I have to say, I've been noticing a trend recently regarding Disney in general and DVC specifically, and it's cropping up a lot here on this thread. I'm uncomfortable with the attitude that just because we want to spend money with a business that they need to genuflect and thank us profusely. There's a sense of entitlement out there that whenever something happens with Disney that we don't like that they are somehow insulting us by refusing to take our money and we will punish them by withholding said money. Say what you want about a couple of salespeople who push the boundaries, but as a general rule Disney employees, including those who work for DVC, are honest, hard-working people who go out of their way to make some of the most demanding customers anywhere happy while doing so for little pay as they sit back and watch their parent company rake in BILLIONS of dollars in profits. They are constantly under the microscope: it has to suck to be them a lot of the time. Regardless, they are by and large respectful and yes, grateful. Unfortunately, more times than I can count I have seen people treat CMs poorly or denigrate them in some form or fashion. That's sort of what's happening here and it's not right.
We have a deal with Disney, and all businesses really. We spend our money and they treat us fairly. They shouldn't abuse their customers, and we shouldn't make them kiss our feet because we chose to spend our money with them. It smacks of entitlement. What happened to the OP in this case was unfortunate, and he has every right to be disappointed that things didn't work out. But to paint the OP as the victim here and Disney as the bad guy is wrong. And it's insulting to suggest that the OP is somehow teaching them a lesson by holding back his hard-earned money. Disney, with its top-notch customer service, has conditioned us to believe that we will always get our way. But that's not the way of the world and it's not the way of The World. I think it would behoove us all to learn how to take "no" for an answer instead of raking people over the coals and taking to the internet to bash hard-working, honest people.
