DiamondSuiteCruiser Posted December 9, 2013 #1 Share Posted December 9, 2013 Hi Cruise Critic friends - Info needed. About two weeks ago I went on to the Manage Rewards Online web site and requested some OBC for my cruise in Jan. I gave all the cruise info, requested, and printed the request page for confirmation. My question is how will I know if and when they send credit to the ship for my onboard credit? :confused: I've always called in the past and they sent a certificate for me to send to RCCL. This is the first time I've used the website request. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In addition, you can call whoever booked your cruise and request Royal's Guest Copy of your booking confirmation. This should show the OBC. Note that depending on your cruise date, the OBC may not be applied to your booking for weeks. They sometimes process requests in order of cruise date.

I will maybe give it another week and call RCCL, They gave us an OBC and I wanted to add more to it since I had points getting ready to expire. Thanks for the quick reply.

I waited until 2 weeks before my cruise and called RCCL to confirm that they had record of the OBC. They did and it magically showed up on day 2 of the cruise. It worried me at first, but now I'm glad I did it online & there was no hassle of mailing in a certificate! ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I noticed the points have been subtracted so hopefully when I call it will be all good. You just hear all kinds of stories of OBC getting lost.

KALCJ1 Posted December 10, 2013 #6 Share Posted December 10, 2013 I went online on 11/19 and requested OBC. I received a confirmation email of my request right away, but that was it. I called on 12/4 to check to see if the OBC had been applied and it had. I requested an invoice and now have it just in case. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Retired LEO Posted December 10, 2013 #7 Share Posted December 10, 2013 I've always received the email confirmation instantly, printed it out, and brought it with me just in case. Never an issue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any OBC that is applied to your booking will show up on Day 2 of your cruise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
