waggie Posted December 18, 2011 #1 Share Posted December 18, 2011 I have read several threads regarding this subject, but would be grateful for a recent/current response: If I buy myself some obc can I then withdraw that in cash to use whilst ashore /pay for private excursions?If so, what are Celebrity's charges for doing the transaction? Many thanks, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LunaSeaRetreat Posted December 18, 2011 #2 Share Posted December 18, 2011 I didn't buy it myself, but assume that yours would be refundable as well. I had quite a bit on OBC from various sources. Toward the end of the trip I went to customer service to ask about my options. After checking he found that two were refundable and handed me the cash. No charge, I just had to sign for it. This cruise ended on December 12. Cynthia Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaptData Posted December 18, 2011 #3 Share Posted December 18, 2011 If it is refundable (which means you would get it back you if do not spend it) then this would be yours to get anytime. If it is non-refundable (from the cruise line for example ($100.00) then you can only use it on board then they will not give it to you. This type you must use only on board. This included some OBC from TA's too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
waggie Posted December 18, 2011 Author #4 Share Posted December 18, 2011 Thank you both - I was assured that this would be the refundable type of obc -as usual CC readers are quick to respond!:) I leave in 2 weeks, so will post the result when I return, in case anyone wants to know the outcome.

mcrcruiser Posted December 18, 2011 #5 Share Posted December 18, 2011 Other than OBCs we have cashed a personal check on board & of course travelers checks are redemable as well .After all they have your credit card as backup;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Orator Posted December 18, 2011 #6 Share Posted December 18, 2011 You can turn your extra OBC into cash in the Casino. There is a 3% charge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
