I think that people need to understand that these are marketing events paid for by DVD the sales arm of the DVC. The fact that members have to deal with a phone system that can't handle the traffic, MS CM's that weren't trained about the event, and the very limited number of seats available isn't very mouse like. Yes it's free for the qualified members who got to make a reservation and who either will be at WDW during the time of their reservation or will be taking an extra vacation to attend. Starting at 8:58, we dialed over 100 times trying to get past the busy signals, finally got answered with bad VM ques, stayed on the line anyway and was later told to expect a 30 minute wait. Got picked up 20 minutes later and was told immediately, I know why you are calling and I'm sorry by the CM. He checked our December dates anyway, no joy and he stated that they were booked through January within the first 5 minutes. Currently there were 127 calls in que to be answered. If the event is booked, why not put a sold out recording on the phone system, and publish a separate number for these events that can better manage the callers?
