Question of the Day

[david63]

When was Britannia named?

 

According to the mini quiz that I just received from P&O it was 10th March 2014 - WRONG - it was 10th March 2015

 

One would expect somebody in P&O would check their facts before creating something like this - it only took me 10 seconds to verify it on Google

No.

Well yes, I'm with David63 on this one. It's frustrating to get a question wrong when your answer is actually right, and you would expect P&O to proof read their questions.

Researching the correct answer is important, nothing more frustrating than knowing the RIGHT answer but the quizz master ignoring you.

 

A number of years ago on Oceana the question asked was what is the national bird of the USA. I answered the bald eagle which is not actually bald. Wrong answer according to the quizz master. Afterwards in private I suggested that they should check all their questions as they were moving jobs to Princess at the end of the cruise!

You would if you arrived at the port for your cruise and was told that it sailed last year!

 

It is all about attention to detail and is just another indication of P&O's current attitude that it does not matter.

Or maybe a symptom of our 'post truth' age 😉

Were there any spelling questions in that 'quizz'?

The count is now 4 they are interested 2 they are not, and 2 sitting on the fence

Perhaps the OP ought to email Paul Ludlow outlining his concerns. Good luck with that...
