Barwick Cruiser Posted December 4, 2014 #26 Share Posted December 4, 2014 We are in the same situation. We purchased a dining package. Would love to have a little more OBC so we can upgrade our drink package on board. Has anyone tried to cancel what they purchased and rebook to get the discount? That's exactly what I did...booked the 5 dinner specialty package as well as a shore excursion previously, called Celebrity today upon learning of the rebate and was given the 10% towards my onboard account. I was willing to cancel my purchases and rebook for the discount but didn't need to. Just call and I'm sure they'll be able to help you.

elkay68 Posted December 4, 2014 #27 Share Posted December 4, 2014 Nice promotion, however we are doing a crossing in 2015 and have booked a RS. I emailed celebrity and told them it would be nice if the 10% "bonus" would be applicable on OBC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

M&Dcruisers Posted December 5, 2014 #30 Share Posted December 5, 2014 Does anyone know if the 10% offer is combinable with the 15% discount for Elite Plus on Specialty restaurants? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pilot70D Posted December 5, 2014 #31 Share Posted December 5, 2014 OK, I just wanted everyone to know that we are now the official world record holders. We hold the world record for the most Celebrity promotions for which we did not qualify. It took some doing but after many years of hard work we seem to avoided virtually all promotions put out by =X=. But we need to realize that this is a good thing. If Celebrity ever instituted a promotion with no restrictions the shock of that would probably be too much for my heart. Everyone stay safe out there and enjoy that next cruise. :D;):D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EMc&DrS Posted December 5, 2014 #32 Share Posted December 5, 2014 They let you have it for a December cruise!? Good to know! I had NO luck getting it added to our Dec 20 sailing. I even mentioned I had read about it on CC being added to a Dec sailing, so the agent checked with the "resolutions dpt." and was still told, "No, cannot be applied to any sailings prior to Jan 1." So I was on hold for a total of 45 minutes and got no where. They have, however, updated their "hold" music/ads, and at the end of each quick segment, it sounds like a group of people whistle together in unison. Extremely annoying after about the second whistle!!! Sent from my iPhone using Forums mobile app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Iamthesea Posted December 5, 2014 #33 Share Posted December 5, 2014 RCCL does this! We received "rebates" in the form of OBC for booking 2 specialty reservations when we cruised with them last September. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JudithLynne Posted December 6, 2014 #34 Share Posted December 6, 2014 We are booked on a Caribbean cruise that qualifies. Yesterday, I made an online reservation for a shore excursion. I notice that many of you are calling after doing this to make sure that you got the 10% discount. Do I need to do that? Judith Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

riandei Posted December 6, 2014 #36 Share Posted December 6, 2014 I could have sworn it stated sailings AFTER jan 1 we were able to book specialty dining package for 5 nights in January with the discount thanks to the poster !!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tml Posted December 6, 2014 #37 Share Posted December 6, 2014 It was a quick phone call.... Lovely lady on the end of the line. I wasn't aware of any conditions on the offer, I never read or investigated other than what the OP posted. Customers service rep knew my sailing date she never asked me any further questions, she just stated she would apply the promo to my booking. I was surprised to read that fellow cruisers where having issues. It does concern me that I might not receive my new OBC but I'm not going to call and ask any questions......I will update the board when i get back :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AlbertaCruisers Posted December 6, 2014 #39 Share Posted December 6, 2014 Does anyone know if this applies to the upgrade portion when upgrading from the Classic package to the Premium package?

JimHam4 Posted December 6, 2014 #40 Share Posted December 6, 2014 Does anyone know if this applies to the upgrade portion when upgrading from the Classic package to the Premium package?

Ohana Travel Posted December 6, 2014 #41 Share Posted December 6, 2014 thanks for the heads up on this. on the phone now trying to get it for an excursion I already booked. apparently it depends on when you originally booked it if they can just give you the credit. mine was booked a while ago, but they let me cancel and rebook for the credit. only $50 but every little bit helps! thanks again for passing along the info Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have a several hundred dollars already. You can use obc for excursions that you book when you are actually on the ship...won't qualify for this 10% promo. If you pre-book an excursion you have to pay at the time of booking Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AlbertaCruisers Posted December 6, 2014 #46 Share Posted December 6, 2014 I called again today. The lady I spoke to checked with her supervisor and told me that the 10% deal does not apply to the premium upgrade if you received the classic package for free as part of a deal. Congrats to anyone that was able to get the 10% on the upgrade from the 123Go classic to premium!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phillygirl2400 Posted December 6, 2014 #47 Share Posted December 6, 2014 I called today to book excursions and upgrade free 123 bev with the 10%. The captain's club rep didn't know anything about it. However, she checked with her supervisor on each item and booked the excursions and the upgrade with the discount. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lisiamc Posted December 6, 2014 #48 Share Posted December 6, 2014 Got notified that between 12/1 and 12/15 you can pay for shore excursions, specialty restaurants and/or drink packages and receive 10% ship's credit when boarding. We are going on a TA in April 2015 and do not get 1-2-3 go offers. But with this applied to the deluxe drink package we save over $180.Good deal;) Thanks for mentioning this! We never got an email, but have now bought a drinks package and been given the on board credit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phillygirl2400 Posted December 6, 2014 #49 Share Posted December 6, 2014 Does anyone have a working link for the offer? The earlier posted link is not working. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
divechick Posted December 7, 2014 #50 Share Posted December 7, 2014 Well I hope that it actually worked for me. Just got off the phone with a rep that barely spoke English and after what seemed like forever on hold he came back on the line and stated there was no need to cancel and rebook, that he had submitted a request. We will see what happens once on board in Feb we already have significant amount of OBC from TA but one can never have enough OBC.:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
