ScottToronto Posted December 28, 2013 #1 Share Posted December 28, 2013 Good afternoon, Did anyone receive a Christmas card or email from Silversea this year? I remember the days when we received a card in the mail. It was a nice gesture. Yes, I understand that everyone is cutting back on sending cards in the mail but an email doesn't cost a cent. Not a big deal but small personal touches is what differentiated Silversea from the rest of the luxury cruise lines. Anyway, Happy Holidays and Happy New Year to all my friends on CC. Wishing you great health, happiness, joy, peace and love.........may 2014 find you onboard of the beautiful Silversea ships. Best of wishes and a small prayer for our dear friend Judy Abbott.

Rare RachelG Posted December 28, 2013 #2 Share Posted December 28, 2013 I got an email, actually two, but one was addressed to my husband. They were nice. Don't want a card through the post. Waste of money IMO, and I am going to advise charities that I do ate to not to waste money sending me cards this next year or I will stop donating. Very annoying.

dusababy Posted December 28, 2013 #3 Share Posted December 28, 2013 I received a very tasteful, simple e-card. Much more appropriate than U.S.mail IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oregon50 Posted December 28, 2013 #4 Share Posted December 28, 2013 oh my god.....this is what you call a nice touch? And it has something to do with an on board luxury experience? I received two cards, too. One postal, one e-mail. Nice touch.....it's a sales tool. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Master Echo Posted December 29, 2013 #8 Share Posted December 29, 2013 So pleased some of you received a Christmas card - we didnt either in the mail nor by email. Maybe we havent done enough cruises this year?!! Anyway may we wish all our Silversea cruise friends a very happy healthy and prosperous 2014, may we all have fair seas and blue skies on our upcoming 2014 cruises, and a heartfelt prayer for Judy Abbott. Kindest regards Master Echo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare Silver Spectre Posted December 30, 2013 #11 Share Posted December 30, 2013 (edited) Looks like it was mostly a UK thing, and mine appears to have been signed by the dreaded Mr Shaw! Edited December 30, 2013 by Silver Spectre Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Observer Posted December 30, 2013 #13 Share Posted December 30, 2013 Some people may not receive e-cards because they have unsubscribed from SS email mailings (as I have done). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ging466 Posted December 31, 2013 #14 Share Posted December 31, 2013 Looks like it was mostly a UK thing, and mine appears to have been signed by the dreaded Mr Shaw!

eastwoodboy Posted January 12, 2014 #15 Share Posted January 12, 2014 We are in the UK, have three cruises booked ... no Christmas card or e message. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk Sorry I am a bit late with this one but have only just returned from Christmas on Spirit to find no card on my mat no e-mail and nothing delivered on board. This is after 3 other cruises during 2013 so would suggest you brace yourself of disappointment again this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

badgerdee Posted January 13, 2014 #18 Share Posted January 13, 2014 We both received an email card and, as we were onboard Whisper for Christmas (review pending), we received a card from the ship and a lovely "Happy Holidays" photo from our butler and suite attendant. I'm in the "no paper cards, thanks" camp. Electronic is fine. We also prefer electronic tickets. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ravenscroft Posted January 13, 2014 #19 Share Posted January 13, 2014 We haven't received either an e-card or one by post. We both receive promotional emails and brochures and offers in the post. In fact we just received a 2015 Voyages brochure on Saturday. We haven't sailed SS for approx 2 years, you'd think they would want to be trying to attract past guests, surely?
