Has someone mentioned the status match program ending? https://www.msccruisesusa.com/manage-booking/msc-voyagers-club/status-match Is it just for US passengers? So far MSC have been very unhelpful about telling us about anything let alone status matching, but maybe that’s the U.K. office? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fold Posted January 3, 2022 #478 Share Posted January 3, 2022 (edited) Submitted match request on 12/31 using Hilton Diamond (specifically, a screen shot from the card page of the Hilton website). I had no issues filling/attaching/submitting the MSC match form. I used the US site. Received confirmation just now (1/3) of Diamond level match and new Voyagers Club number. I am a brand-new customer to MSC, no past cruises or future reservations. Edited January 3, 2022 by fold 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
therealblackknight Posted January 15, 2022 #479 Share Posted January 15, 2022 Sorry if this was asked before, but in regards to the status match, do you have to do this for every cruise you do with MSC or just a one time thing? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When I submitted via Chrome, I got neither an error nor a confirmation. When I tried it again, a week later, using Edge, I got a "Submission Successful" page. Status was matched the next morning.

Support finally told me the file size I was submitting was likely too large. Once I reduced the size of my Hilton status screenshot, it went right through.

coolkid Posted February 4, 2022 #486 Share Posted February 4, 2022 I see several posts referring to phoning MSC in respect of this. Does anyone have a number that has got them free. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

soozles Posted February 6, 2022 #488 Share Posted February 6, 2022 I have platinum with carnival and I matched to gold. My husband has titanium elite with Marriott and that only matched to silver.

SadmanCruiser Posted February 7, 2022 #489 Share Posted February 7, 2022 Applied for stats match last week - RCCI Pinnacle to MSC Diamond. It only took 48 hours from submitting form to receiving status match. Pete 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Titanium should match to at least Gold. I almost submitted my Titanium, but when I saw that they considered Ambassador to be a higher status than Titanium, I went a different route. I thought I saw upthread someone who also got shafted on Titanium who re-engaged with MSC and got it moved higher up. It's true they won't do another match, but perhaps they can re-evaluate the one they did. Realistically, Titanium should be Gold or Diamond.

My husband also had some Hilton status, and he called MSC, basically said how was he supposed to know that titanium elite would be worth less than Hilton gold, and if he has multiple statuses, they should let him submit them and take the one that gives him the highest status, ended up somehow getting a supervisor, and they allows him to send in his Hilton status and he got adjusted to gold. But my husband can be quite the Karen when it comes to talking to customer service. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MechE31 Posted February 24, 2022 #494 Share Posted February 24, 2022 Just did Hilton diamond to MSC diamond. Whenever I try and login to my account now I get an error that says "You are not allowed to proceed on this site, please go to your country web site to proceed" Has anyone got that before? I could log in fine yesterday before the match. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plus she sent us an updated reservation with everything correct on it. We also got a very sweet agent. So everything is finally ironed out and we can look forward to sailing.. Thanks to all that contributed. Could someone tell me what 5 + 15% means? I submitted diamond plus on rcl which I expect is gold but idk. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For past guests, i.e., anyone who has been on an MSC Cruise or status matched to any level in the program, one of the perks is you always get 5% off of the sailing rate. Voyager Select cruises offer an additional discount on select cruises... either 5%, 10%, or 15%. To get the 5%+X%, you have to search for the cruise through the Voyager Select portal (entering your number on the main search will only give you 5%).

ukwizard Posted March 12, 2022 #497 Share Posted March 12, 2022 Just heard my status match from Hilton Diamond has been approved to MSC Diamond. UK form, and it took about a week to confirm. I used a screenshot of my online account rather than the physical Hilton card. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jkloni Posted March 12, 2022 #499 Share Posted March 12, 2022 I've read the last few pages and from what I can gather -all 3 loyalty programs we have would be MSC Gold? We are Royal Caribbean Diamond, NCL Platinum, Carnival Platinum. Does anyone recommend one over the other to submit for MSC Loyalty match? Does it matter how many points you have within that Loyalty status? Thanks, Kathy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
