suekay Posted June 3, 2004 #1 Share Posted June 3, 2004 Sorry - can't do a search as the facility is down, and I know this has been discussed before. Can anybody please tell me the value of the coupon? I received a UK coupon for £90 which I forwarded to RCI via Buycruises. I have just received a visa credit of £57.34 which equates to less than 64% of the coupon value. Even allowing for the currency exchange rate and a deduction to take account of Buycruises reduced commission (which I think is fair given their discounted prices) the deduction seems excessive - I'm sure it was not so much last year It may be that the US coupon was for a lesser amount in which case I will be happy with the US$106 I've been credited.

aqusis Posted June 3, 2004 #3 Share Posted June 3, 2004 $106 USD sounds about right from a $125 coupon. We always use CruiseQuick and they discount coupons 16% so a $125 coupon is worth $105. If Buycruises follows a similar commission schedule, the $106 would be right.

kimbiak Posted June 6, 2004 #4 Share Posted June 6, 2004 I'm thinking of booking a cruise on-line for the first time. I received a very good price but I have a Crown & Anchor savings certificate for $50.00 that I would like to apply to this also. When you book on-line is there a place to put the savings certificate or do you need to email them with this info?? Anybody know? Thanks, Kim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
suekay Posted June 7, 2004 Author #5 Share Posted June 7, 2004 Have already thanked Aqusis and Just4kixx in a separate posting on the "fix" when the regular boards were down.....but thanks again for info . I feel great now I know I got a good deal Kimbiak I'd email the online TA - they give a quote based on no coupon, so may revise it to take account of their reduced commission (see above) I received the coupon after I'd already booked, so it was slightly different, but the principle's the same Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
