This must be my issue. I originally tried to purchase 1 $25 and 1 $50 and that didn't work. So, I changed it to 1 $100. That doesn't work either. Lame.

NCbmwmom Posted March 22, 2016 #29 Share Posted March 22, 2016 Thanks for the heads up! Can I use these onboard, or just online? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dinette Posted March 22, 2016 #30 Share Posted March 22, 2016 I called security Sunday and he said it was a security program and roll wait 48 hours-72...I only tried because of the special $15 off and it worked after going through 3 more security screens/ calls via PayPal.

firemanbobswife Posted March 22, 2016 #33 Share Posted March 22, 2016 (edited) I kept getting errors too. Tried numerous times to check out. Lo and behold it finally took but I had no idea until I just got the email. It was about 15 minutes later after I had given up. Woo hoo. Thanks! I was lucky enough to get the previous offer because of here too. Edited March 22, 2016 by firemanbobswife Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JaniceB Posted March 22, 2016 #34 Share Posted March 22, 2016 (edited) Thank you got mine 25 and 75, but after thinking about it I should have bought the $100 card since paypal credit has 6 mo no interest. How do we use them, just take the email to the ship? Edited March 22, 2016 by JaniceB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Irina555 Posted March 22, 2016 #35 Share Posted March 22, 2016 Thank you!!! It worked! Will someone please explain how to use these? Can I apply those to my account online, or will I have to go see guest services once on board? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can I apply those to my account online, or will I have to go see guest services once on board? You can use them as payment for the cruise or apply them at check in, Guest Services, or at the self service kiosks onboard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cruising maniac Posted March 22, 2016 #37 Share Posted March 22, 2016 Thanks for the heads up on this deal. I had the $25 sent by e-mail but screwed up on the $50 and had that one mailed for $2.99. I sent them an e-mail and told them to e-mail if they can. We'll see but that should be a heads up to others to be careful about the e-mail/ regular mail thing.

RCmommy Posted March 22, 2016 #38 Share Posted March 22, 2016 Bought them last time with no issue. Getting a payment processing error this time. Oh well I'll keep trying. Thanks again op. Do you happen to have a Canadian paypal account? I do and I have not been able to find anywhere to purchase Carnival gift cards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MMPERRY2006 Posted March 22, 2016 #39 Share Posted March 22, 2016 (edited) Woo hoo! Chefs Table here I come! Thank you for sharing! :D Anyone know the turnaround time to receive the email? Also, is there an expiration date? Edited March 22, 2016 by MMPERRY2006 . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MaineBirdBrain Posted March 22, 2016 #40 Share Posted March 22, 2016 Thank you for the heads up. I purchased the $75 as instructed. Says it is pending and I need to check email. Can't do that until I get home. This was an impulsive purchase on my part. I trust it will all work out fine. Won't know for sure until I get home. My OCD hurts right now. :-D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

plane2port Posted March 22, 2016 #43 Share Posted March 22, 2016 I just ordered a $100 physical gift card using the code. Got $15 off, but $2.99 shipping. That's ok! But it's still charging PayPal 102.99, instead of the $$87.99 that is listed on the ebay invoice. Strange! I have put in a request to cancel the order, which is with gift card mall. Hope it works out! I have screen shots in any case. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fuddrules Posted March 22, 2016 #44 Share Posted March 22, 2016 (edited) Did you find a work around? This must be my issue. I originally tried to purchase 1 $25 and 1 $50 and that didn't work. So, I changed it to 1 $100. That doesn't work either. Lame. I'm not sure there is a work around other than creating another (or using a secondary) ebay account. My primary account didn't work last time but my secondary one did. There was no work around to the primary account. This time my primary account worked. Now, I just don't know what I'm going to do with all of the OBC? I have a difficult time passing on these deals even though I don't really need it :D Also, if you use Chase Ink to pay, you get 5X UR points. Also you earn Ebay bucks on the purchase Also you may get a rebate from using ebates. Edited March 22, 2016 by fuddrules Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RecoveryDude Posted March 22, 2016 #45 Share Posted March 22, 2016 Thanks! I didn't get it last time, too late ... but got the $100 for $85! Cheers! Jeff aka Recoverydude Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Katfncy Posted March 22, 2016 #46 Share Posted March 22, 2016 I've tried a lot of times and it gives me an error code each time. Not sure why it will not hook up into my paypal account. It did not take advantage of the previous offer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cmukid87 Posted March 22, 2016 #47 Share Posted March 22, 2016 Perfect. Stuff like this adds up. Saving about 15% off my cruise fare, gratuities, and onboard spending with all of these discounts. PS...if you are having trouble, you can also add one $25 to your cart and in checkout adjust it to a qty of 3. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pkrpec Posted March 22, 2016 #49 Share Posted March 22, 2016 My Paypal account says it was charged the full $100. Will that drop to $85 when it processes? My eBay statements says $85. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you open up the transaction details in paypal you'll see the total at the bottom is $15 less the full charge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
