Anybody ever run into issues when trying to charge the full balance of a WDW ticket onto a gift card? We wound up buying a 2 day ticket direct from WDW because it was cheaper than other 3rd parties (factoring in a 10% DGC discount).
When my DGC covered the entire amount of the transaction- it wouldn’t go through. It kept giving me this error:
"An error occurred while processing your order. Please try again later."
"There was an issue processing your Disney Gift Card. Please remove it and try adding it again."
The gift card showed a full $950+ balance on disneygiftcard.com, so I know the card was valid.
I was getting pretty frustrated, so I re-structured the transaction such that I paid a small balance ($13) with a regular credit card. That went through without a hitch.
I wonder if it’s a fraud protection thing where they want a normal CC attached if the transaction is over a certain amount…I am just going to plan on charging a small amount to my CC when I buy tickets in the future.
Normally - I would buy from
UT but it was almost $200 price difference factoring in the gift card discount.
