Universal Orlando Resort Misc Refurbs

[Hatetofly]

Wifi testing is well underway and is coming to the resort soon but I just don't know when. The actual infrastructure is in place on top of the FJ and RoTM show buildings but they are testing to see if and where signal boosters are to be placed. Thanks for the intel mike, if you get a chance in the future snag a pic :thumbs:

Just curious, but will CityWalk be in range of either FJ or ROTM to receive the wifi? Is there a plan for guest wifi while in CityWalk?

 

[Hatetofly]

No knowledge of wifi in CW.

Had my friend check his phone just now at USF. Nothing yet, but I figured it wouldn't hurt to check.

You have to buy the 10.99 cup for the freestyle machines. I tried to buy a drink at Richters and they wouldn't let me use the freestyle, I could only get the normal sodas.

sounds like they may gave got the RFID tech installed now.... meaning only cups with active chips can get refills...

It says in bold Valid day of purchase only

 

[bobwadd]

Yes, it's the Dog Fountain being refurbished . . .

The refill cups have ALWAYS said that.

 

[jtsalien]

Well that's new because I definitely used a Freestyle Machine at Richters before. Where they put the dumb sticker on it.

Yeah, this past June I refilled there multiple times.

 

[doc brown]

i bring mine back every time i come back to the park i pay enough to get in i should be able to refill them when i come back i would pay the 89 cent refill price

[King_K.]

That's one hell of a refurbishment for the Dog Fountain.

I'm with him, but for a different reason...it looks like CRAP. God damn, they look like frickin baby bottles.

someone needs to test it and see if the cup really does only work on day of purchase.

I'm sure Orlando Informer will have info on it in a day or two.

RFID chipped, 1st machine of the day you touch with it activates it. Machines will know exactly what you got from where and when for the entire day. Refills limited to every ten minutes and to the size of the cup.

So the Valid day of purchase only is true. That sucks.

one would imagine they will have some sort of set up soon for getting a new cup (or a new sticker) when you just had one the day before at a discounted price...
