No More Checks For S&S Account?

[surfjock27]

Just out of curiosity, when did they stop issuing checks under your door the last night for any cash remaining on your S&S account, and how long does it take for the check to arrive in the mail?

[adferg]

I'm not sure when they stopped, but if the remaining amount is above $5 they will mail a check within 7 days. If under $5 it will be donated to St. Judes. Your other choice is to go to guest services or a sign and sail kiosk prior to debarkation and get the remaining cash at that time.

At least a year, if not longer. I know they didn't do checks on my Sept 2013 cruise but they did on my May 2012 cruise. I never had a balance to get a check back for so I can't comment on how long the check takes. But if you do have a balance, you can usually cash it out at the kiosk before the end of the cruise.

 

Also they don't send checks at all if the amount is less than $5. They donate that to St. Jude's on your behalf.

We did the Breeze TA in November 2012, and got a check in our cabin before we debarked, then sailed the Breeze again in May 2013. That May cruise and a few others we've taken since, we've received checks in the mail, less than 2 weeks after returning home from those sailings.

It's been at least a year or so. We never had a balance either using credit cards or cash, and we cash out/close out our account after dinner or after hitting the bars or nightclub on the last night.

If memory serves me They stoped about the same time they came out with cruise cash.

I keep my OBCs just under the Gratuities amount so that they will bill the credit card for another $20 or so. I take the cash out early at the kiosk in front of Guest Services

I got off the ship last Sunday and received a check on Saturday (6 days later).

[serene56]

cash out at the kiosk located at guest services-- or go to the casino.

 

I do not like waiting for my money

If you bring your id (drivers license) to Guest Services, they will give your left-over cash on the spot.

March, April and July of this year we received refund checks in the mail after our cruise.
