Disney.com site access

Postby ajp » Thu Dec 27, 2007 9:40 am

Is anyone else having trouble getting onto Disney.com? Everytime I try to access something on the site, it keeps flicking me back to the Australian site. I am assuming that it's a traffic thing that they're minimising the load on the servers, but am interested if others have experienced it as well (to test my theory).

We've since worked out a way to get there - through the international sites link on the Australian site. But this is the only way at present.

Yep - same thing happened to me. They did this the week the new Disney.com website opened. I hope it reverts back to normal in the next few days, I don't like the Australian site one bit!

As you say, you can get through via the international sites page but it is a pain in the butt...

I do remember that happening the week of the launch. All is OK now, we can get straight to it no problems. In the famous words of Ham, "shows over folks, back to your lives"

(hey cool, I have "3 Bs" now)

On the bottom of the Australian site, select the International Sites option, then from the list that is presented select USA and that takes you to the main Disney site. From there, shop away.

I don't know if anyone else is experiencing this but it's now worse. I can't access disney.com at all, I can't access the international sites at the bottom of the Australian page, and when I use the disneyland.com and try and sneak though into the shopping or other areas, it flips me straight back to the Australian page. I'm finding this extremely frustrating. If anyone has any hints, I'm open to any suggestion. :x

I am unable to get to Disney.com as well. I am having the same problems as you.
