Disney Gift Card

[gpp2001]

I was trying to reserve a room at the Disneyland Hotel for Saturday Night and tried to use my Disney Gift Card and they told me that I could not use a gift card to pay for my reservation. Now I have never done this, so I couldn't say she was wrong but I thought that I had read of people using gift cards to pay for their rooms. Am I wrong or was she??

I'm thinking of calling back and trying to work with a new reservationist!!

Call back and get a different CM. I have used Disney Gift Cards to pay for my reservations many times before both through Disney and through a TA. It is a regular Disney gift card right and not an electronic one to the Disney Store? There are some gift cards that are electronic and can only be used at the Disney Store but the regular Disney Gift Cards can be used.

Thanks Janet - that's what I thought but I couldn't argue with her - I had to go pick up my daughter from school and was running late.

It's a regular gift card - it's one I received from here.

I just used 3/4 of all my Disney gift cards that I earned on here to pay towards my Disney World res. through Disney directly. They definitely DO take them for reservations...

Have a great trip!

I agree with everyone else. I have used many gift cards to pay for our trips to Disney World.

Have a wonderful trip!

Thanks - it's not really a "trip" - we are only 40 minutes away from Disneyland and are Annual Passholders. DH got invited to the premiere of World of Color at California Adventure on Saturday and our passes are good on Sunday, so we thought we would stay overnight. Especially since I have the gift card and it's looking really good that I will be able to get another $500 gift card by the end of the month - I am planning on using it to pay for our passes as they expire in August.
