Yes I just had an 8 cent adjustment.

 

They will just charge it to your onboard account.

 

They have to have accounting for every penny.

Not nitpicking just a business that needs to be run correctly.

Cents times thousands add up pretty quickly. :)

If it is just eight cents, that is $240 just on your sailing alone. Imagine how much that eight cents is over the course of the year.

I do however think it is just the bean counters doing what they always do.

[Desert star]

My biggest fear was that they wouldn't consider it paid in full.

Imagine the cruisers that never check the site for that information. We had a $.07 charge on our shipboard account in March. Thank goodness I had read about these surprise tiny charges on this Board so I didn't need to run down to the Pursers Desk to ask about it! :D

Is it your Ruby cruise that was adjusted??

Think it was the Alaska cruise? :confused:

After I posted I thought about it and thought Victoria was mentioned but didn't go back to check and the memory is not what it once was:confused:

Must be what happens when you become a step-grandparent. :p :p

In the pax contract it’s spelled out that any increase in taxes or fees will be added onto your booking, even after final payment.

 

On our Alaska cruise, two port fees went up on two separate dates. Both had to be paid BEFORE we could board. I wanted to fight it, until the loophole in the contract was pointed out to me.

[Sandytoes]

I don't think they should be allowed to increase the fare after the final payment has been made.

Just my 2 cents ;)..:p

We're not allowed to request it if the fare dropped 7 cents. :rolleyes:

We had this happen on our Star Princess Baltic cruise. After our final payment, we ened up with about a $0.05 balance & when I called Princess about it, I was told that the cruise could be cancelled if the computer saw that it was not paid in full after the final balance date. Normally they manually charge it to your on board account but if they make a mistake & miss it, your cruise could be cancelled. I advised them of my horror if our cruise had been cancelled for $0.05, they totally agreed but if the computer automatically cancelled it and the cruise was sold out, there would be nothing they could do for that cruise. They assured me that they would definately take care of us on another cruise, but that is not the point.

 

I now check my balance pretty well daily.

[Sierra Fox]

Is there anyway to check your balance if you booked with a TA? I can't find it anywhere on the personalizer. - SF

[melika091900]

i know i called princess and they said we have to pay it, so i did, i hope my bank isnt like what is 5 cents for ??? hahahah they are probably thinking its an error

but like someone said what if i didnt check it and it said i owed after final payment would they have cancelled me ? omg how horrible that would be..

Actually, I have even received a check from Princess after a cruise refunding some money because a tax/fee had dropped.

[goodie2shoes]

Funny - I just checked with our TA about our Alaska Cruise leaving Vancouver on the 29th, and she said that it was actually $7.27 each - in our favor. It will be in our on board account.

 

Hope you all find the same thing when you cruise.

 

Alaska, here I come!

[teemsum]

Our friend's cruise was auto-cancelled because their file was underpaid by $ 0.01

 

It sounds stupid but it happened to her !
