Using OBC in Casino only

[nlktx49]

I know the OBC questions have been done to death, but mostly about being able to cash out in casino to use elsewhere. 

 

My husband and I have an OBC of $600 on our October cruise for not cancelling our much delayed April 2020 cruise. We want to use the total amount in the Casino on slots. Is there anything specific we need to do at the cashier's cage in the Casino? Or do we just charge our slots playing to our account?

 

Also, I've seen posts about a $25 play amount added to Platinum players since there won't be Slot or Blackjack tournaments. Will that be automatic or will it require a trip to the cashier's cage?

 

Thanks for any clarification you can provide on this burning issue!!!

Yes, you just play and charge to your account. Just to be sure, I would play for awhile then check your S and S account to be sure it’s coming out of the OBC.

Yes you have to check with the casino host to have your fun play added to your account.

Yes, on the machine itself, you'll select "charge to my room" and it will then charge your folio.  Check this after a few minutes on the app and you should see an updated account balance...

you will have to charge from your sail and sign account to your players card.  The credit doesn't show up automatically.  you have to make a charge first.  Also, the $25 isn't added you have to ask.

I received the $25 in cash from the cashier on the Pride.

I used the sliding quarter machine to purchase $20 in quarters. Used the buckets provided and cash the quarters at the cage. Cage didn’t blink an eye..  turned $120 obc into cash the 1st night.

Ditto on Carnival Sunrise (9/16).  Very surprising.

Yeah, something about that didn't scan correctly.   

Maybe they repeatedly purchased $20 in quarters?  

[jdixon0631]

Sorry type that wrong. Yes wife and myself cashed in $20 worth of quarters several times.
