Casino on Queen Victoria

[rosevew]

If I visit the slots on QV am I able to charge slot spend to my room with my stateroom card? If so, what happens when I finish playing, do I go to the cashiers to get paid out or does it go back on to my onboard account? If so, how do I actually get my winnings, if I have any? I'm used to the medallion system on Princess but not Cunard ways

Assuming its the same as Queen Anne and QM2 - you can charge to your room. You cash out from the machine back to your casino account. However, to recieve winnings you'll need to go to the cage with your cruise card. It's always been given to me in cash and I've deposited that into my onboard account at the purser's desk.

So if I have OBC in my shipboard account, presumably it will use that rather than charge my credit card?

My understanding is OBC is not usable in the casino, so no it would be a charge onto your card

Correct, and not useable in the medical centre either, as I found out last year!

You can't use OBC for casino

Fact (have you tried) or assumption (because it says so)? Other lines say the same but it is usable in the casino.

As a regular casino user, I can categorically state, that OBC's CANNOT be used in the casino. For a start, it's not run by Cunard, it's franchised out so the casino has no access to your on board account.

 

Either you use cash or you charge to your room. Your choice, but nothing else.

Thank you. So, if it's charged to your room does it not come off credit that's in your folio? On Princess (casino franchised out) when you charge to your room, it takes it from your OBC - seems odd why it works like that on some in the Carnival fleet and not others.

It's a separate charge.
