AARP - Carnival Gift Card Delivery Question

[darth frosty]

Just ordered 4-$500 to pay for our hawaii cruise.

 

Does anyone know why they no longer offer the E GiftCard?

Thank you.  As of 1/15/19 the top 4 only worked.  I appreciate the codes.

 

 

 

 

Thanks Saint Greg.  These are the only codes that worked.  Worth 150 points each.

Thinking about buying a few to pay for my upcoming cruise anyone ever have any issues with redeeming them?

And how do you go about redeeming them?

Never had any issues using the card with Carnival. If you want to use them to pay your cruise balance, you can do it directly via your Cruise Manager (if you booked direct with Carnival or a PVP) or if you used a TA, the TA should be able to apply the gift cards to your balance. You can also use them to pay for Carnival sponsored excursions, Fun Shop purchases, etc. Lastly, you can take them on the cruise with you and have them applied to your on board account (with Guest Services or the on-board kiosks) as credit to spend during the cruise.

Thank You! I just read a post awhile back where someone had been scammed on these but thinking it was a third party sale.

Just an update ordered Tues afternoon, just saw an email they're due to be delivered Thursday.

Ordered Monday afternoon, received in mail today.  It hasn’t even posted to my credit card yet... very quick

I live in NJ. It took a week from time ordering to delivery for 2 $ 100.00 cards. Guess it varies from state to state. It takes forever  to receive mail sent from Florida

They were all out of 500.00 increments when I purchased on Thursday so I ended up having to get a lot. The less than 500 came today but I'm assuming I'll be getting the other cards in two separate shipments through UPS shortly. We'll see.

Ordered one $500 and one $100 the end of Jan and it took 10 days for both of them in one pkg through UPS. 

AARP told me I would get a tracking number from them or UPS when shipped. Did not happen. I finally called AARP and got one but following it online was a joke. Said shipped from Ohio on day 3. The next entry was on day 9 stating delivery would be the next day. I signed up for updates via text (and got confirmation of this by text) but never got any. 

Shipment was from Ohio to MN. But then we have a blizzard or -33 degree temps every other day here. Lol

I received my $500 in about 7 days it was delivered to a UPS store of my choice. I did have to sign for it so this made it more convenient to just pick up. I also purchased $100 gift cards that came in a few days no need to sign for these.

How do you order the cards? When I go to the AARP website I don’t see anywhere to order gift cards? Thanks

Rewards catalog and then gift cards travel. It appears the $500 are all sold out though.

Ordered $1k for Cheers and internet on Thursday 2/7 and they attempted delivery today via UPS but we weren't home.  Ours requires a signature which I think it should with the amount involved.
