Now Disney is just being cruel

Not only have I gotten a couple of pin codes via mail, now, I've gotten one by e-mail too. Really? I can't use one this year. I really need one for next year.

I'm just keeping my fingers crossed that eventually I'll get one for next October. I'll be so disappointed if I don't get one next year.

I know. I got one too, but there was no way I could use it. Now next year, for sure. Here's to hoping for an even better one!

Several Pins! Wow, lucky to you..I did get one and I was able to apply it for 30% off our Resort but hoping for free dinning instead. I can't figure how they give them out and to who. This was my first one. I hope you do get one for when you can use it.

I guess Disney is cruel because we are going this October & haven't gotten a single pin code. I've only gotten a couple of pin codes in the past (none that we could use) and have booked a trip every year for the last 3 years. What am I doing wrong? Do you think that Disney keeps track of when you book and intentionaly doesn't send you out a pin code for that time? Sometimes I wonder.

Bummer. I've never gotten one before either, but I think it might be worse if I got one and I couldn't use it. Hope you get lucky and get one you CAN use!

I hadn't gotten one until I had booked and then had to cancel 3 trips in a row. Then I received 6 different pin codes.

I don't know how they issue pin codes. I know we got one in 2010, but we were planning DL that year - no pin code for that. Then in 2011 we got a couple, but we couldn't afford a trip then. We are planning for 2013, and have visited the website several times, checking for prices and stuff (even though I have to check 2012, so I can estimate 2013), so I can be prepared for the cost (we're really splurging on this trip), but obviously haven't booked yet.

I just keep hoping that I'll get one in 2013.
