cruisine21 Posted November 28, 2017 #1 Share Posted November 28, 2017 We did a cruise on the QE in Feb/March this year. Today I received an email from Cunard saying that the $400 OBC I received when I purchased a Future Cruise Deposit is expiring soon. The thing is we didn’t purchase a FCD. I will be ringing to check. I’m confused why we received the email. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare mr walker Posted November 28, 2017 #2 Share Posted November 28, 2017 Got a similar email just now, addressed to me personally, even quoting a Cunard World Club numberr - never been on Cunard??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GUT2407 Posted November 28, 2017 #3 Share Posted November 28, 2017 Seems a bit of a scam and when you look at the email address.... I’d say Carnival Corp (who have one number across all lines) might have been hacked. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare cheznandy Posted November 28, 2017 #7 Share Posted November 28, 2017 Think they are being inundated with calls, I am still on hold:rolleyes: We will all probably get an email shortly apologising. Princess, P&OAU, P&OUK and Cunard all have the same Loyalty number. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Docker123 Posted November 28, 2017 #8 Share Posted November 28, 2017 I got one as well. Never having made a future booking. Interesting things happen on investigation. Someone has posted a question on the Cunard fb page. Awaiting a response. Could not find a login for the World Club site to see what they had for me. Could not find. The Cunard page on CC has a thread indicating Cunard deactivated that site some months ago -- planning a replacement, no timeframe given. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare OzKiwiJJ Posted November 28, 2017 #9 Share Posted November 28, 2017 There has been quite a lot of discussion on this on an Aussie Princess FB page. I received one, have never cruised with Cunard, and the membership number quoted is my Princess Captain's Circle number. Either Carnival Corp / Princess has been hacked or Cunard has been given the Princess Captain's Circle details and is using them for some weird promo. BTW I don't currently have any active FCDs with Princess either, I've used them all and are waiting for my next cruise to buy more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare cheznandy Posted November 28, 2017 #10 Share Posted November 28, 2017 So I guess the one thing we all have in common here is we have all sailed Princess? I ended up hanging up, way too long to be on hold. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GUT2407 Posted November 28, 2017 #14 Share Posted November 28, 2017 I have never sailed Princess. You don’t need to have, you maintain the same passenger number across, at least, P&O Aus, Princess and Cunard, I assume Carnival too, so I’d say it came from a central data base, the thing I find strangest is that the address it came from is nothing like the one any of my Cunard stuff has been from.

Rare MicCanberra Posted November 28, 2017 #15 Share Posted November 28, 2017 Seems like a mistake was made and they sent it to a mailing list. I suppose if you all just provide me with your bank details I am willing to investigate it further for you all or I can get my Nigerian uncle to do it for a smaller fee.. :p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GUT2407 Posted November 28, 2017 #16 Share Posted November 28, 2017 Well the girls got an apology, I didn’t even get the Spam. Probably tells me what Cunard think of my business:eek::loudcry: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The girls reckon Cunard knew better than to send it to me, cause I’d have booked before they knew there was an issue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ru2on Posted November 29, 2017 #22 Share Posted November 29, 2017 Interestingly I got that email and it aligned with my future cruise deposit number on princess.. and then today I received an email from P&O telling me about some last minute tips and tricks for my cruise which it said is leaving in a few days ... but the ship had already left the port so to speak as the cruise was in October .. had a good time on that cruise ,wish it was leaving again in.

I would not Cunard again anyway Mic, ordinary and overrated IMO.:( Not really my scene anyway, I must have a little bit of Bogan blood in me, little bit I said.
