firefly333 Posted June 30, 2011 #3 Share Posted June 30, 2011 What do you mean by counter offer? offer less than they are asking for. From what I know these people contacting you do not have the authority to accept a counter offer .. but their supervisors do .. so it doesnt hurt to make a offer if you are willing to walk away otherwise. I used to see people countering .. but not lately. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
golfadj Posted June 30, 2011 #4 Share Posted June 30, 2011 They cannot accept it while talking to you but have heard that sometimes they go to their supervisors a little later and call back with a new offer. Apparently though it does not happen very often only when they do not have success finding sometime to accept their original offer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lillian marie Posted July 1, 2011 #5 Share Posted July 1, 2011 I believe the upsell call is a luck of the draw issue-if the cruise you are on has empty cabins. If you are platinum or milenium you have a better chance for a call because you have shown CCL customer loyalty . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gooscar Posted July 1, 2011 #6 Share Posted July 1, 2011 Going on a cruise August 6th with a balcony stateroom (I booked directly with Carnival) got a call last Friday (June 24) from carnival wanting to upgrade me to a fancy suite for 250 per person, I said it was too much and said I would do it for a total of $200 for 2 people; the agent came back with a counter offer of $200 per person. I didn't take the offer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
