We actually had an AMAZING service from Disney on every trip and 2 very magical experiences with lost items.
My daughter left her brand new hat (purchased the day before at HS) in the Philarmagic theater. We noticed it right away, went back in but couldn't find the hat. Before we left MK that day, we went to Guest Services to see if the hat had turned up. I explained the situation to the CM who was very helpful, but the hat wasn't there. When he took out a piece of paper, I thought he was going to write down a number for me to call, but he actually gave us a voucher to get any hat that we wanted to replace the one that was lost! To this day, my daughter cherishes that Minnie baseball cap
In August 2011, we stayed at Pop Century for our vacation. When we left our room, both my dh and I thought that the other one had the Ipod. When we got home, after looking through all bags and luggage, we had to face the fact that we had left the Ipod in the hotel room. We didn't even try to reach Pop or Disney as we weren't exactly sure where we'd left the Ipod. We just sucked it up and bought a new one. Fast forward to the beginning of December 2011. I get an e-mail from a guy telling me he works for Disney Security (or something like that) and that they think they have my Ipod. He just asks for my postal address to send it back to me, no charge.
The thing is : my e-mail address is NOT on the Ipod, nor is my name or my husband's
They actually used some pictures of a previous WDW trip (in 2008) that WAS on the Ipod to trace us back
The next week, we got our Ipod back in the mail. This was a very unexpected and very magical moment for us and I keep telling that story as an example of the level of service you get from Disney... even after you leave!
