Hi there, Charlotte! Thanks so much for visiting planDisney from across the pond. I see that you're considering joining the coolest club around--
Disney Vacation Club! As we're approaching our tenth year as DVC Members, it's turned out to be a wonderful fit for our family. However, it's a big decision and comes with some financial implications, so it's good to do your homework!
I spoke with the always-helpful DVC Sales Guides about your financing question. They shared that residents of England, Northern Ireland, Scotland, and Wales cannot finance their Membership purchase through Disney Vacation Club at this time. However, you could of course obtain a loan in the UK to fund the purchase. Keep in mind that in addition to the purchase price of your contract, Members are also responsible for
Annual Dues each year. These costs go toward upkeep and maintenance of your Home Resort so it is always ship-shape when you visit!
Since Disney Vacation Club is a significant investment for many purchasers, it's a good idea to speak directly with a Guide. You can schedule an
on-demand webinar or a virtual meeting and have dedicated time to talk through all that Membership entails. The Guides will also be able to share any available incentives that may help make your DVC dreams a reality! There are many online communities on social media with tips for overseas purchasers which might be a good resource for you, too.
Charlotte, I hope this information is helpful as a starting point that will hopefully take you on a magical journey to Membership! If I can help with any other questions, please don't hesitate to
reach out directly--I did quite a bit of research before we joined DVC and I'm happy to talk through anything that can help with your decision. Thanks again for stopping by!
Stay Magical!
Susan
