Thanks again for your help. Rachel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jtdlmc Posted February 16, 2015 #28 Share Posted February 16, 2015 I agree - post the situation on their facebook page. I have found I received almost immediate and satisfactory assistance when I had posted on a couple company's FB pages where all could see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yitao Posted February 17, 2015 Author #29 Share Posted February 17, 2015 I have resent the email yesterday ( the first one was sent to them last Friday) and posted on RCI's facebook this morning. I notice that they have put comments on the posts before and after me but mines is still empty. How long should I wait , I worried that as the sailing date close ( Mar 15, 2015), if they did not provide the solution I will have to cancel the cruise . Now their offer is no penalty if I cancel, if I waited too long, they may change it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Starry Eyes Posted February 17, 2015 #30 Share Posted February 17, 2015 (edited) Our Cruise is next month. Can't wait several weeks for their reply. We come to this cruise with other 8 families, except my family, they are all first time RCI cruiser, I actually suggested them to try RCI, and now I am the one may not be able to go with them :( It would be sad if you had to cancel with friends and family aboard. Any chance you'd be willing to share a cabin any of them? Any chance you'd be willing to downgrade to a lesser cabin in order to sail with your party? I have resent the email yesterday ( the first one was sent to them last Friday) and posted on RCI's facebook this morning. I notice that they have put comments on the posts before and after me but mines is still empty. How long should I wait , I worried that as the sailing date close ( Mar 15, 2015), if they did not provide the solution I will have to cancel the cruise . Now their offer is no penalty if I cancel, if I waited too long, they may change it. If the price is now unacceptable and you have no alternative solution, I would not wait too much long to accept their no penalty cancellation. You are well into penalty phase; that would be painful if they withdrew the offer. Edited February 17, 2015 by Starry Eyes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare cruising sister Posted February 18, 2015 #31 Share Posted February 18, 2015 Keep trying but you may need accept something so you can at least go. I accepted a lesser deal and it got changed once I got through to the proper people. Did you send your emails to both Michael Bayley and Adam Goldstein? I hope you get contacted from someone soon. Once you decide to accept something and are satisfied let the tension go. Start dreaming about the fun you will have and enjoy your family and friends.

There is absolutely nothing wrong with mentioning Royals facebook page on this site. The promotion of Facebook groups on roll calls is not allowed.

waterbugohio Posted February 18, 2015 #35 Share Posted February 18, 2015 wow, really feel sorry for you OP. This is not right. I would be the "squeaky wheel" if this were my cruise. I would be emailing every hour and calling every chance I got. Sometime they just get tired of you and try to take care of it. Will it help if we can find the post on the royal fb site and all comment??? Will look for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pogobrowny Posted February 19, 2016 #44 Share Posted February 19, 2016 We had a problem where our dinner reservations and scheduled entertainment got cancelled. We were very upset and no one could help. We followed the instructions here, and in less than 24 hours everything was resolved and we were given some freebies for compensation. Thank you cruise critic members. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
