Why would anyone post on a public forum, especially on one where you know the cruise line has a relationship with, and broadcast an administrative error...... reminds me of being in school and Billy would let the teacher know that the answers to the test were on the board!!

 

Even if the points were meant by NCL to be a gesture of good will...... "shhhh" just in case it isn't.  You didn't cruise so why would you expect points?? Would you expect points again when you used your FCC in the future?? 

 

smh

There is another thread started in April called Latitudes Points For Cancelled Cruises.  You might want to admonish those people for possibly blowing the secret also.  Why would someone on a public forum broadcast an administrative error?  Because you can't cheat an honest man.

Why is it that someone can have a thought and everyone wants to take it that the person is admonishing or chastising or picking on someone..........

 

If Starbucks charges $6 for a coffee and the cashier accidently gives me the incorrect change..... I bring it to their attention because it is their drawer that will be short. However, if the Starbucks computer charges me $4 in error...... I pay the $4 and shut up for my sake and all those behind me.

 

There's a huge difference especially when the cost isn't a personal one but a points system.

 

I guess we found Billy

My point being, sometimes being silent when a "good thing" happens that has no financial impact on a company is the preferred thing to do..... especially if that "good thing" is worthless to someone and by speaking up could take it away from others. 

 

and I mean in this forum, reddit, and any other location....  

No financial impact?  People could be advanced to levels they did not earn, get 2 free dinners for 2 at specialty restaurants, extra bottle of cheap wine.  Would add up for thousands of people.

You know that the dinners and "extra cheap wine" are all crap the cruise line literally gives away so people spend money in the casino, excursions, gift shops, bingo, etc where the real money is made. 

 

Wow, Billy and Karen in one.

Don't spend money in casino, excursions, gift shops, bingo, etc.

This is cruise critic. Everyone who has been here long enough knows not to take this or the regulars here seriously.
