The pattern I've noticed is:
Ordered MB+ early AM release, like between 1-3 AM Eastern
Didn't recieve email confirmation
Stuck on processing for longer than expected
Long pending card charges
It leads me to believe we weren't supposed to be able to order until 7 AM Eastern or something.
I ordered mine at like 2:45AM on Day 0 to order lol (July 27th). The order page thinks I ordered at 7:12AM. A few minutes ago I went from not having the magicbands assigned to us with glitched photos of the bands, to now it shows the bands being assigned to us so I feel like they are at the hotel and it's just the system that is messed up, fingers crossed!
Other MDE glitches recently included my magicband order page thinking I was going on a cruise and my Story Book dining reservation dropping two of my kids from the group (both fixed thank goodness)
