At least you should be getting back $124.84. The math doesn't add up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m going to have to show you two screen shots to see the full picture. This was early in the cruise. Important part here is the amount of the credits because I cut that off on my last night screenshot. Here is the one I took on the last night of the cruise. I left $155 OBC on the table. And since GS told me they would use non- refundable first and the refundable adds up to about $150, I left that money on the table expecting to get $150 in a check. Otherwise I would’ve just bought some junk. Here is what they sent me this morning. It looks like they’re saying I’m forfeiting $25 in non-refundable OBC and 104 is being submitted to finance..I assume my refund. And I guess another $25 came out somewhere. HOW did you get $200 shareholder credit??!! It is $100 for a 7 day cruise! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe very close to the only person under 70. It may be the last meal for some of them. You better be extra nice. You are young enough to be their child.

It shows you got 200 Shareholder benefit when it should have only been 100 plus your Military credit. Shareholder is 100 for a 7 day cruise.........the mislabeling of your credits is troubling at best...............

The only positive for me was the door opening when I got to the room. I don’t think that outweighs having to shout out my room number all day. They could make it better by installing the things you touch your medallion on in the bars. But for right now I’m a no. 5 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah it all came out to the right number so it didn’t seem like anything worth complaining about on the ship. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s just something some cruise lines say to cover up the fact that they don’t want you drinking the alcohol paid for a a higher price in Texas on your drink package. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

beshears Posted November 21, 2023 #1925 Share Posted November 21, 2023 Caribill, thank you for mentioning once again about the so called "formal nights," even though they or one of them was called dress to impress, which is fine with me too.
