Total denial of Disney control over accounts built by fraudulent entities.

AI Highlights
  • -Unauthorized account set up via fraudulent site cdn.disney.go.com; Comcast moved it to verification; Disney should keep a list of approved accounts.

An account was set up by a fraudulent website, cdn.disney.go.com. It had accessed my password lock and created a username and a password.

Comcast addressed this immediately and sent it to the right seek and verify department. Disney should have an ongoing updated list of acceptable accounts and billing creators to prevent this unauthorized account behavior and financial cost to consumers.

Loss:
$50
Cons:
  • Asking for potential cost is like asking a woman how bad was the rape

Preferred solution: Apology

User's recommendation: Be mindful and suspicious unrequested which *** appears to turn a blind eye to for profit.

Unprofessional and Disrespectful

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full
AI Highlights
  • Disney in Anaheim feels different; an older woman at the main entrance was unhelpful, and Disney should improve attitude and professionalism.

Disney in Anaheim has changed; it no longer feels the same. There is a noticeable shift in the energy.

An older woman with brown skin at the main entrance was unhelpful when we needed assistance with scanning our barcode and taking our picture. Rather than helping us, she made the situation more difficult. When we confronted her about her unhelpful attitude, she acted as if nothing had happened and implied that we were the problem. It makes you wonder why work there if it leads to such misery?

Taking all the frustration on customers who are struggling.

Not good. Dinesy needs to improve in attitude, helpfulness, and professionalism.

You had an attitude with her first by confronting her.

Guest

No misery on the employee’s part. Just stupidity on yours.

Guest

The fact that you described the person the way you did shows you are the problem. Grow up. Be respectful and you will probably get that same energy back.

Ruined my sons 1st birthday

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full
AI Highlights
  • Paid for nine lightning passes but rode nothing.
  • It was packed and staff were rude.
  • Passes require a 10-minute app booking and an hour-long wait.
Disneyland - Ruined my sons 1st birthday

The worst place in the world. We paid for nine tickets, all of them with lightning passes, and didn't even get on one ride.

Disgustingly packed, all the employees are so rude, and that's why none of them have smiles on their faces. They treat you more like prisoners than customers who bought tickets, and the lightning passes are worthless; do not buy.

With the lightning passes, you still have to make an appointment 10 minutes before you go to each ride on the app and still have to wait an hour to get on the ride. We couldn't even find Mickey or any of the other characters for the three hours that we were there.

Loss:
$1200
Pros:
  • Beautiful place
Cons:
  • Terrible customer service
  • Terrible business motto with the lightning passes and way too overcrowded

Preferred solution: Full refund

User's recommendation: Do not go there and instead go to *** or *** but if you do do not waste your money on lightning passes total garbage

You went to a theme park that average 50,000 visitors per day and have the nerve to be upset they were busy AND that others had the idea to also buy the lightning passes?!!! Disneyland generally does not give refunds, except in unique circumstances.

you definitely do not qualify for a refund. The reason you probably you probably didn't see any cast members is because it's hard to accommodate 50K people at the same time! How can you say they ruined a 1 year old's birthday? If your baby was upset it is because they were over-stimulated and you probably were acting upset and outraged.

I think if anyone ruined a one year old's birthday, it was you!

When my child was 1, I had a cookout in the backyard with friends and family and my child could not have cared less about his cake or new toys or anyone visiting. He just wanted to play with the wrapping paper!

Chao Pne

I doubt that the employees were rude. Also the park being packed it not their fault.

Since you decided to stay at the park, you are NOT ENTITLED TO a refund.

Your child is one, I doubt he care either way. If his birthday was ruined, it was probably because of YOUR behavior.

Exactly! A one year old would be just as happy at Chuck E Cheese or McDonalds!

Disneyland's high tech scan your smart phone system has done nothing but slow down entry to a crawl.

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full
AI Highlights
  • Disneyland's smartphone scanning system is slow and inefficient.
  • A person scanning phones was faster and tech hasn't improved access.

Disneyland's latest way to access the park by having a machine scan your smartphone is terribly slow and inefficient. It was a lot faster when they had a person physically scan the phones.

Technology hasn't improved anything. For one step forward they've taken 2 steps back.

User's recommendation: Not much can be done about it until Disney wakes up to reality.

Bad Disneyland experience

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full

  • Park was very crowded; long waits and limited food options.
  • Refund requested for Shirley Lang (AU$280) after two hours due to crowds.
Bad Disneyland experience
Updated by user Nov 17, 2024

I haven’t heard a thing from customer service regarding my complaint.

Original review Oct 16, 2024
I went to Disneyland with 9 family and friends on the 28th of September. We hired a car went to our hotel and legged it to Disneyland around 2pm I was shocked how packed the park was with people it was crazy and to overcrowded.

It took over and hour for one ride and we couldnt get a table to eat for food anywhere. Two of our party Robert and Jennifer Martin went to guest services and got a refund as jenny is going through chemotherapy and couldnt cope with the crowds and was tired . So then we had 8 left then after another hour my husband Russell Davies took Shirley Lang home who was sad her ride its a small world was shut for renovations. She had wanted to go on this ride since she was a young girl.

This was her first time to Disneyland but was also tired of the crowds as she is 82 . We wanted to go on the Sunday but you have the not so scary party and we couldnt afford both . We wanted to see the fireworks that night so it had to be Saturday. We now had 6 left thankfully guest services helped with some lighting lane passes and the haunted house and seats for the fireworks ( which were fabulous) so the ones who stayed did have a good Disney experience in the end .

I really do think you need to limit your numbers in the park to make it more enjoyable for all . It was a shame a few attractions and food venues were shut too . Anyway what Im asking for is a refund for Shirley Lang who only lasted two hours and only had one ride on pirates of the Caribbean so she didnt get her moneys worth. It cost $280 Australian .

I felt bad as I had talked her into going as I said it would be fun . Hopefully you can help many thanks Linda Davies

User's recommendation: Don’t go if you don’t like crowds Disney pack in to many people to make $$$$$$

Even if with special passes, the wait for rides and everything else is horrifically long. I would never go to Disney World or Disney Land. There are other parks that have smaller crowds and you won't be giving money to ultra woke and liberal Disney.

Rude staff

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full
AI Highlights
  • Staff refused ride time and accessibility; hijab-related discrimination perceived.
  • Rides were under construction or broken; panic attacks all day.
Contains 1 confidential file for company representatives

I have low blood sugar and high anxiety. The staff refused to give me time to go on the rides, which I do every year.

I showed them paperwork of my severe anxiety. They were very rude and denied accessibility. I don't know if it was racism because I wear a hijab. In addition, most of the rides were under construction or broken that day.

These included rides like Indiana Jones, Peter Pan's Flight, and Space Mountain.

I had panic attacks throughout the day. It was a horrible experience and I was a frequent guest.

Pros:
  • Nice rides
Cons:
  • Broken rides
  • Rude staff

Preferred solution: Full refund

LOL, as if registering for this gives you extra privileges. No one is going to read a bunch of paperwork from a loser.

This takes time from other people who are able to go to a theme park without creating a scene. P.S. Love your multi-moniker troll efforts.

Create new profiles to defend your position and/or have other losers come in and cape for you. This is Keisha 101...

  • Four tickets $1,180, parking $35, and $400 on food; rude service toward wife in hijab; no smoking or prayer area; security called.
Contains 1 confidential file for company representatives

Good morning I was there yesterday me and my family I purchased four tickets. It cost me $1180 plus parking of $35 plus I spent some money for $400 food and toys for my kids.

The customer service was very bad they were very rude because my wife was wearing hijab because we are Muslim. They treat us like *** and my kids. They were crying when we entered the other park and the lady she was rude to my wife and Im sure you guys have camera to check everything out. It happened at 6:31 one to the different park.

I would love to have my money back for the customer service. You guys gave us. Its not worth it to pay this much money and get that service from you guys. Another thing there is no areas for smoking.

Thats really bad and there is no area to my praying I went to pray on one of the corner, they kicked me out so you can do that here and they said were gonna call the security. I said go ahead and call them and the security came and nothing happened.

User's recommendation: Don’t go there very bad service very very rude. They have no customer service at all.
