Murphy's Law has struck...

[redfive13]

I know some of you will get a kick out of this...

I (like many, but not all) have been waiting for one of the elusive pin code offers to arrive at my doorstep.

I opened my mailbox and... THERE IT WAS!!!!

Finally, it's here...

but, but... sadly enough it was for the family who owned my house previously. AAAGGGHHHH!!!!

That so frustrating, it was almost comical.

I have never heard of a Universal Pincode, what have you signed up for through them to receive one of these? I am planning on dedicating more of my vacation money towards universal in the future, and a pin code would be nice.

My life is a freakin' melody of Murphy's Law strikes these days. I won't even bore you with the awful details of it all. Curse you, Mr. Murphy! :fork:

Aww, I'm sorry - that is REALLY frustrating! You know what you should do is call Disney. Tell them you got a pin code and would like to plan a trip with it. Tell them it came to your address but with a different name on it, and can you still book it.

They might let you - you never know. Especially if they know that you are actually going to book a trip with it. If you're using the address that the card came to, and it's your billing address, I'd say that's proof that it really came to your house. It's not like you took a friends card from another state or something like that. Give it a shot.

Any time I get a PIN code from Disney, it's at a time when I can't go.

I got this one, but it doesn't fit for my vacation schedule this year. We're going for 6 nights @ WDW followed by 4 nights in USO in mid-October.

So far this year I've gotten one code for USO (the above mentioned code) and two codes for WDW that also aren't in my time-frame.

I'm hoping to get more in the next few months.
