transfer and the wire transfer department is closed until tomorrow), and should be set for closing -- hopefully this week, then begins the long process of waiting for MA to load my contract.

My bank said the same thing but really it’s more to protect you to make sure you have all the correct details and it’s not a scam.

Yeah, no big deal - just wanted to get it sent right away and realized now I have to wait until tomorrow

Agree it is a good thing that they do this!

If you have your account, which you should, just go into your profile and correct your email address. No need to call.

5 months later and I finally have points in my account and and thrilled to be part of the DVC family. We took our first trip to Aulani earlier this year and my 3 year old daughter loved it. We hope to return for many years to come, hopefully with our grandchildren.

Now I have 12 points (OCT 18 UY) expiring in less than a month, what to do?

You could transfer them to someone either at low cost or a gift.

Still waiting on estoppel and closing docs ...passed ROFR 8/20.... when I checked at the end of Aug, the title co said they anticipated they would have it and i would likely receive closing docs last wk. Still waiting. Hope there are no issues! It’s a small point contractso I doubt the seller owes DVC anything that would be holding it up.
