mikel24m Posted March 26, 2015 #1 Share Posted March 26, 2015 Hello all I was wondering if anyone has used the Carnival ecards for gambling with their sign and sail and if anyone had any problems using them ? I bought 10 x $100 with our Citi card points for $900 and was thinking about buying another 10 today to use for some of our gambling. I love having the 10% off ,sort of like $200 more OBC for us :) It says right on the print out redeem towards activities/shore excursions or onboard gifts, drinks and fun but nothing casino so just trying to make sure Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You go to guest services or the Kiosk and add them to your Sign and Sail card and then use your card on anything you want. Just use your card at the casino and it will deduct from your credit balance on your S&S card. Just remember if you have any left over to take it out at the casino (transfer to a slot machine and then cash out) so you don't leave a balance on your S&S card.

musikfans Posted March 26, 2015 #9 Share Posted March 26, 2015 We just purchased $2500 in gift cards through our daughter's scrip through school. They gave us 8% back in her school account toward band fees. We saved $200 we would have paid anyway. We had already booked, paid and were inside the 45 day window. I just called Carnival and they processed all 25 cards with me on the phone and credited my credit card back the $2500. It took us an hour on the phone but Carnival was VERY nice and we knocked $200 off!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mhurley0504 Posted March 26, 2015 #12 Share Posted March 26, 2015 You can also get 10% off if you have Verizon. However, I have been trying for several days and as of now hey are sold out:( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TerReuv Posted March 26, 2015 #13 Share Posted March 26, 2015 AARP Rewards for Good also has them but also, like Verizon, has been sold out forever it seems. I just happened to find them on my Citideals rewards site and got some and posted here that I found them there. Hopefully those will not start disappearing like the Verizon and AARP ones.

dogchopper Posted March 26, 2015 #14 Share Posted March 26, 2015 Don't have Verizon or AARP. :(. Poop! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ski_mom Posted March 26, 2015 #15 Share Posted March 26, 2015 Which Citibank card work with this? Also, do you have to have point to redeem to get the discount or is the discount just available if you buy them through their portal? I don't have a citibank card, but my mom does, so I was going to have her check to see if she could buy any through hers. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
