gooselover Posted October 28, 2012 #1 Share Posted October 28, 2012 I have booked a cruise with Early Saver. We are NOT to the final payment date. I know I will lose $100 and the $400 will remain for future cruise, however, I have made extra payments on this. My question is - will I get my extra 300 I have paid on this cruise back????

MrFunInTheSun Posted October 28, 2012 #2 Share Posted October 28, 2012 You should receive the extra monies paid back. • Does Early Saver follow Carnival’s standard deposit, payment and cancellation terms? The deposit and payment terms are the same. However, Early Saver reservations require a full non-refundable deposit per person. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gooselover Posted October 28, 2012 Author #3 Share Posted October 28, 2012 Okay, I just got off the phone will Carnival. They are saying that I will NOT get my extra payments back. So, I have paid the $500 deposit, then I have made another payment just last week for $300 towards the balance and Carnival is saying that I won't get ANY MONEY BACK? That doesn't sound correct or right to me. Other opinions? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

xostacylee Posted October 28, 2012 #6 Share Posted October 28, 2012 I think it depends on when your cruise is.. here's the link from Carnival: http://www.carnival.com/cms/faq/default.aspx?faq=earlysaver. We just booked on early saver, and we will get everything but our $750 non-refundable deposit back if we cancel up to 76 days before the cruise. If you're within 55-30 days before the sale date, you're only to get Deposit or 50% of Total Fare, whichever is greater, so you may be at that 50% rate, depending on your cruise.

I'd suggest calling someone else at Carnival and if they continue to say the same thing, ask to speak to a supervisor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

travelgarn Posted October 28, 2012 #9 Share Posted October 28, 2012 I agree that it does not sound right. I had booked a cruise for my mother under early saver & had paid extra. We cancelled before final payment & received the extra money back in a refund. I would call Carnival back until I got the CORRECT answer.

Call back We cancelled under ES lost the standard $50pp and the remaining payments were refunded back to my credit card on that billing cycle. You will then have the deposit credit to use on a future cruise to be booked within 2 years of the cancellation date. Be sure to keep your orig booking number for reference.

This is exactly how it worked for me when I had to cancel. They got $50pp and I had the $200pp to apply to a future cruise, and the rest came back to me! Call again. If your PVP isn't handling it correctly -- I'd ask for a new PVP. If you're going through a TA -- they should be doing all this for you!!!!

gooselover Posted October 29, 2012 Author #12 Share Posted October 29, 2012 Okay, I did call them back and got another person by the name of Jennifer. She completely understood what was going on - unlike the first person - and I am getting my extra monies refunded back on my card. THANK YOU all for pushing me to call them again!
