Brazilian_sailor Posted December 27, 2014 #1 Share Posted December 27, 2014 It still not clear to me if the text and voice messages (between members of the same cabin) are being charged at QOS. If yes, how much is this charge? If i choose to pay for the internet service, it will be automatically included?

DEIx15x8 Posted December 28, 2014 #2 Share Posted December 28, 2014 On the 11/23 and 12/1 sailings it was being offered for free. When they do decide to charge if they stick to the current plan it will be $14.99 per person regardless of if they are in the same cabin. It is not included in the Internet package so if you have two people it will likely be cheaper (and more reliable) to just get the multi device package and use iMessages or some other land based messaging service. On both of our sailings it was incredibly unreliable, unusable the majority of the time with phone calls only ever partially working for one person so it was useless. If you do see them offering it for a fee, I would recommend not paying for it. Maybe in a year, but no way can they get so many bugs cleared up quick enough to be wort the insane price they want to charge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cybor Posted December 28, 2014 #3 Share Posted December 28, 2014 (edited) it is 14,95 for each device. You can only sent messages. Or call to guest service, restaurants, spa, kids clubs. Worked perfect on 20-27 of dec. cruise. We did not buy internet package, don't know what is included in it.

mnut24 Posted December 28, 2014 #4 Share Posted December 28, 2014 Is it $14.95 per person each day or do you just pay $14.95 once and can message for your entire trip? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even if it's paid and only for text messages , I believe I will get it. It seems they fixed the system after the November and early December sailings. I really don't need the voice messages. Text will be enough for me and my family (if it's really working though...) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You may already know this, but in case you don't, just a heads up that it's only available for apple devices (iphones, etc) and not android yet. It's supposed to be on android in the future, but no one's sure when. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brazilian_sailor Posted December 30, 2014 Author #9 Share Posted December 30, 2014 On 12/27 cruise it was free. Sent from my iPhone using Forums That's what I'm talking about. Some people say it's free while others say it's charged. I only hope text message will be available on Jan 23 sailing. If it's going to be free, it's even better!
