Question y'all... This is our first DVC purchase, so we should wait until a letter from Disney for our membership number and FYI? What else do we receive from Disney? Points book, welcome home info or just the member number? TIA

I only received the member number in the mail and later some magnets.

We were able to call Member Administration and get our ID# today. Just waiting on our points now!

I just called to get our Membership number and they asked for my name and last 4 of my SS# instead of contract number and seller name(s). They said our contract wasn't showing up yet. Our deed was recorded on the 13th. What was your experience @Carlymouse?

Did you talk with Member Administration, not Member Services? That's the mistake I made the first time, and I had a similar experience to you.

Call 800-800-9800, but choose 2 for Member Administration. Then choose option #3, the one about having a new title transfer. If your member number is ready, that person will be able to give it to you.

Good luck!

Congratulations, Carlymouse! Now brace for addonitis to strike in 5-4-3-2… :welcome:
 
Yes, we are brand new members of the DVC family!
Awesome, can’t wait to join you! Getting a little nervous, mine is a Feb use year and I’m not 100% positive the points for 2018 were banked. Definitely share your sentiment on these boards, you all are an amazing community thank you!

*Lesson learned, never send my closing docs and check until the seller returns their paperwork first. This one took almost a month for the seller to return docs. Ridiculous.

Thank you @Carlymouse and @Frederic Civish for the help! I had pressed 2 for member administration but then pressed 1 on the next menu which took me to member services! :headache: :rolleyes1

We are beyond excited to be new DVC members! And that addonitis is real! :hyper: lol

Have to say I'm rather impressed with the level of service and timeliness of everything. Closing 11 days after ROFR is much faster than I was anticipating.

Now just can't wait to be official DVC members and book that first trip!
