bonniboo1 Posted August 22, 2012 #527 Share Posted August 22, 2012 Maybe i misunderstood. It sounded that some folks who had booked b 4 this started snd were already paid, still got the obc. I mentioned this to my consultant at ncl and he said that everyone lies on cruise critic and only people who.booked since 7/1 gets it. I read him my letter which had an ending date but nevet said when iy started. He basically said too bad we would go out of business if we gave it to everyone. Wasnt asking 4 anything special, just thought that the tone could have been better. Fyi...out whole group didnt get any obc from any source.

lauti Posted August 23, 2012 #530 Share Posted August 23, 2012 Wow! Were u pd in full when u got the obc and if so, whom do u think thT i should speak with? Yes, paid in full. And I don't know specifically, seems like it's luck of the draw. I did actually have to have my brochure in hand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marym933 Posted August 23, 2012 #531 Share Posted August 23, 2012 I booked in March. I got the $100 OBC credit, no problem! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bonniboo1 Posted August 23, 2012 #532 Share Posted August 23, 2012 Thanks everyone, i will try again when my cruise consultant is off. Come to think of it, he has been worthless since we booked, rarely returning anyone in our groups calls. Last time we went eith a ta ftom a small agency and she was great.

kurdav Posted August 23, 2012 #533 Share Posted August 23, 2012 I booked my cruise 12-31-10 and still got the $100 OBC. I was not paid in full at the time. I think this is a win some-lose some type offer. It's disappointing when you are on the lose some team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pr0pel Posted August 23, 2012 #534 Share Posted August 23, 2012 I booked direct with NCL and after at least 7 times of getting shot down, I transferred it to an online TA, called NCL again, then finally got it applied with no hassles. What a debacle but I'm glad I finally have it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Travel Junkie Judy Posted August 23, 2012 #535 Share Posted August 23, 2012 I just called 866-234-7459 and spoke to Gil. This was my second attempt. The first one failed. She wouldn't even talk to me. She kept asking if I booked between June & Aug. Gil took my Latitudes number and my reservation number. He also asked for my address and phone number. I gave him a reservation number for next April. He transferred me to Isabel, who asked for my TA phone number. I gave it to her and she then applied the $100 OBC. I asked to have another $100 applied to another cruise - in my husband's name. I had sent for 2 brochures - one in each of our names. She then checked his Latitudes & applied the $100 OBC to a second cruise we're taking in May (b2b). I suggest that everyone just keep trying. It's worth it for the $$$. Good Luck!

petitcanard Posted August 23, 2012 #536 Share Posted August 23, 2012 My PCC was able to apply this credit for me. Thanks again to the OP for giving the heads up on this! :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bonbi Posted August 27, 2012 #537 Share Posted August 27, 2012 Got it applied to our current cruise for Nov that was booked a year ago AND booked an additional cruise for 2013 with the current promotion going on got $25 for being a latitudes bronze member, $100 with NCL promo that was going on and $50 from our TA, plus she got the HSN applied to that cruise as well. Thanks so much OP! We have never had OBC before and have a total of $225 for this year and $275 for next year. Just awesome. Really appreciate everyones tips that were posted as well on how to get it applied. For others trying to get it: On the first cruise we did not have our packet yet and the TA was able to add it. First she told us she couldn't but after explaining to her that we could she checked and it was already showing in our account. (it wasn't for me, on my NCL account, but did after she "found it"). But for the second cruise she needed the number from the packet, (not sure why) but luckily we got it in the mail a few days after asking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Call your TA if you have one. That is what worked for me but then again I don't go through an NCL PCC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hadn't yet received anything in the mail, so I was ready to give up hope of getting the OBC by Aug 31st. But I called and was transferred to another rep, he looked up my already-existing reservation, and in no time, the $100 was applied to my booking, in addition to what was already there. Yay!!:D I didn't have any code or letter -- so apparently just clicking the HSN link when I first heard about the offer was good enough. BTW, I booked over a year ago with a PCC but last time I asked him about the HSN offer, he was of no help. :confused: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Travel Junkie Judy Posted August 28, 2012 #548 Share Posted August 28, 2012 does anyone know if these offers come through often? I've never seen one like this, but there are usually different kinds of offers. You just have to watch for them. This is one of the best I've seen - except for the American Express offers for OBC when you book a suite. I'd like to see that one again.

A1SusieQ Posted August 28, 2012 #549 Share Posted August 28, 2012 does anyone know if these offers come through often? 2 years ago Topicana was giving onboard credit also. The best way to find out when all these offers take place is to pay attention to the NCL Boards. The people here are so generous with information. I hope to be able to find some obscure OBC offer to share with everyone soon!:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rahway742 Posted August 28, 2012 #550 Share Posted August 28, 2012 yes i wish i had seen it earlier:( and yea i hope so 2! because an obc is awesome 2 years ago Topicana was giving onboard credit also.
