How do I get a carnival gift card thru Verizon Smart Rewards?

If they are enhancing the security features does that mean they had issues with them? I have over 700$ worth I'm waiting to use on my upcoming cruises..

 

 

You can call or go online to verify your balance. I have a couple and I just purchased FTTF with one and had no issues.

I purchased $1300 and paid off our April cruise. I had been hoping to buy more to cover costs/excursions on the cruise so I hope they come back. I had noticed people on these boards were asking what happens if they put them on their S&S card but don't use the whole balance. Someone said they could cash out at the casino. I was thinking this may be a problem if people were buying large amounts of them and cashing them out in the casino to get 10% FREE MONEY. Just a thought...

I was just on the Verizon site checking to see if they had them again. I had already purchased $1800 to pay off our March cruise and saved $180. They did not have them, but did have RCCL. Out of curiosity, I went under cruises and you can use points there also. I did a fake booking and it was using about 6000 points. I couldn't figure out if I was saving any money or not.

The Royal Carib gift cards have been showing as sold out almost as long as the Carnival cards have been gone all together. Neither one of them is available for purchase.

 

I think you do save by booking a cruise directly with them, but I'm not sure if you could get price drops or any of the specific terms. I just wish they would bring the gift cards back!!!

Verizon saying their is a glitch in the program for processing the eCertifictes. What was odd is this pst week on the Sunshine I took 2 eCertificates to Guest Services to apply to our account and they said they were having problems with getting them to credit and to try the next day. Next day it worked fine.

Got this reply from Verizon to my email about the security concerns re: previously purchased cards

Thank you for your email regarding Carnival Gift Cards. There should be no concerns for cards that were already purchased through us.

 

Not the most explicit, but perhaps somewhat reassuring.

I used the e certificates through Verizon rewards a few months ago to pay off our cruise. Just went back to get more and see they only offer the gift cards. Does anyone have first hand knowledge as to whether they can be applied to our sail and sign account and used towards anything....even gratuities?
