So, I know that once mf's are posted you can't make any reservations until they are paid, even if you own a December week and still have CUP points available to book.

Knowing that I want to make a reservation in the next few weeks, I went ahead and paid my mf's on Oct 25, opting out of the optional ARDA fee of $5.00.
Now my account shows that I still owe $5.00 mf's, and the detail shows ARDA fee $5.00 paid, and $152.00 of $157.00 club fee paid, and $5.00 still owed.
It also says 'Redistribute payment' next to each line item except ARDA.

I was wondering if anyone has seen this. I did call and they said it would automatically correct and the $5.00 owed would not stop me from making a reservation.
Note: I paid this as soon as I saw it posted online on OCT 25, but apparently the invoice date is Nov 1. I wonder if that's what caused this. Although last year I paid mf's on Oct 29 and invoice date was Nov 1, and it didn't do this.

I’ve seen the $5 remain owed for over 6 months. It did eventually get adjusted. Did not impact ability to make or use reservations.
 
Seen this basically every year - and the rep said their computer system will ignore the 5 bucks. It is annoying, though.
