Help. I forgot to order guest certificate for 1/3 check in and Rci is closed today. Option no longer appears online.
can I call rci and order tomorrow, 1 day prior to check in? I didn’t think there was a 48 hour etc rule.

When you're that close to check-in, try calling the resort and explaining the situation. I had to do that once, and they took my payment info over the phone and issued the guest certificate there. Good luck!

Thanks. No luck for hgvc. They said it has to be done via Rci. But they said it can even be the day or check in. I’ll call Rci tomorrow.

Sorry. Guest certificates are such an outrage anyway, it's annoying.

Good to know! I always worry about what my options are if we book something cheap and last minute but it doesn't work out for us. Glad it worked out for you!!
