I thought I'd let you know what just happened w/me and my Universal 5 day ticket purchase.
I called the 888-837-2273 number to ask about my Entertainment $10.00 per ticket coupons and if using them would give me a better deal than purchasing on-line for the $94.95 price 5 day passes.
Since we'll only be there for 3 days, I thought I may be able to get a better deal w/using the Entertainment coupon. Wrong. The 3 day pass was $119.00 pperson before taxes.
O.K. so now I ask is the on-line deal @94.95 is the best deal available? I'm told yes ~ I make the purchase via telephone w/free standard shipping (just a $2.00 processing fee). Total is $406.48 for the four 5 day bonus tickets. I'm happy w/that deal.
I then go back to the tickets.universalstudios.com website to check out the Mastercard deal thinking it must be $94.95 per ticket, just want to make sure. Not so!!
The deal w/using your Mastercard gets you your ticket for $89.95. ea. I call back and ask them if they are aware of this Mastercard deal. They tell me "no". I cancel that order and then place my order online using my mastercard. Now I know it's only a savings of $21.27, but it's a savings none-the-less. I'm getting a free 5th ticket, which I don't need (any suggestions for what to do w/it?); but that's not the point. If you use your mastercard, your ticket price will be $89.95, not $94.95. Just had to share this experience!
