sail7seas Posted October 20, 2010 #27 Share Posted October 20, 2010 I just look at it this way. i will enjoy all the treats delivered to my cabin "automatly" :D :confused: I don't understand. What treats? What "automatly"? Automatically? Why would treats 'automatically' be delivered to your cabin? I truly don't understand your message.

sjcruiser Posted October 20, 2010 #28 Share Posted October 20, 2010 I only post my cabin number after the cruise. Beforehand maybe the deck, but most often category #. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

beachchick Posted October 20, 2010 #31 Share Posted October 20, 2010 We don't post any cruise information before our cruises. If we're writing a review or answering questions after, then we will. It's simply a matter of personal preference, not any specific "Something bad might happen" reason. However, we do not ever post personal information on any public forum (and we don't belong to Facebook or Twitter or whatever). beachchick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChiefSki Posted October 20, 2010 #32 Share Posted October 20, 2010 "Is there a downside to posting your cabin number on these boards, mainly your “cruise roll call”? Does anyone know of any problems or fraud? " People post their room numbers all the time on CC. I have never heard or read of it ever being an actual issue for anyone. When I saw that avatar!

travel girl23 Posted October 20, 2010 #33 Share Posted October 20, 2010 I never post personal information like that anywhere on the internet. Period. I will after I return from the cruise but not before. Which is why we do not do any social websites like Facebook, etc. by choice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
candydane Posted October 20, 2010 #34 Share Posted October 20, 2010 I doubt if anonymous room service would be an issue. I'd guess they have "caller id" just to be sure that doesn't happen. They always seem to know my room number and never ask for my name. Caller id lets them prevent kids or jokesters from stupid pranks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

marshhawk Posted October 20, 2010 #36 Share Posted October 20, 2010 I guess what everyone is saying is that . please charge that to my cabin, I'm Fred Smith cabin # m22. And then you would be charged, and never know until you are half way home and wonder why your sail and sign was a zillion dollars. Right? I never leave my house without hiring a baby sitter for my cats, so my house is never empty. And so far as I can tell it was a ship's employee in the TA department that was robbing cruisers homes when they were on their cruise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bythehex Posted October 20, 2010 #37 Share Posted October 20, 2010 Never been a problem for us or anyone we've cruised with that I know of. Nobody I know of or ever heard about either. And I imagine if it was really a problem in the many years I've been on Cruise Critic I would have read numerous posts from people "warning" others about it before now. Yet, that's never happened, so that must mean it hasn't been an issue. If people want to live in fear worrying about what likely will never happen, then that's fine for them. Sounds like a tempest in a teacup to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think that's why they call it a "sign and sail" card - you have to SIGN to be charged. We, too, have a cat sitter but also an alarm system.

PrincessE Posted October 20, 2010 #39 Share Posted October 20, 2010 Is there a downside to posting your cabin number on these boards, mainly your “cruise roll call”? Does anyone know of any problems or fraud? Personally, I never announce on the internet (this board or elsewhere) what my cabin number is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GlendaleCruiser Posted October 20, 2010 #40 Share Posted October 20, 2010 I still do not understand what someone can do, knowing that Paul & Jeannie are in cabin a123? I don't get that, either. Can't imagine what anyone would use the information for. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GlendaleCruiser Posted October 20, 2010 #41 Share Posted October 20, 2010 On our last roll call, we knew who was in what cabin. Made it easier if someone wanted to call up and meet for a drink after M&G but otherwise, no big deal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paul929207 Posted October 20, 2010 #42 Share Posted October 20, 2010 I frequently use the cabin number from the roll call to invite everyone to a Roll Call luncheon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
