I rented points for my stay for the May 11th date.
DVC still doesn’t have me in the system for being onsite to be able to register early, even though my reservation shows up in MDE.
I don’t actually care much as I’m already going to the After Hours event at HS the week before, but this is interesting for anyone considering renting points to get into future events. Not sure if it’s a one off or a common thing.
It just says a reservation at any WDW owned resort .
Early Registration Window * – Opens April 4, 2023
The early registration window for Disney’s Hollywood Studios events is open to eligible Members with existing Resort reservations at a Disney-owned-and-operated hotel at Walt Disney World Resort in Florida** or at Disney’s Vero Beach Resort—with party size modifications finalized prior to April 2, 2023.
So the window to add guests has also already passed.
@Bubblez , what makes you think you’re not being recognised? It could just be you haven’t had the email, which you don’t actually need anyway to register.
Maybe someone can post the link, or I’ll see if I can find it.
I went to the DVC site to register and when I looked at upcoming plans, my stay wasn’t on the site.
And when I called DVC a few weeks ago, I told them I wanted to pre register but they couldn’t find my reservation either, even though it shows up as MDE.
That was when I posted asking if Disney frowns on rentals because I felt weird saying that I “was staying on a friend’s points” which was what I thought I was told to say when I first booked for a different stay last year. This stay is the credit I received when I cancelled that trip.
And when I was on the DVC site today, I didn’t see a place to sign up for the Moonlit Magic.
However I know that in the past there have been issues for people who had a blue card but had booked using “ineligible” points. I don’t know if that is still a problem or not.
That’s a bummer! I didn’t think they sold out. I’m unfamiliar with the capacity they allow. Does that mean that there’s no availability for the general registration day? Do you have a Sept room booked?
