Rare Ken the cruiser Posted July 30, 2020 #1 Share Posted July 30, 2020 (edited) Last week I logged onto my Princess account and noticed in my Profile that my information had been replaced with my DW's information, to include email account, phone number and passport information. I thought that was really weird, but I was able to correct it and all has been fine since. But, when my DW signed on to her Princess account, she found all of my information had populated her Profile information. Weird, huh? She then corrected the information, but something then started happening when she subsequently logged on the past few days. Her birthday date would change by one day, same month but just a day earlier. She called Princess today and they found for some reason we both had a second Captains Club number (and associated profile). After making sure all 5 of our cruises were tied to our long standing CC number, she asked the CC representative to delete the second number. But here's the weird part, she said those mysterious new CC numbers were actually our HAL Mariner Society numbers. Which got us to thinking, could Carnival be experimenting with the idea, once cruising starts back up, of creating a way for passengers who have sailed with both HAL and Princess to use their accumulated loyalty points, much like how RCCL does when you sail on either a Celebrity or Azamara cruise? It definitely would elate us as we would become 5* on HAL and Elite on Princess. Has this "swapping of profile information" happened to you and what do you think of the possibility of HAL and Princess merging a passenger's loyalty points as they are pretty much competing for the same demographics?

nini Posted July 30, 2020 #5 Share Posted July 30, 2020 I can sign into my account. When I click on "Upcoming Cruises", then click on the one that has been cancelled (that still appears), then it tells me that the wrong birthday is on file, even though it is correct. I can still "manage" the other cruises that have not been cancelled with no problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Syracusefan44 Posted July 30, 2020 #7 Share Posted July 30, 2020 (edited) Just checked my account on Princess and my DOB is off by one day. I just booked a cruise on Wednesday and everything was fine. Is there any possibility that they are going to merge the two cruise line’s as a cost cutting move at the corporate level?

tonit964 Posted July 30, 2020 #9 Share Posted July 30, 2020 I just logged in and sure enough, my birthdate is one day off. I don't have an upcoming cruises booked. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thrak Posted July 30, 2020 #10 Share Posted July 30, 2020 Just checked my account and my wife's account. Everything was good except that, once again, she had my cell number. I've fixed that in the past but it always gets messed up again when I book another cruise. I also had to check the box to send us promotions via email. Neither of us had that checked and I know it wasn't supposed to be that way. Our birth dates and other information was correct. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jennybenny Posted July 30, 2020 #11 Share Posted July 30, 2020 I just went in to double check. All my info was good, but since Thrak mentioned his wife's phone was off, I checked DH and it had my cell as his mobile number. So I updated it, but that one day off stuff is weird. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mike45LC Posted July 30, 2020 #13 Share Posted July 30, 2020 Thanks for the head's up. I checked, and could not log in. It seems that they have changed the password requirements since the last time I logged in, and my password no longer satisfies their requirements (number of characters, special characters, number, etc.). So I had to reset my password. But once I got in, no strange birth dates or such, all was good. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

msmoger Posted July 30, 2020 #15 Share Posted July 30, 2020 My birthdate is also off by one day (day earlier). I'm not going to lose sleep over it. My passport birthdate is correct. That's all that matters. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My passport birthdate is correct. That's all that matters. That one definitely matters - a LOT! Of course I generally get a "Happy Birthday Jill!" email. I don't know any Jill and have tried to get this fixed a few times but they can never figure out why I get the email. I wonder who Jill might be... 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare CineGraphic Posted July 30, 2020 #18 Share Posted July 30, 2020 The one day off is a "work-around", the system can't have two accounts with the exact same details. Obviously, something is in the works. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whats stranger is that it wont allow me to go in and edit the bd either, says to contact Princess for help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At a minimum they might be merging the lines' loyalty programs. At most, they might be considering combining the two brands together, fearing that the Princess brand took too hard of a PR hit because of the virus. It also might just be part of a much bigger work-around to see that all cancelled sailings are properly credited. Either way, it doesn't concern us at the moment.

Rare gotta cruise again Posted July 31, 2020 #21 Share Posted July 31, 2020 Both of our birth dates are off by a day. We’ve not sailed any other Carnival Corp. lines nor have any cruises booked (or cancelled cruises). What concerns me the most is I’m not sure if I’m now supposed to be celebrating my birthday today or tomorrow!!! 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
