StaceySteveDMB Posted April 30, 2014 #26 Share Posted April 30, 2014 So far I've had zero issues with the TA I use. Never a problem. Available 24/7. Very polite and responsive to any of my needs. And I use them because of the added perks. However if I have any problems I would stop using them and book directly with Carnival. The perks are nice but not worth the hassle if you go through that with a TA. Fortunately I haven't had any. What perks do you get? Do you watch for rate drops or do they? How fast do they get back to you with ONC from rate drops? I have never booked through a TA so I don't know the benefits. I do watch price drops like a hawk and call every time it drops even a cent. We have almost $1500 in OBC across three rooms got out cruise in four weeks. Sent from my iPhone using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jjh9 Posted April 30, 2014 #27 Share Posted April 30, 2014 Yet *another* reason to NOT book through (or trust) travel agents! As replies above have already said, Carnival will work with you, sounds like your TA won't. PVP's and even the customer service line have been very helpful to me anytime I book. I'd ask to speak with their manager, and not use them again for future travel. They just want the commission from you and that's it. No most will not work with you. I booked early saver but could not get obc. I tried my pvp his supervisor and called customer service. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cocochanel26 Posted April 30, 2014 #28 Share Posted April 30, 2014 Can you talk to carnival and explain your problem and have your booking switched to a PVP? Not sure in what circumstances they do this, but they will if you are having real issues with a TA.

Casco Bay Kid Posted April 30, 2014 #29 Share Posted April 30, 2014 Carnival is not pulling a fast one. Your TA is. Never ever use a TA. Useless. Sent from my HTC One mini using Forums mobile app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
