Old As Dirt Mom Posted March 12, 2017 Author #51 Share Posted March 12, 2017 I've been getting the credentials message when I try to access the itinerary or buy indulgences. I could access the make a payment tab and the online check in section. But, I finally got into the itinerary through a roundabout way. Up at the very top where it says My Account and how many days till your cruise, it also has a link for excursions and spa stuff. I clicked on that and got into my itinerary. ................. This is similar to the work-around I've been using today. I click on the "Already Booked" tab in the upper right hand corner of the main HAL page. I was able to make specialty dining reservations/purchases for my upcoming cruise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alwaysfrantic Posted March 12, 2017 #52 Share Posted March 12, 2017 I get the invalid credentials when I try to view itinerary or purchase things. The rest of the site seemed okay Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Old As Dirt Mom Posted March 12, 2017 Author #54 Share Posted March 12, 2017 Oh wow, are you and The Second Sister going on another cruise? I'll be DELIGHTED to have another of your blogs to look forward to reading!:D:D:D Yes, we are:D. I'm taking The Second Sister on another Alaska cruise this season, as the ultimate motivation for her recovery after her total replacement knee surgery. Would love to meet you on a cruise some day, Av8rix. (Sorry for the personal aside, folks):) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ger_77 Posted March 12, 2017 #55 Share Posted March 12, 2017 I tried booking an excursion and got the "credentials" message as well. I ended up calling Guest Services and spoke with a real live body.

Old As Dirt Mom Posted March 12, 2017 Author #58 Share Posted March 12, 2017 When and on what ship are you going? The Eurodam, on one of the itineraries that does NOT have a large group on board! We'll be doing our blog before you leave on your Oosterdam cruise, so you can ask us lots of questions :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dfish Posted March 12, 2017 #59 Share Posted March 12, 2017 That worked for me too, thanks. That was very clever of you to try that. :) Glad I could be of help. That is still the way in this morning, unfortunately. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
just_cruising_along Posted March 12, 2017 #60 Share Posted March 12, 2017 Never got this message before, but this what I got this morning.....{"message":"Credentials not found!","mdcKey":"028XXXXX"}(I replaced the numbers with "x"s in case those numbers link my account somehow) This is still my experience as well. The front-end of the website is up, but when you want to look at your booked passage details, this message still appears. HAL said it would be fixed "later today or by tomorrow at the latest."

slidergirl Posted March 12, 2017 #61 Share Posted March 12, 2017 Perhaps HAL saw how well the CC enhancement upgrade went and contracted with the engineer responsible for it to come and upgrade the HAL website... A hallmark of a good company is one who does extensive system/user interface testing according to a test plan and test procedure before pushing something out to the world...

Cruising-along Posted March 12, 2017 #62 Share Posted March 12, 2017 I've been trying to see if any excursions have been added for our October cruise. I'm still getting "credentials not found" message this morning. :( I haven't tried doing anything else, but "shore excursions for booked cruises" isn't working for me.

Rare Lady Arwen Posted March 12, 2017 #63 Share Posted March 12, 2017 I could not access my itinerary or excursions or dining earlier this morning. Now I got through going to my Check In and worked backwards. It worked! Viewed my itinerary and was able to access everything else. So weird!

madda Posted March 12, 2017 #64 Share Posted March 12, 2017 I am also having the same problem, couldn't get past Purchase and View Itinerary, got the message "credentials not found" etc. Rang HAL in Sydney who said that everything was working fine at their end no problems. Finally purchased my excursions over the phone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mtngirl2 Posted March 13, 2017 #65 Share Posted March 13, 2017 It was also down Friday afternoon into Friday evening. I was surprised about the Friday afternoon timing, but glad to know some new itineraries are up!:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dfish Posted March 13, 2017 #67 Share Posted March 13, 2017 It is still working to go through Excursions, Spa and More up at the top of the page. Still get the credentials message if you try to access it normally. I hope this isn't the final form. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dfish Posted March 14, 2017 #72 Share Posted March 14, 2017 Still not fixed this morning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Crazy For Cats Posted March 15, 2017 #73 Share Posted March 15, 2017 Not fixed today either. I decided to book a second Tamarind dinner for our upcoming cruise and had to use ship services. The web would not process the credit card. At least the HAL rep was "no it's not you, it's been going on for three weeks and I think they keep making it worse". She was very pleasant to work with.
