Has anybody been able to complete the ordering process? They appeared to have a bunch of the premium bands that I wanted in stock yesterday, but every time I tried to add them, I got an error.

I mean, I'm trying to give them more money. Shouldn't they want me to do that?
I completed it last week. I got repeated error messages, so I decided to try customer service. While I was on hold, I kept trying and then suddenly it processed. Correct bands showed up a few days later. It's stupid how lucky I feel, considering the circumstances.

Unless something is going on with the website this morning and it will work later, I’m even more upset about this whole thing now. Even tho my “countdown” ran out on Monday, it says you can order up to 11 days before your trip for delivery to home. So since yesterday was only solid colors all day I was gonna wait and see if anything else popped up in the next day or two.
Now I don’t have a button to edit anymore and it shows the colors I had been using as placeholders when the custom ones didn’t work. So now one of my kids is gonna get two of the same color because I stupidly made his placeholder the same color as the one he got for the other half of my split stay, not thinking it would go thru until I completed the order myself.

Quick update - we received our bands today for our August trip. Ordered on 6/21. They shipped on 6/22. Got everything we ordered.

Love the Haunted Mansion band! It's black all around with just the purple pattern. We did get 4 luggage tags as well.

Only thing that's odd is the $30 charge hit our card that day....but it's since fallen off and hasn't returned?

And they still haven't added an image of the Haunted Mansion band to the MDE. My profile still has an empty circle.

I'm honestly rather honked off. They had Captain Marvel, Pride, and Spaceship Earth bands that I would have loved yesterday and a Vader one for my husband. Seriously, Disney, take my $20.

Ours are in the mailbox. I ordered them sometime last week. Our trip is 59 days away. Was not expecting to get them this early even with paying 10 bucks each.

Nice!

I ordered mine on 5/20 for a trip coming up on 7/4. Still no bands and my contact with customer service resulted in a "huh, we'll send this to our IT department" and still no contact back...

What are we supposed to do if one of the bands we want is available but the other isn't? There isn't a way to lock in partial orders, right? I really wanted the Castle and my boyfriend wanted Epcot, but Epcot isn't available anymore :(. So do I just bite the bullet and lock in my Castle band and get a generic band for him since Epcot is gone?
Who's paying for the trip? ;)

Thank you bee, I was finally for the first time able to select a band for all four of us and I get to the end and it wont process, this is so frustrating, should not be so hard to give Disney money, We have been trying since day one of this new process

Was able to pick everyone's out but apparently, the Spaceship Earth one is not available, even though it lets me choose it. When I attempt to complete the purchase, that single one derails the order and gets removed. That one is my band. Do I take the bullet so the four other people in my family get their bands??? I know if I wait, the others will sell out again soon. Disney, you're killing me...

I think I am going to wait until I get there, tell the front desk at check in about my experience and hopefully they do the right thing and let us go pick 4 magic bands at the resort gift shop or give us a voucher to purchase in park, this is so frustrating

ugh I'm assuming the ones I wanted have sold out already ... what a bummer. :( There's no rhyme or reason to when they re-stock, right?

Is it just me, or has the magic band side of MDE been completely down the last couple of hours? As in, the whole under construction/no access page not getting there but not being able to order.

Working for me, with 22 options available to choose from including the standard colours.
