    Default MagicBands only in Gray???

    Hi Everyone!

    I am going to WDW in January with my family (Party of 10!) and yesterday I realized that I have my MagicBands!

    The problem is that when I go to customize them the only color I have to choose is GRAY...

    Has anyone seen this before? Usually when I call WDW and ask about the MB the answer is always the same "MBs are in testing phase right now, no guarantee that you will get them, yada yada yada"

    I am afraid that if I call I will get the same "pre-scripted" answer.

    Anyone here knows what is going on?

    THANKS!

    Mariano

    It has been reported several times on various fan sites.

    Have you tried logging out then, logging back in...
    and/or clicking through some of the "custom" choices and see where that leads?

    If still no joy, it's likely that if you just wait until your trip dates get closer, you'll get the full rainbow from which to choose.
    You still have a lot of time, yet.
    Just keep checking as time goes by.

    Did you add a shipping address? We are going first week of Dec. and when I checked on My Disney Experience saw that I was able to customize and add fast passes. Could make selections, but had to add shipping address before I could change color. Anybody out there use magic bands on a split stay? Do they give you different bands for each resort?

    Update: I just called WDW and they told me that I will be able to customize the colors of my MBs and start selecting FP+s when I am 60 days, or less, of my arrival date.

    Today I am 77 days away, so I will let you know in 17 days if this is true or not...

    Cheers, Mariano

    We were able to choose colors about 30 days out. I noticed at check in that people who had not ordered their bands in advance received grey.

    We are 82 days out and I haven't heard anything about our bands yet. When did you get yours? We are going in January also.

    I ordered mine today. I did have some trouble getting the color, kept going back to grey, till I erased my name then re-typed it. It is now showing the color I want. Can't wait to get it.

    OOhhhh! That sounds fun. I didn't know they had covers and accessories for them. Is that at the parks? Or online? I'm worried about them being too big for me as I have really small wrists. Are they sizeable?
