Hi all been reading these forums for a few weeks now, this is my first post.Unlike most people i want tickets that i print at home or a voucher, as i go middle of the night thurs/fri morning and think im cutting it fine, if i miss the postman.I have found a good deal on universal tickets but they dont take maestro (our debit card) and then i found some great 7 day MYW tix again they dont take our debit card. I need some great deals to print out asap!!!Im sure you guys can help.

Haven't you got a friend that can put it on a Visa/Mastercard and then you pay them in cash?

True, sorry I forgot about the ID bit. Yes they do sometimes ask to see the card.

I was going to suggest registering for one of the prepaid dollar travel cards but this would take 5-7 days......Looks like you will have to buy the tickets when you arrive?

Try AttractionTix they do print out at home tickets. As for your debit card, I would ring AttractionTix, but I think if you don't have the credit card it just means you need to go to the desk to pick them up rather than swiping your card in a machine.


Can I just ask - are you just after Universal Tickets, because the best price on these is with Universal.com (http://secure.universalstudios.com/webstore/shop/ViewItems.aspx?Merchant=UOMainOnline&CategoryGroupExternalID=UOMainC&CategoryExternalID=UOTPTLiveC) nd I think they are print out at home tickets. I don't even think you exchange them, I think you just scan your printout at the turnstile.

For your 7 day Magic Your Way, Mapleleaf (http://www.mapleleaftickets.com/faq.htm#Shipping%20and%20Returns)will deliver real tickets to your hotel or you can collect from Kissimmee, or do you mean 7 day premium - I don't know of anywhere that does Magic Your Way print at home vouchers - If you've found somewhere can you let me know so I can add it to the list of ticket vendors, as it would be useful to know.

I just want to agree with what Bev said.

Nov last year i got my tickets for Universal through their site and done print at home. You dont need to show ID at the gate but if you did you could take your passport, the ticket will have your name on it.

It printed on A4, yes i bit bigger but we just folded them up and popped them in my bag and the bar code was scanned at the gate like Bev said.

Sorry to ask but have you actually tried putting in your card details in and had them rejected because i used my Visa Electron card to pay Dreams unlimited. It wasnt listed as a payment option so i just tried it as a Visa and it worked fine and no charges.

Hi

I cant speak for the OP but before i got my CC i couldnt use my debit card either (maestro) , it wasnt a Visa debit card. My bank doesnt issue Visa debit cards, the OP could be the same.

I used my dads Visa debit card for my Universal tickets until a CC came through for me. I decided to apply for one after all the hassle i had :confused2

Im not sure why some banks issue Visa Debit Cards and other just normal switch/meastro debit cards.
