For Princess, the current form on their website says it is combinable with other OBC offers .... but the current form on their website is also dated 2020. On our recent cruise with P&O Aust. I was knocked back on my Military benefit, only allowed one or the other. Disappointed Their different things, being a share holder should not affect a service benefit.

Rare arxcards Posted November 1, 2023 #354 Share Posted November 1, 2023 Within 2 weeks wasn't a challenge for Princess to apply the OBC. Requested by email on Sat 21st October. Applied today (1st November), more than happy, but I am still not using the extra $50 on Alfredo's. Carnival was a different story when it came to the OBC on our boxing day cruise. I emailed the correct address on 26th October at 1:30am US time. The credit was applied on 26th October 9:20am US time. Awesome!! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's going to make a lot of people very happy. Note also, I believe the Military Benefit is refundable if not used, where the shareholder benefit is not. Not sure because I always spent it.😂 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very odd that Carnival Australia doesn't do Carnival. 🤔 I sent them the email thinking it was the right address, but scored an indignant response (they could have just forwarded to the correct email).

Rare Ozwoody Posted November 2, 2023 #372 Share Posted November 2, 2023 Hopefully this is not OT, but keep hearing people saying cashing out non refundable OBC in the casino. How does this work, it would seem a gamble to me. Obviously I'm not a gambler.😬 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
