You can book a bounce back if you are staying anywhere on property. The excluded locations apply to the future resorts where you might be staying.
when we went i saw the pamphlet and had no idea what it was about. i remember laughing and thinking "i haven't even finished paying for this holiday yet!!!".
i didn't receive any email but when i called to book my next holiday the CM told me there was an offer on file for me... dates didn't work so went with FD. honestly, for our family 5, FD is best offer. i have calculated it so many different ways but FD always saves the most $$ for us.
what boards are talking about it?There are 2 good threads on the resort discount boards talking about this bounceback promo. It is pretty rare to get the offer emailed right now. They did that a few years ago , but there are very few reports of emails now. Most people are finding the offer in the resort info brochures as stated above. Or just calling the number (8844) from their room phone to inquire about the current offer. You never have to wait for an invitation or to receive the offer via email or in your room. If you are currently a Disney resort guest on a paid reservation, you are eligible to book a bounceback offer. Just call!
they have been sending pin codes to emails for dree dining or room discounts for yearsjust because none of you seemed to receive the emails does not mean they aren't sent. I can verify that I have in fact, received bounceback emails just this past July. So, I encourage people to check their email as well as their rooms.
thats funny we were at AKL in december and the BB was cheaper for next year for us toJust checked out of AKL today. The BounceBack pamphlet was quite visible on the desk in my room. The pamphlet was longer than other papers in the folder. I didn't get any email. The quote I received for next August was $300 cheaper than what I paid this year. My kids are already looking forward to go back "home home", as called by my kids.

It is not a problem unless the dates you want to change to are not in inventory for that offer. Then out is a problem. I wanted to reduce the number of nights and had to book a different category becuase my standard view was not available for the length of stay I wanted.When I made the reservations, I asked about the possibility to f changed the dates (only by a few days in either direction) in the future. Ithd cast member said that wouldn't be a problem.
As far as being refundable, I would guess the policy would be the same as any Disney reservation. That is, you're $200 down payment is refundable up until 30 days before. Definitley double check this though.
