Will I buy any more points into a system where they exploit loopholes to their own benefit every chance they get to the detriment of the members? Absolutely not. I’m answering with my wallet which is just about the only thing Disney listens to. I won’t be buying Riviera (something we were going to look into) or any other points in the foreseeable future. The fact that some people are adding on because Disney increased the points needed for studios and 1BR’s makes me sad for those owners and angry at Disney all at the same time. I get why they’re doing it, but it’s so wrong to be put in that position as a current owner. I used to brag that DVC was the best timeshare out there in the marketplace. They’ve become no better than the rest IMO.

I still find DVC one of the better ones in terms of perks (low fee structure, quite flexible), but they have moved closer to the pack. Sadly, no reason not to. Cheers.

If folks feel like it violates their contracts, then I encourage them to discuss it with a class-action attorney (I say that sincerely). I think @brp hit it right in that it rightfully feels similar to how the airlines have debased their freq flier programs recently. Now airlines aren't contractually limited in the way Disney is so I am not as concerned. Look for those of us who want to vacation at Disney, DVC is still, by far, the most cost effective way to do so. I love the fact that instead of paying $400 for the most convenient premium hotel at Disney, instead it will cost my family $124/nt (on a fully amortized 2020 point chart basis). Considering I paid $200-240/nt to stay at POR in the years leading up to our DVC purchase - I'm feeling my family is getting a hell of a bargain.

Are you talking MF or other fees? DVC MF is going up at alarming rate.
