Well, there have been instances where members had problems with the points system. They thought they had enough points for a certain type of accommodation or length of stay, but then found out that due to some complex rules and changes in the system, they couldn't get what they wanted. It's like a bait - and - switch situation, which is really annoying.
Some people have horror stories like unexpected high maintenance fees. They sign up thinking it's a good deal, but then the fees keep increasing year after year, putting a strain on their budget.
One horror story is about the long lines. People often wait for hours to get on a popular ride. For example, at the peak time, the line for Space Mountain can be so long that you might end up spending half of your day just waiting. It's a nightmare when you have limited time in the park.
Sure. There have been instances where the housekeeping staff didn't restock the essential items. So, guests might find no towels or toiletries after a long day at the park. It's frustrating as you expect these basic things to be taken care of. You come back tired, wanting to take a shower and relax, but there are no clean towels available.
Another story is about a new cast member who got separated from their group during a backstage tour. They wandered around for a while in the restricted areas. They were worried about getting in trouble as well as being in an unfamiliar and somewhat creepy environment. Eventually, they were found, but it was a nerve - wracking experience for them.
Yes. There are cases where workers were treated poorly by rude guests. Guests might shout at them or make unreasonable demands. And the workers are not allowed to respond in kind but have to keep smiling and be polite, which is really frustrating.
Sure. A player entered Club Tortimer and found that their character's appearance had been altered in a really strange way. It looked like some kind of bug had corrupted their saved appearance settings. They were stuck with this odd - looking character until they could figure out how to reset it.
Sure. One family went on a cruise. The ship had a norovirus outbreak. Many passengers got sick, including some of the family members. They were quarantined in their cabins for days. It was a nightmare. They couldn't enjoy the activities on the ship, and the smell of disinfectant was everywhere.
Yes, some people have reported pushy sales tactics. Salespeople would be overly aggressive in trying to get them to sign up for the vacation club. They might not give enough time to think about the decision or fully explain all the terms and conditions.
There are also issues with lost items. Some people lose their wallets, phones or even their children's favorite toys. It can be a huge headache to try and find them in such a large park. The lost and found process may not always be efficient either.
Sure. There are tales of guests getting stuck on a ride for hours. The claustrophobic feeling and not knowing when they will be rescued can be quite horror - inducing. Some people also claim to have seen 'ghosts' of old Disney characters that are no longer in use. It could be just a play of light and shadows, but it still spooked them.
