sandebeach Posted March 7, 2019 #26 Share Posted March 7, 2019 Last year I got an email on June 1. I had previously been told by the Casino that I had to wait for the email before I could book my free Prime cruise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do they send you a letter with a certificate, an email, or do you just call Casino Royale and book? Thanks very much!! Dan From what I was told recently you need to wait until they drop the code in your account before booking. But, in the same sentence the agent told me I could book now and then have them apply code if cruise was not paid yet. But, but, I thought you had to fully pay for any casino rate cruise immediately. So, there are my totally contradictory statements as described to me this week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MSPGuy Posted March 7, 2019 #28 Share Posted March 7, 2019 Does anyone have experience getting credit for missing points? We sailed on Allure on 12/2 and I pre-purchased $2000 in slot credit. Since the machines don't give you points for this, the Casino Host manually added 400 points to my account. I hit Prime on that cruise and all seemed well. I just checked-in for our next cruise, and I'm still shown as Choice. Called Club Royale and their point total for my Allure sailing was 400 points short. The rep said they are sending an e-mail to some team to look into it, and I had to call back in a week to see what they find. I'm not optimistic. So, does anyone have any suggestions for another way to get my points and status level corrected? Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or you can call and check. But they are telling me it will probably be mid April till they have everything finalized. So that might mean May something.

Rare Cruisegirl6 Posted March 8, 2019 Author #30 Share Posted March 8, 2019 I also was told April a new set of dates will come out. My sister/brother in law had their points on their sail and sign card but due to an issue in their stateroom they were changed, were told points will carry over to their new cards, never happened even after her mentioning a few times to the guest services and casino host, she lost those points.

If next year is the same as this year. No specific dates the specific date cruises are for the free cruises given to you via certificate onboard. For Prime members. Inside cabin. They allow you to upgrade (can't use balcony discount for upgrade) You can take any cruise up to 8 nights as long as it's not over a holiday (Casino Royale's holidays are more than Royal's) . I was given a free cruise from Club Royale because we were on the noro-virus cruise. And they said any 7 night cruise not on a holiday and not on the Harmony or Symphony Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dan The best way to find your offers is to log on at: https://www.clubroyaleoffers.com/ Once your prime/signature cruise is able to be booked, it will show up here as well. Also, I have found that the certificates you earn in the casino on individual sailings, are posted here pretty quick. The free cruise I earned on Harmony was listed on this website by the time I got home. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now she plays WoF at $5 or $7 a spin. Earns around 400 points a cruise. Points really have nothing to do with how much you win, just how much you risk. What is WoF? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't understand it but that's the way it seems to work. You lose most of the hands but when you win it can be big. Both my wife and I wound up with 4 of a kind the last cruise One time the deal had 3 of a kind my wife had the fourth the other I had 3 of a kind and the dealer had the fourth. Big money for a $5 bet. I would say sit down for half an hour with a full table and see how many points you get. We have and it sucks, that's why she went to Wheel of Fortune. You are right about you lose a lot. Winning is fun, though. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope they never require it The pairs plus and the 6 card is where the money is. If you are a little lucky (just like a slot machine) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Laura used to play $10 ante, because you make money when dealer does not open. Now she plays $10 ante, $10 pairs plus, and $5 with the dealer.

I was playing just the pairs plus and the 6 card and made 290+ points in a little over 2 hours. I started with $200 in chips and never got lower than $75. But in the past I did lose $500 when I refused to walk away, thinking my luck would change. Edited March 8, 2019 by rt1092 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd suggest asking onboard at 1st day casino open. Every ship seems to handle things individually.. thank you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
