I am trying to book CRT and I have a dining package (not qs) but I'm still being asked for my credit card to prepay. Has the policy changed? It's been a few years since I have used the dining plan.
It's been this way for at least 4-5 years now, if not longer.
You prepay for the meal, now. When you get to the restaurant, tell your server that you are using DDP, and then they'll process your credits and give you a refund of the prepay amount.
This is not what I did when booking CRT in May for November. I have the dining plan, so when logged into MDE to make the reservation, I didn't have to pay the $200+ cost of two adults & two kids.
I was there last September and had reservations for ten people for dinner. We were able to use our dining plan credits to reserve. I had to call to do that but it would've had to change since last year cause I would've remembered having to put that much money down. I would call and check with reservations!
I booked in April and I didn't have to pay. There was a box to tick if I wanted to reserve with DDP credits instead of payment. I think they still might have had the credit card details so if we are no show they charge it but they do not charge it in advance. Is your dining plan showing on MDE? Or have you tried to see if the website/app (whichever you are not using) allows you to reserve with DDP instead of with CC? It often seems that one or the other isn't working properly!
Glad you got it done!I was able to book on my very old outdated tablet last night using the dining plan to pay. For whatever reason it wouldn't work on my desktop or phone
