Our contract loaded into our account(new member) last night, so I reached out to chat about points loading and got told several weeks…. Any tips/strategies on which option or magic words to try?
I waited until 4 pm eastern time the day after… Just said I have a trip I’m wanting to book, but I didn’t see points in my account yet. They added them after “looking into it.”Our contract loaded into our account(new member) last night, so I reached out to chat about points loading and got told several weeks….

Got it! I’ll try again after the early games today then.I waited until 4 pm eastern time the day after… Just said I have a trip I’m wanting to book, but I didn’t see points in my account yet. They added them after “looking into it.”
Also, if your name means what I think, ZT needs to be in the HOF already
I got the same response this morning and then I said, "a friend of mine [literally meaning someone on this board just got their points yesterday after receiving their new membership number the day before." The response was: "I'll put the request in. Check your dashboard in another hour. If you don't see it, call member services on Wednesday." So, yes, to echo the sentiments of the other poster, try again with another CM.Our contract loaded into our account(new member) last night, so I reached out to chat about points loading and got told several weeks….

This is interesting. I thought new memberships took longer than existing memberships. But we closed on the same day same title company, both Marcelo, and I'm still waiting on contract to show on the website. Did you call someone to get it loaded so fast?Home Resort: Riviera Resort

I am not 100% sure when the contract was added as it was not there on the morning of 11/23 but was yesterday, so it was added at some point. I don’t need the points right away and will most likely be banking them so can wait for them to load.
That's a level of patience I was unable to achieve. I had my first contract a couple of years ago go into ROFR (May I believe) with a delayed closing after October 12th. Cleared ROFR in June, but couldn't make it past July and bought direct. Ate the deposit, but was just too antsy to start making reservations, and October was forever away.Home Resort: AKV

I was going to wait it out, but the annual hiatus for loading (or whatever they call it) is starting soon and I wanted my points before that date. So, I got the points loaded via chat today with no problems.

To get the contract showing on the account, no. I was expecting another week or so. We got it on Friday evening (day after thanksgiving). I chatted with member services the next morning and they loaded the points for me. Hopefully yours comes soon!This is interesting. I thought new memberships took longer than existing memberships.

First contract! Hopefully the rest goes smoothly- there was a delay in the closing documents due to title company losing power for hurricane.
It would still show up since you are the owner of both. What you might want to do though is contact MA and make sure they have your current membership number so it doesn’t get put into a new one.
However, all That you own shows up on the same dashboard in your account. I have three memberships and I still see them all in the same DVC online account.

No luck adding points via chat. I was told to check with title company to make sure they submitted. Of course they submitted the contract is showing on my account.
