Drawing cash in NCL Casino

[HazeGray]

After reviewing the NCL web page on cash withdrawals at the casino, I am still a bit confused. Can you get cash in the casino against your onboard account? It used to be that way with a 3% service charge. Now it appears that it is against your credit card with a 5.5% service fee. Any information would be appreciated. Thanks.

Global Cash Advances - Available at the Casino Cage with Visa®, MasterCard®, and Discover®. Cash advance fees at

5.5 % of requested amount.

If you take your credit card to the casino cage you will be charged 5.5% of the requested amount.

 

ATM Machines - An ATM Machine is located in the casino and some ship atriums. ATM fee - $5.50 per transaction.

 

self explanatory

 

Onboard accounts - Sign up to $2,000 per day to your onboard account. The limit is per day per credit card. A 3% convenience fee may apply.

 

If you take the money up to $2000/day off of your onboard account at the casino cage it is 3% of the requested amount.

 

I believe the wording is "may apply", because it used to be and may still be that certain levels of players did not pay 3%.

That is correct if you draw directly from a credit card there is 5.5% service fee plus what ever your card charges for cash advances.

 

If you draw against your onboard account it is 3% and treated like a purchase on the card.

 

Once someone goes thru $2000 a day limit on option 2 then option one is used to increase their donation.

Also the wording "may apply" is because in the past they have not charged the 3% fee on European sailings.. Don't know if this has changed very recently, no fees as of May of this year.

Thanks Robin, I've never had the pleasure yet of a European sailing. We don't get enough time off of work to allow this to happen. But it is on my wish list for the future, with fingers crossed. ;)
