I called DVC to pay the $95.00 fee for my II trade into BCV in April and Disney Vacation Club Member Services said the fee is now paid at check-in. She said they had too much confusion with paying it ahead of time. She went ahead and set up our Magical Express from the airport.
 
Is that fee charged if you rent points from an owner?

No. It's just charged at the Orlando DVC's when you trade in through Interval International.
 
Good move! I've been caught in the "double pay" play and it tends to put the visit off to a poor start.
 
So...

they'll talk to you now even before you actually pay the resort fee?

I gave them my II confirmation number and verified my name and address and then they talked to me. ;)
 
This is the first I have heard of this change. This is good information to know. I actually rather pay the $95 fee upon check-in. I missed it the first time I exchanged in to DVC. It does make it expensive to trade in, $139 + $95 = $234, and if you are using a guest certificate another $39, for a total of $273.
 
Sssh, last time I traded in using II, I showed my DVC member card and she waived the $95. I will have another chance in Sept when we stay at SSR for a week.
