Same as the General Public but the arrival window is August 14 rather than August 23rd, so they get some extra days

I called this morning. Nothing is available for the Visa offer.

They are really putting the screws to families with more than 4 people. I just did a search for our family of 5, for 8 nights starting on 11/26 and the best offer I could come up with was over $8,000. Yeah, no. Saw on their website that between Pop Century and Caribbean Beach that they had over 3000 bookings in the last 24 hours. Basically all I could find was club level at one of the Deluxes.
POR Riverside has always been our favorite moderate, pulling that out of the mix pretty much dooms any chances we'd have of going down there with this offer. As much as I'd love to, no way our budget can handle Deluxe accomodations, so we are pretty much eliminated.

In years past, we have gotten the free dining offer during Thanksgiving week at POP, even booking it late afternoon on the first day, but not this time. We already have a reservation, but now we are investigating other vacations since we didn't get the usual offer. I was even contemplating going to WDW for my birthday next year but not anymore. We'll miss you, WDW, but after 35 years of visits, it's time to say good-bye to this company.

Availability is very volatile and changes by the minute in the first days of Free Dining. Best advice is keep trying!
We were up at 4:30 am making adjustments yesterday and watched the rooms get scarfed up, it was wild!

First -I have had the Disney Visa since day one. We have always got the heads up and first chance at booking these offers- NOT THIS TIME. I didn't even get the email until 11:24am. Started calling - 162 times before I got through -then to find out all the room were taken- So very disappointed. Wonder if more rooms be added? and How will I KNOW??

Exactly, not that it means anything, but my card also says Day 1 - Charter Cardmember.
As you stated, I'm used to seeing the Disney offer get released on say Thursday, with the notation that this offer will be expanded to the general public on Monday, usually giving DV card members a 3 day pre-booking window. As you said, I got the DV email after it was already open to the GP rendering it meaningless. Absolutely nothing affordable to us at the moment under this offer.

I don't even think I got an email. We thought of going but after I read this post and called I can't afford what's left. Thought having the Disney Reward card had an advantage? Guess not.

We have a family of 8 and when we went for spring break was more economical to get 2 standards adjoining rooms than to try for the larger suites. We ended up at Coronado Springs.

I was able to apply the discount to my existing reservation at the Pop Century. I am paying the difference between the counter service offered and the Disney Dining I bought.
The savings for my family of 4 is $700. $100 a day....
It's better than the price I'm paying when I booked the trip. Happy dance!!!!

Anyone else as disappointed as I am in the availability of this offer and the discounted rooms? Nothing available for us the weeks we wanted to go in Sept and Oct. And the prices were twice the price of what we paid at the same time last year. Ridiculous! This is supposed to attract people to coming down? Why do they even offer these "discounts" if there is not going to be even enough to get past the first day it comes out? The ads make you think that anyone that tries to make a reservation during this time will get these offers. When they say they are limited, they aren't kidding. REALLY LIMITED. I probably won't pay any attention to these offers again. I'm disgusted. We finally got a room for October but it wasn't with any of these discounts and the rooms, period, were hard to get.

What is more economical is a single room in the Alligator Bayou section or POR-Riverside. But I agree, getting two adjoining rooms at a value resort is most likely a lot more economical than having to go the Deluxe route. Either way, paying for an extra room I don't really want, or having to pay for a level of accomodation that I don't really need.
More like lose-lose than win-win.
