A recent guest report at Walt Disney World Resort highlights a troubling experience that has left one family feeling frustrated and disillusioned with their vacation. According to the guest, the incident unfolded at the resort’s pool area, where the family’s wallets were stolen during their visit. Despite the family’s efforts to report the theft and seek assistance, the aftermath revealed an overall lack of support from resort staff and an unsatisfactory resolution to their complaints.Credit: DisneyWallet Theft at the PoolThe incident occurred when the guest, along with her husband and brother, went to enjoy the pool. According to the report, after purchasing drinks, her brother placed their wallets into her bag for safekeeping. After a brief swim and relaxation period of around 20 to 30 minutes, they returned to their belongings only to find that both her brother’s wallet and her husband’s wallet were missing.Upon notifying someone at the pool, the family was reportedly told, “That’s weird. That’s NEVER happened before,” and they were directed to the front desk. However, the response from staff members was similarly indifferent, with everyone repeating the same phrase about how such an incident had never occurred before.Failed Response and Disregard for Guests’ ConcernsIn an attempt to address the situation, the guest’s brother repeatedly requested that the Sheriff’s Department be called to file a police report. However, staff reportedly brushed off the request, leaving the family feeling further dismissed. The guest recounts, “We continue to be locked in this room. No one asks where we were sitting, just says they’ll check the garbage cans.” Despite the theft and their clear frustration, the family was left to wait for hours in a room without any clear resolution.Eventually, the sheriff arrived and informed the family that they could file a police report online, an approach that only added to their growing discontent.Credit: DisneyDisappointment with Customer ServiceAs the family continued to navigate the aftermath of the theft, they requested compensation for the inconvenience caused. They asked for a partial refund for their EPCOT tickets, noting that they had only been able to enjoy a few hours at the park due to the stress of the situation. Instead, the Duty Manager offered a second ticket for future use, valid for up to two years, which the family declined. Frustrated, they remarked, “Why would we ever want to come back after this?” The manager’s response lacked empathy, and the family continued to feel as though their concerns were not being taken seriously.This experience is part of a longer history of dissatisfaction the family has faced with Disney’s customer service. According to the guest, their DVC membership—which they’ve held for over 15 years—has been plagued by dirty rooms, poor service, and lack of attention to their complaints. “Since Covid, all we get are dirty, disgusting rooms with pubic hair and hair all over the bathrooms. And when you complain, they are rude so we’ve stopped even saying anything,” the guest shared.Credit: DisneyNo Resolution, But a RefundAfter multiple calls to DVC and Guest Services, the family received no meaningful resolution. Eventually, they managed to secure a refund for their EPCOT tickets after waiting for an hour at Disney Springs guest services. The guest expressed gratitude to Lena, a Disney employee who helped facilitate the refund, but this did little to salvage their overall experience.In their post, the guest vowed, “We will NEVER EVER come back and looking to sell our DVC membership. They know they’ve got you on the hook and paying and treat you like garbage bc you’re stuck in a contract!” Their experience highlights the ongoing challenges guests face when dealing with customer service issues at large resorts and theme parks, especially when it comes to resolving theft and dissatisfaction.Robbed at Saratoga Springs by inWaltDisneyWorldThe Need for Improved Guest SupportWhile it’s common for theme parks to experience occasional theft, the family’s report underscores a deeper issue with Disney’s response to guest complaints. It raises questions about whether Disney is doing enough to support its guests, especially those who have been loyal for years through programs like the Disney Vacation Club (DVC). As the family’s story spreads across social media, other guests are also raising concerns about their own experiences with Disney’s customer service and policies.Walt Disney World Resort has yet to make a public statement on this particular incident, but the ongoing dialogue about guest experience and customer support is sure to continue as more families voice their concerns.
