begagirl Posted June 12, 2020 #577 Share Posted June 12, 2020 Today Travel Agent received full rebate for our 4 April Marina cruise from Buenos Aires to Lisbon. Much better service from Oceania than Celebrity who are still returning refunds in dribs and drabs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No it was due to sail from Venice with a couple of other Italian ports, on 9 March they amended the itinerary to Greek ports and we cancelled and asked for a full refund as this was a significant change under UK ABTA rules. They weren’t happy but did agree. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

2552phxcrzr Posted June 13, 2020 #584 Share Posted June 13, 2020 Got refund onJune 3 for May 25 cruise paid in full. Oceania canceled on April 24. We had until May 8 to decide on FCC or refund ... took the FCC. The refund is for the taxes and fees. 40 days from date of cancelation for the refund to post to my Visa.

Paulchili Posted June 13, 2020 #586 Share Posted June 13, 2020 It seems to me that O is doing a very good job with refunds compared to most cruise lines. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bbqoug Posted June 13, 2020 #587 Share Posted June 13, 2020 April 1 cruise Cancelled by Oceania on March 13 Full refund requested by us on March 14 & Cruise Cancelled Confirmation received on March 15. Still waiting for the final piece of our refund (about $725). I will contact our TA on Monday since she kept quoting the "up to 90 days" whenever I asked her to find the status of our refund. Today makes 90 days for us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Medeba Posted June 14, 2020 #589 Share Posted June 14, 2020 Good news. We have finally received our deposit refund from our TA. Trouble is, we now have two credits on our credit card: one from the TA and one from our card dispute. You couldn't make it up! So we now have to sort that out.

The credit from your card is temporary. Call the credit card and tell them you received the amount disputed from your TA and the CC will remove their temporary credit. As simple as that.

royallondon Posted June 15, 2020 #593 Share Posted June 15, 2020 That’s good news Medeba, excellent. Last week we were successful in pushing back our LA to LA cruise to next September by transferring this year’s deposit and avoiding paying the final payment. Still waiting on an Azamara refund from a cruise cancelled by them mid March and so likely to activate Section 75 myself. Let’s hope for many more successful outcomes this week.

bbqoug Posted June 16, 2020 #595 Share Posted June 16, 2020 We finally received the last piece of our refund this morning. Ship - Sirena Sail date - April 1, 2020 Oceania cancelled this cruise on March 13, 2020 We requested a full refund through our TA March 14, 2020 Cruise was paid in full December, 2019. The final 2 pieces of the refund (it ended up being refunded in 4 pieces total) arrived in our credit card account this morning, 93 days after receiving the cruise cancelled confirmation from Oceania. It would have been nice if O had paid out refunds on a first in first out basis. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WFHFLOYD Posted June 16, 2020 #596 Share Posted June 16, 2020 I cancelled my booking for 2021 on April 14th, out of concern for Oceania's ability to survive. I got the refund on June 4th. I had booked through Oceania directly, not a travel agent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redraider1966 Posted June 17, 2020 #597 Share Posted June 17, 2020 (edited) Our June 4-18, 2020, Alaska cruise on Regatta was cancelled by Oceania on April 24. We requested refund the same day through our TA. Refund appeared in credit card account today, June 17, in three pieces: original deposit, final payment, and residual payment for shore excursion.

HOLIDAYREADER Posted June 18, 2020 #598 Share Posted June 18, 2020 On 6/8/2020 at 6:05 AM, roger b said: I also booked with Six Star Cruises and was in your position , as I have posted before open a dispute with your credit card company money was back in my credit card account as soon as I showed that they wanted 90 days to refund, I also told S.S what I was doing !! Hi I have been told by Oceania that they refunded Six Star Cruises on 8th June. Our TA has confirmed that they have the money but apparently it comes in a lump sum with a spreadsheet and they have to work out who is owed what. I am not sure how long this will take but we haven't received anything yet! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Glenndale Posted June 18, 2020 #599 Share Posted June 18, 2020 Just filled in form for a section 75 for our March 30th TA. Sad that it has come to this, especially after reading that so many North American guests have been made whole for cruises departing after ours.

Happy day. do TA's still receive commissions if we get refunded? I hoped they would but was not sure. I wonder if it is different in different countries?
