I was hoping the refund would arrive shortly after but to no avail. In following this thread, has anyone gotten anything refunded in their original payment (Taxes, fees, excursion, tips)? Starting to really think our refunds might not happen, as much as it pains me to say this. One would have to think that the FCC and refund would be handled concurrently based on the form and choice selected. I’m still about three weeks until the 60 days they asked for processing time so I’m not super concerned. I was glad at least something is starting to happen and any other cc refund I ever got from Princess took about a week to show up on my card. I have a princess cruise vacation planner who I will get in touch with if I don’t see anything by May 11. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One would have to think that the FCC and refund would be handled concurrently based on the form and choice selected. We got refunds on our credit card for pre-paid excursions and gratuities a few days after we cancelled on March 6 for a March 10 cruise. Our FCC was posted to our accounts about two weeks after, disappeared and then re-appeared on April 1. We had to dispute the fess and taxes with our credit card company to get that refund. Took a few days for them to do their inquiry and refund the charges on our card. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lx200gps Posted April 21, 2020 #810 Share Posted April 21, 2020 Another semi-positive data point here. Princess cancelled our April 4 trip about 5 weeks ago. We immediately signed up for Option 1 on March 13. Just checked our CC account and sometime in the last few hours the FCCs for the cruise costs were applied, though for some reason mine is the correct amount but SWMBO's is exactly $400 less. Also, no sign of the "gift" FCCs which IIRC should be 75% in our particular case. I also checked the credit card and no sign of the $$$s that are to be refunded. I'll have to think about why hers is $400 short, hopefully it's not a clerical error. Problem is, per my earlier post, we've decided to see if we can "select" Option 2 and see if we can exchange the FCC for a cash refund. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spantz Posted April 21, 2020 #811 Share Posted April 21, 2020 (edited) I just received my FCC from my March 21 cruise. We had picked option 2. Hopefully the actual refund shows up on my credit card in the next few days. Edited April 21, 2020 by spantz Grammar 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

trrn2016 Posted April 21, 2020 #813 Share Posted April 21, 2020 Just talked to my TA. He called to check on the status of our cancelled 5/4/20 cruise. Selected Option 2. He stated that Princess is still saying 60 days but they had marked the booking as being processed. Hope it really happens! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hi Coral: Option #1 was for, in our case, 175% of cruise fare in FCC...that checks out to the dime. Option #2 was for a refund of all monies paid to Princess, and a 50% FCC. We indeed received #1. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare ceilidh1 Posted April 21, 2020 #817 Share Posted April 21, 2020 Happy to see so many people getting something right now. Still perplexed as to why, if it is meant to be in sailing date order, some with later sailings are getting this prior to those with earlier sailings. Still nothing for my March 14th sailing. I will give them until Friday and then check in. At that point, I will be at day 45. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SargassoPirate Posted April 21, 2020 #819 Share Posted April 21, 2020 If you are feeling nervous about actually receiving a cash refund, file a dispute with your credit card company. Then you'll have an advocate in your corner to slug it out with Princess. It'll put your mind at ease - at least it did for us. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That way, they can work through an entire voyage and deal with similar issues/situations. So, if multiple voyages are being worked at once, it is possible some refunds for later cruises are getting processed ahead of some with older dates. IDK, just a WAG, but as long as it gets done, that is the main point. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the problem is, there are probably several different processes going on and everyone is carrying out the processes differently. I have three canceled cruises that all have FCDs attached to them. The rep down at Princess took the time to check this out. I'm just going to take a wait and see approach. I'm not giving them any more of my money until I get these sailings resolved. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Each passenger needs to login Individually to cruise personalizer under their captain circle number. If you don’t have one call Princess to get it straightened out. We do have individual numbers I think! While the numeric portion is the same, mine ends in A while DWs ends in B . Does that constitute individual numbers and if so I am still unclear as to how to sign into DWs account. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
