dstables Posted December 14, 2015 #1 Share Posted December 14, 2015 If I purchase OBC's before we sail can I get cash out the OBC's while on board the ship at Passenger Services for cash? Or are you better to buy Casino Credits that can be cashed out in the Casino? Don't want to travel with a lot of cash and thought I had read somewhere on here that this can be done.

Debathome Posted December 14, 2015 #2 Share Posted December 14, 2015 (edited) No, you cannot receive any funds from your account. On our recent cruise we had purchased $1,000 OBC each in the form of gifts because Princess was offering an exchange at only 10% at the time and our Canadian dollar exchange was quite a bit more. Towards the end of the cruise we still had a few hundred each leftover so we asked if we could cash some out so that we could fill tip envelopes. This cannot be done, monies cannot be refunded until the cruise is over and then what they determine is yours, and not unrefundable OBC, they will send a cheque or pay it back onto your Credit Card. We needed the money for the envelopes so I just went to the casino, opened a casino account, placed the amount of money still on board in the account into my gaming account, pulled a few slots (didn't win!) and cashed out. I then decided to do this to cash out both of our accounts the night before disembarkation. Edited December 14, 2015 by Debathome Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jennyg2610 Posted December 14, 2015 #3 Share Posted December 14, 2015 Buy casino credit. We got $2000 out in cash as Princess offered a great exchange. No hassle to do it this way. They put vouchers in your room then you take it to the casino and they give you the cash. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
