We just got our new magicbands and they're roundly hated in this house. They're too big! I think I'm going to solve the problem by popping the pucks out of each one, keeping them in our pockets for long range, and wear the bands we have (but have never activated because we didn't think to) from our premium package at F&W in 2015.
1. It's entirely possible those bands have dead batteries,
2. but the short range RFID should work if my read all on this is corect. I'm sorta curious to see if they make the gurgling sound they were alleged to make in 2015...
3. Anyone see an issue with this plan?
Okay, here is a question for a split stay. We have PH tickets for 7 days on our first reservation. The last reservation is for 3 days only, and our PH tickets will be covered from the first stay, since they are good for 14 days....but if we get a second set of bands for the second stay, will we have to use those bands for getting into rooms, and use the first set of bands for the tickets? Split stay stuff confuses me. Thanks in advance.
Perfect...thank you, makes it much less complicated. We want to get two bands, so we can get different colors and have two to decorate. So as long as they are active in MDE...we are good, right?Any MBs that you have/get connected to your MDE account in your name will EACH/ALL work, at all times. So, you can choose to use any of your MBs on any day of your trip.
MBs are not "connected" to individual trips or resorts.

(sorry if this has been asked, I tried searching the thread, but didn't find this question)
Our trip is 14-24 Jan. We're staying offsite for the first week, then checking into Pop on the 21st. With the customization/shipping timeframe based on the 21st, I'm worried it's cutting it close to have the bands arrive before we leave. We'd planned on using them to surprise the kids, so wanted to get them shipped. How accurate is the arrival two weeks before your check-in date?
I doubt it matters, but we're in Canada, so having them shipped to a nearby US address.
We have magic bands from a trip we took a year ago. We just booked a second trip for this coming January. Will we still get another set of magic bands?
If you want - you get a set with every onsite stay, but you can turn them down if you don't want them.
If you buy a plastic ticket for MVMCP and link it to your MDE,
1. does the plastic card become a clone of your magicbands and thus, your whole MDE account? I understand that the admission for MVMCP will be on your MDE so you can use a magicband to enter, but it's unclear to me what happens to the card.
2. Does it become a clone or would it just be "empty"?
1. Yes.
2. Up to and including the night that you use that MVMCP ticket card to enter that party, that ticket card can be/will be a clone of any of your other tickets or MBs.
After that party date, that party ticket MIGHT become useless...
-OR- it MIGHT continue to to be a clone of any of your other tickets or MBs.
I don't know if anyone has actually tried using a party ticket card (for other things) after its party date.
