Question for you Disney Visa Experts

[mirandag819]

I tried asking this on a disney forum, but haven't gotten a response that I am sure of. So I thought I would ask you wonderfully smart ladies.

Have any of you picked up the Rewards card for the Disney Visa at DTD? What was the process? Do they assign it to your credit card account when you pick it up, or does that happen when you call?

Here is what I am wanting to know:

I have a Disney Visa and have a rewards card already to use my Disney Dollars. My dad is being sweet and offered me his almost 300 rewards card, but he hasn't requested it yet and I leave in less then a week.

I know you can pick up an empty rewards card in DTD and call to load it with your rewards points, but when you pick up the card do they assign it to your rewards credit card, or can that be done when the person calls to transfer the rewards points? In other words can I pick up another empty rewards card and then my dad call and load it from his Chase card?

Thanks!

Hmm I wonder if your dad can load them onto your existing card?

I know he can't load them on my existing card, they won't let you transfer them to another card holder, and loading them on my card would be considered transferring. You are allowed to "gift" you rewards, but they won't let you "transfer" them.

I just can't find any information about what they do when you pick a card up in Down Town Disney, do they just hand you an empty card, or do they assign the empty card to your credit card right then?

Anyone picked one up at Disney World before?

Jen picked up a card last year on her trip. She can probably tell you what you need to know when she gets on.

We picked up an empty card at DTD a few years ago. They used our Visa to verify our account and identity but the rewards card wasn't "assigned" until we called and had the points transferred. Hopefully Jen can pop on later and tell you if this is still the case! Good luck!

When the verified you account, did they verify that you had enough available to transfer rewards ($20 in rewards points) or just that you had a valid goodstanding account? Since I have already transfered all of my points it will look like I don't have enough to transfer again. Or do you even know what they were checking for?

Me Jen or Jen V?

Me Jen didn't do this...however, I did have the Disney Rewards card w/me, but I transferred everything before I left. I even had my mom transfer more online when we were there since my statement cutoff!!

Maybe Jen V got a rewards card at DTD??

Oh I assumed Cate meant you Jen, but maybe she did mean Jen V
