I have never done anything with II before yet have seen AC mentioned on Tug before. I *think* I just used one....please tell me I did this right....

I had the one for various places before early February, and while looking after I clicked through that I saw one that actually sounded just right. I clicked, paid $259 and got a confirmation.

This is completely outside of my MVC points, yes? II just puts unused weeks into this grouping and gets $259 from a customer?

After I think I redeemed it, I see ANOTHER one in under my UNITS now, expiring in Dec and only for Orlando. How do I get 2 at one time when I've never used II before?

And again...my MVC points are safe and unused, yes?

Hi,
Yes your points are safe.
The Accommodation certificates are given somewhat randomly to get rid of excess inventory.
The one that expires in February was given out in I think July. The one that ends in December was given out this week.

HI,
You are welcome.
Always check the price of getaways against the price of Accommodation certificates just to make sure you are getting the best price.
Also, there will be tax added to the accommodation certificate price in States that require it. (tax is also added to getaways)

Whew. Ok. The AC was a much better deal....larger unit and about $100 less. Good advice that I will take care of first next time.
