Credit/debit card blocked half way through ADRs

Now, that should auto-fill when you put the first digit of the number in.

Some people don't like websites storing their card details, and websites can't just store it without asking you.

See your point but I find it far easier to add the card at the start. It has a padlock top right of the page so I consider it totally safe.

I like Suntrust's way of dealing with multi use. You let them know the exact area or city you will be in on certain dates rather than the UK bank's - oh! you'll be in USA generalisation. That way we have no trouble using the card without interruption.

Mine is stored in MDE (Profile > Contact Information) and I've never had to enter it when doing an ADR. Only thing I have to do each time is add the special diets section - that I wish they would save!

Think it's more the fact that a few companies, at the time that the expert went on BBC Breakfast News, had their sites hacked. She said if you allow a company to store card details than hackers could have access to them. It's a different scenario to getting details due to the unsecure padlock you mention.

My card is stored. I did not have to re enter it. It would make sense if WDW does the authorization once, but they didn't. I did online check in too that day so that was the first authorization, 3 adrs - card blocked by my bank account, card unblocked, 3 more adrs - card blocked again.

My bank was in contact pretty much immediately and unblocked it. I just felt i should share in case someone is looking to make a lot of adrs in the same time to be aware of potential delays.

I can't recall this happening before and we did a lot more adrs in the past.

I still managed to get all my wishlist, it wasn't issue in the end. As Geoffa pointed out "Disney check authorizations for a "shadow" each time so the bank has assumed the card is about to be attacked." - exactly what they said, unusual to have so many authorization for 0.00 so near to each other.

I previously had credit card registered and this year it's visa debit card I have stored. I wonder if this made difference? Each of the ADRS has an entry to my online account as
the date WDW ROOM ONLY 0.00 on my online statement.

It's not a big deal, just felt it's relevant to share in case it happens to someone else

That could be it. I always use a cc. I know my sister had problems when she used a debit card for US transactions once.

I have my CC linked to my account, so yes, that might explain it.
