Barnes11 Posted January 31, 2018 #1 Share Posted January 31, 2018 If I buy gift cards and apply them to my account, in the form of Cruise Cash, can I pull that money out at a table without the 3% service charge? I either have to carry a bunch of cash or I have signed for more cash at the blackjack table if I needed it but I pay the fee. I only ever put a credit card down on my sign and sail account so I have never had funds waiting to be used. I'd rather not travel around with thousands of dollars in cash before getting on the ship if this is an option. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Schoifmom Posted January 31, 2018 #2 Share Posted January 31, 2018 They always charge the 3% to pull money at the tables. I would recommend using the trick at the slots to pull cash off and then take that cash to the tables. No fee that way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoastieBMC Posted January 31, 2018 #3 Share Posted January 31, 2018 No they shave. It always pull 3% at he tables only for an advance if you have money in account say gift cards or a lot winnings you can get cash at no cost just tell them and they set you up you just need the PIN number you created on the a lot machines or go to the casino cage and ask for help!

jdoc2010 Posted January 31, 2018 #4 Share Posted January 31, 2018 Just get convert your cruise cash to your players bank at the slot machine and cash out as the cage. You can also save the 3% cash fee from the tables by charging your players account to your S&S account at the slot machines and cashing out at the cage.

Barnes11 Posted February 1, 2018 Author #5 Share Posted February 1, 2018 Thanks for the info. I will have to look into this further. I am not familiar with a player's bank on slot machines as I only play blackjack or craps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cmichael1279 Posted February 1, 2018 #7 Share Posted February 1, 2018 Make sure you spin a couple of times on the slot machines before you withdraw, or they might lock your card up to add any additional money to your Player's Bank... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nychad10 Posted February 1, 2018 #8 Share Posted February 1, 2018 How much can you get back if you use the casino trick? I play blackjack and have over $4,000 in gift cards. Can i put it all on my S&S and then take all that out using the casino trick and then use it to play blackjack? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I can for sure get it paid out at the end of the cruise seems like a great option to load my account with gift cards at 10% off rather than carry cash or pay 3% at the tables.

lcpagejr Posted February 1, 2018 #10 Share Posted February 1, 2018 This is what I did when I cruised on the Vista over Thanksgiving. I prepaid for my tips and Cheers.....so I had a $250 OBC. Knowing I would have some minor expenses added to our account over the 8 days.... I withdrew $200 at Casino. I just charged $200 to my room by setting up an account on a slot machine. Very easy to do. Then I spent a few dollars on the slot (Video Poker). Then decided to cash out at the Cashier. Very easy process and I had my cash for use on the islands.

And you'll already be up 10%, easy return ;-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
