I do think its doubtful that the resort will be full and you wouldn't get in. I enquired about what would happen if it was full and I was assured that Disney would work with us in finding suitable accommodation and we would definitely keep free ddp if we had to move

Those of you who are still waiting, I was told when I rang up to add an extra day to my then 'pre-registration' booking that it goes to 'confirmed booking' 330 day from your check-OUT day. I was expecting it to be the check-IN day.

However, I was also told to give it another week after that for the confirmation email as they had a back-log.

I was able to log on to MDE a few days before my confirmation email. When I logged in it showed my reservation on there. Can't remember if I tried to link with pre-reg ref number or if it automatically linked.

Confirmation for DVC resorts isn't available until 11 months before your checkout date. Until then, your booking isn't guaranteed (unless staying on points).

In that case, your confirmation should have been available on 10~14 January 2017 (give or take weekends).

I would chase up whoever you have booked with and ensure there is availability.
