i booked a room-only reservation and have a remaining balance that supposed to be paid at the time of arrival. we wanted to pay with gift cards but also want to use online check-in. can we call ahead to apply these gift cards? how early can we do this?
you can actually pay off that balance today. i’ve used disney gift cards to pay for my stays at disney resort hotels many times over the years. just call (407) 939-5722 to speak to a resort reservation specialist, they will be happy to help you!
If the payment book is all you need, then call them and get one. most automated banking payment systems won't have been told deceember 25th is different from any other day. 

the credit may not reach another account until the 27th but if you pay on time, they can't complain. if you're worried about it, pay it on the 24th. depending on the hotel, it can take 1 to 8 business days from the end of your stay for the hold to be released and your funds to become available again. you can sign up for automatic account notifications to find out immediately when your money is released: https://www.greendot.com/greendot/account/alert. once you have accepted a booking, customers will have two hours to pick up the currency that they have ordered at your location. once the two hours are up, the booking will have expired. contact your local service provider as early as possible. the decorating season is short, and our schedules tend to fill up by mid-november. the only way you can return the phones are if you are still within the remorse period. if you're past the window you will need to pay the phones off and if you don't it will go to collections and go against your credit. 1) add a comment to your reservation that it a birthday is involved. 
2) email/call the gm or concierge and let them know unfortunately it’s not possible currently. i would highly encourage you to create a feedback card in our feedback category:

when you use your curve card, curve authorises and captures the amount and then holds it until the merchant captures it from curve. in this case, it sounds like the merchant didn’t capture the amount on december 24th but instead sent an offline transaction on… if you have the ticket call nintendo customer service and they will send a new code. this has happened to me in the past and that's what i did. i've been purchasing digital cards ever since.
