Disney Vacation Club squeeze members for a $3 Per Point increase on purchasing one time use points

Disney Vacation Club members have received an email informing them that Disney Vacation Club are increasing the cost of one time use points by $3 per point.

This latest cash grab, effective today, February 16, means that Disney Vacation Club member, will be paying more when they require extra points to book a particular resort that is more points than they have.

When you are short on points for a particular stay, Disney Vacation Club Members can purchase one-time-use Vacation Points to complete the transaction.

This latest increase in costs for Disney Vacation Club members comes after a big price increase in December last year, when Disney Vacation Club raised prices for most Disney Vacation Club resorts with a $10 per point price increase.

The only resorts to escape the $10 increase was Disney's Old Key West Resort and Disney's Saratoga Springs Resort & Spa, which were hit with a $5 per point increase in the base price.

Here is the letter informing DVC Members of the increase.
