Casino Program Changes


Recommended Posts

On our March Granduer cruise there were machines that always gave double points. They had signs on them. So, there were morning double points, late night double point and on some machines always double points.

 

Thanks for the info.

Does that mean those machines get quadruple points during double point hours then:confused: easy way to rack up Mickey Mouse points if they do:D

Yes! That's the cruise ship I was on. That's what I was saying.

 

Forgot about the 9-11 as I played in the afternoon

The reason I Asked you was you said you played 2-3 hours in the Evening (no nightlife) most ships have evening double points hours which was why I thought you may have fallen in those hours. Now you are saying you played in the afternoon.:confused:

I got a CR rate + free tax & port fees + 1000. Cruise cert. I think the cert is combinable with just about anything.

Agree from what I Have heard you are correct that the CR rate and cert are combinable. However not been able to get any free tax or port fees?

I have no idea. When I asked my "real" point balance I was told that "the system runs behind". I gave up after earning the $500 certificate but for all I know I was only a few points away from the $750 certificate.

I will get the photo developed of the cruise thing. It specifically says 2400=500. 3600= 750.

You do know it changed recently?

It's not immaturity. It's the fact your calling out something that literally was just an early call.

 

I inserted my card. Saw 2400 or whatever and went looking for the host. Not there.

 

I have OCD and plan to the T. I had a fully paid Carnival cruise booked for July with my sister. I called and cancelled that while waiting for host. (lost deposit).

Now my anxiety kicks in. Crap. I have nothing planned. How does this cert work. What do I do. I'll post on cruise critic. It was the wrong amount. I made a post before I knew the amount. My bad.

 

What's immature is that you can't stop and think for a second. That one, you're out of line. People make mistakes. I came to this post because that's what I was told. Two, you can't stop to think oh crap I might be wrong. Three, your judgemental tone as if to say I'm wrong. Not possible.

 

Quite frankly, you're acting like a [emoji533] and you'll get a [emoji533] response.

Yikes! :eek: Pretty certain he did not mean it in that way. He usually isn't wrong...or will ask others if they know differently. Have recieved a lot of great advice from many here including Pompey. It may sometimes appear a bit harsh when reading. but I don't believe it was not written in that tone. Reading versus hearing can come across completely different. Trust me - be there done that. :o

Thank you 20plus :)

All here to help each other, we are all guilty of misinterpretation sometimes, myself included.

I like to work with facts and data from an OP to provide factual information, sometimes OP and previous posts can contradict each other (or themselves);)

Thank goodness for emoticons :D

 

I did like that I was called an Aubergine twice:eek:, we had a good chuckle.

 

Hopefully we will all receive information on this elusive New Program sometime soon.

 

Happy Days!

I definitely realized that after that fact. But at that point was past aggravating because everything I said was wrong. Double points are listed. Yes they are. There was a sign on the machine. Then someone writes. They don't say what machines just a time. No incorrect I saw the signs. Someone else writes they were on the same ship and saw the signs. Then they write back it must of changed. No shet!! That's what I said.

 

But water under the bridge. I learned a lot by reading and trying not to put a tone to the text

All good

Healthy debate, and if I am wrong I will admit it:)

 

You will learn quickly that CR related topics are quite passionate as a lot of us have "invested" a lot of time and money into the CR VIP program over the years and are dumbfounded really how the rollout of this New Program has been handled.

We no change is coming, but just don't know when or what is coming with 100% credibility.

 

Once there is 100% transparency on the Real point system and the New tier levels all will be peachy And that is a peach;)

 

Happy Days!

stleda, did you by any chance post a picture of certificate? I thought I saw on a prior page you were going to post a picture? thanks

 

 

I was going to but...then I was informed not to because it has my offer code and certificate number on it.

Isn't that information only on one side of the certificate? I do not think the other side with the details has that information?

Sorry 1 more question how much did you lose just on your slot play? I got confused because I think you said you also played roulette?

Your offer code and cert number are on one side, no need for others to see that side and the sailings, are on the other side which can be posted.

Good evening

Here is one of many we have received from a while back, out of date and already used for credit.

Back shows the $750 and room type

Front shows offer for two

Printed on very nice glossy paper, no expense spared;)

Happy Days!

We used the $750 off of a future cruise balance:D instead of taking one of the many options listed

Would be nice to see a recent one.

Many more 7 night options agreed:D

But we still took the $750 and used for another already booked cruise

 

I am sure you can find something to use the $750 on before 9/1/16

 

Edit: Number 2 T&C's highlights to everyone NOT combinable with BOGO offers or any C&A offers

And Number 7 highlights the fact non refundable or transferable, so useless if on eBay for sale :)

They must all be different as mine that I received on the Indy is different then the above one, I can't use it so it was pretty much useless to me with having to use it by September 1.

 

The new program kind of sucks - I only just got into the VIP program just before they announced there would be changes so I was able to use one rebate and then they cancelled those.

 

On the bright side they still seem to be offering good discounts for casino fares, so that helps.

 

I really wanted to go on the golf event cruise in October but they said the event was sold out.
