Queen of Oakville Posted September 26, 2016 #1 Share Posted September 26, 2016 We have two cabins booked. Reservation has me and my daughter in one cabin and hubby and son in the other cabin. I'm planning on buying the surf&stream for 3 devices. If I buy it through my reservation, I can pick my daughter and myself as the two users. Does it matter who the users are? One of the devices will be my son on the 2nd reservation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
William234 Posted September 26, 2016 #2 Share Posted September 26, 2016 The internet service doesn't know that your son owns the device and not you. It will just prompt for a username and password when he connects. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm seeing 31.48 USD per day. is that before/after the discount? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Biker19 Posted September 26, 2016 #4 Share Posted September 26, 2016 That sounds about right for 3 devices. You typically won't see the on board prices when booking ahead. I hope you realize that you don't need a 3 device package if you can learn to share. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope you realize that you don't need a 3 device package if you can learn to share. A good point to make! We sign up for 1 device...but use 2 different devices BUT NOT AT THE SAME TIME. One login and password - shared on 2 devices (as long as not using them at the same time). Unless you have 2 or more people using their devices at the same time...you're likely overpaying for the service. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Queen of Oakville Posted September 26, 2016 Author #6 Share Posted September 26, 2016 Yes, I did know we can share, but thank you for mentioning it. There are 3 of us to take turns sharing with my hubby :D We'd probably be fine with the 2 device package, but I'd rather just buy upfront and not worry about it.

Queen of Oakville Posted September 26, 2016 Author #7 Share Posted September 26, 2016 I usually end up buying one or more travel data plans through my phone provider (which doesn't work at sea but allows me to check email in port). I figure this is the better deal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Queen of Oakville Posted September 26, 2016 Author #8 Share Posted September 26, 2016 (edited) Fortunately, I was paying attention. If you select USERS, that means you want to buy a package for each user. It came to $440 (because I had selected both myself and my daughter) and thought I was trying to buy a 3-device package for each of us! Glad I caught it before hitting submit.

Yeah....they should really put the word concurrent in front of Users to make it even more accurate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
