This morning I wanted to add two nights on to an existing reservation at the 7 month mark. But, my password that worked fine a couple of days ago (and still works fine on all my other Disney accounts) decided it did not want to work at 5 am Pacific Saturday morning. (A very frustrating situation, but not the subject of this post.) So, I had to call Member Services when they opened at 6 am.
When I told the woman at MS that I wanted to modify a reservation, her first words were “You couldn’t do that online?” No. No, I couldn’t do that online. That is why I called you. Of course the first of the two nights I wanted to add was gone (it may or have may not been available at 5 am). I asked if any of the nights I already had booked were still available so I could rebook them with another contract. She said yes, but she would need to cancel my reservation and it would go to someone on the waitlist. She was able to get someone in her web department to reset my password, but the entire conversation just felt off.
I was transferred to another man in MS to renew my AP. Again, it was a similar experience. If you looked at a transcript of the calls everything would look fine. But both transactions felt off and both customer service agents seemed to have the attitude that they did not want to be talking to me, despite me doing my best to not let any of my frustrations show. I’m not sure if anyone else has experienced the same.
In a couple weeks I will be calling back to book the Member Cruise. I’m prepared for busy signals and a long wait on hold, but I really hope I do not also have to deal with a customer service rep who hates their job.
