Rare bluejay555 Posted June 12, 2017 #1 Share Posted June 12, 2017 So last week we were on the Conquest and our room steward left us bottled water and free drink coupons. When I asked where the pins were he said they didn't have any on the ship. When I tried to ask further...like did you run out? What do you mean? All I got was " we don't have any on the ship". Ooooookay? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stobe1 Posted June 12, 2017 #2 Share Posted June 12, 2017 From the way you describe it, I would deduce that they didn't have any on the ship. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Badfinger Posted June 12, 2017 #3 Share Posted June 12, 2017 From the way you describe it, I would deduce that they didn't have any on the ship. Seems they didn't have any on the ship. First world problem that should immediately be addressed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

First world problem that should immediately be addressed. Gee, you two are very helpful. But are they not on the ship because they are no longer given out? Reasonable question. I figured someone on here would be kind enough to know the answer and pass it along. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

firemanbobswife Posted June 12, 2017 #6 Share Posted June 12, 2017 Got my Platinum pin and my mom got her Gold pin on Vista in March. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bakersdozen12 Posted June 12, 2017 #7 Share Posted June 12, 2017 Did you ask for them at Guest Services? We had to when we were on the Legend last month. Guest Services did have them. Sent from my iPhone using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare bluejay555 Posted June 12, 2017 Author #8 Share Posted June 12, 2017 Thanks everyone! Sounds like our guy ran out and just didn't feel like getting more for us. Should have gone to guest services! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SadieN Posted June 12, 2017 #9 Share Posted June 12, 2017 Better to run out of pins than toilet paper! Not fun with three women in the cabin. Sent from my iPhone using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

abby1257 Posted June 12, 2017 #11 Share Posted June 12, 2017 We all (4 OF US IN 2 CABINS) GOT OUR PINS...THEY WERE IN THE ROOM WHEN WE ARRIVED ON THE SPLENDOR IN APRIL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drose716 Posted June 12, 2017 #12 Share Posted June 12, 2017 I had my first gold cruise on Sensation & my second on Splendor. I didn't get a pin in either :-( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Djptcp Posted June 12, 2017 #13 Share Posted June 12, 2017 DH and I received our pins (Platinum) on our Paradise cruise in May. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare sparks1093 Posted June 12, 2017 #14 Share Posted June 12, 2017 It would be my recommendation to anyone that doesn't have the expected pin in their cabin to go to Guest Services. Chances are good that they will have them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

luv2trvlnow Posted June 12, 2017 #16 Share Posted June 12, 2017 We were on the Conquest from April 28 to May 7. And I can tell you they do not have Gold pins on the Conquest. My husband didn't get one. While at our Meet & Mingle which included the manager of Guest Services we were told Carnival stopped giving out Gold pins over a year ago. I said that was not true. I even said the paper with your coupon for your free drink says you get a pin. They didn't believe it. They wanted us to show them the paper saying this. Of course we never saw them again. And why can't they just look at it themselves. It is not like they don't have those papers onboard. I also didn't get my Platinum pin and this was my first Platinum cruise. I went down to Guest Services and they did have the Platinum one but no Gold ones. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare shof515 Posted June 12, 2017 #17 Share Posted June 12, 2017 from facebook: John Heald Name: Jeremiah---------- Message: Last week I was on the Breeze and I did not get a gold pin. My cabin cleaner told me there was none on the ship and another crew person told me that they were never coming back! I am not the only one who is upset by this John. ------------------------------------------------------------------- I have seen a few comments like this so I thought it best that I pout a huge dollop of apology here and say that we have had some supply issues but we are not stopping them and all the ships will be stocked as soon as possible. It got me wondering though, what do you do with your gold, platinum and diamond pins? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scurvy Seadog Posted June 12, 2017 #18 Share Posted June 12, 2017 The only time I didn't receive a gold pin was this past March on the Sunshine. On the 3rd day I mentioned it to the my steward and he apologized and brought me 6 of them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ooooookay? We're gold and I made a comment to our steward that we didn't get pins. I was told they were all out of gold pins. He felt bad and gave us some platinum pins instead. I tried to refuse those, but he insisted. My guess is that there a LOT of gold cruisers out there and they can't keep up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JaniceB Posted June 12, 2017 #20 Share Posted June 12, 2017 Neither my husband or I got a pin on the Breeze in January. I totally forgot about until someone else mentioned not getting one on the Breeze. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ray98 Posted June 12, 2017 #21 Share Posted June 12, 2017 Had them 2 weeks ago on the Paradise....I waited until I got home to throw them away. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tef43 Posted June 12, 2017 #22 Share Posted June 12, 2017 Way back in the day, when such trivial stuff actually mattered to me, we did not get them on the ship. I emailed Carnival when we got back and they sent them to us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I figured someone on here would be kind enough to know the answer and pass it along. We were on the May 20th Vista and did not get pins. Wondered about that but didn't ask. I had two cabins and neither had pins. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
