It does not include all my purchases from before the cruise started. Let's hope I can find all of those dinner reservations and shore excursions pre-booked.

That is not part of your on board charges. Would you really want to be charged for them again? With hal it’s a must to keep paperwork. Hal is very bad (in my experience) with accounting. If you don’t keep paperwork unfortunately it’s on you. You should also bring that paperwork with you because hal never used to accept screen prints or online proof. I don’t know if that’s changed.

This wasn’t in response to your questions. It was response to another poster whose account did reappear. I addressed your question near the top of this thread.

Every cruise our prebooked reservations for dinners and excursions were counted for the "extra days" UP TO the $ 300 per day. (SO: Hiring Private car AND buying a nice handbag or jewel in the evening IMO: 1 day extra). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they do you will be in trouble because you are being charged again. I wouldn’t want to pay twice for mine. Maybe others do? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChinaShrek Posted September 12, 2022 Author #32 Share Posted September 12, 2022 i just got off the phone with the Mariner Society and she quickly agreed to give me my three points back for onboard spending. She saw that it was zero currently but I'm not sure if she saw that it had been 3 originally or if she just trusted me. She did say that points often disappear and that I should check the totals frequently. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can’t say that the spending points have disappeared. Looks like the Mariners tracking is as good as their cruise website. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

boze9999 Posted September 13, 2022 #36 Share Posted September 13, 2022 The Navigator App is convenient - however as a very frequent HAL cruiser, I recommend going to the guest desk daily (or frequently) and getting their PRINTOUT of your folio. It will show debits AND credits, which is helpful - especially if you purchased items prior to sailing. You can then cure any discrepencies as they occur vs at the end of the cruise (when the lines are long!). And Definitely.....get your PRINTED final statement on the last night or morning of your cruise, as again - it details the (mostly) final accounting of credits and debits - and allows you one last time to debate any errors. Once you leave the ship, the accounting corrections are slow and sometimes frustrating with HAL's corporate accounting department (OnBoardBilling@HollandAmerica.com). Just some good advice that we religiously follow! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We usually have a lot pre-purchased items @Florida_gal_50 some purchases get full credit back and others partial and sometimes (as we all know) HAL incorrectly charges you for something on board and you are due credit. I find the running detail on a printed daily invoice from the front desk is more timely and more detailed than the Navigator app. This is especially so on the final bill where we've almost always had an invoice which needs correcting and beneficially, with a printed final invoice you have the entire cruise folio in paper vs the app (which zeros out after a period of time). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Mary229 Posted September 13, 2022 #39 Share Posted September 13, 2022 Update on recent cruise where HIA, drinks and expenditures should have maxed out at 24. Because the cruise/tour was 11 days I was only credited 22 which would reflect the above state policy of max 2x number of days 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Florida_gal_50 Posted September 14, 2022 #42 Share Posted September 14, 2022 I really don't have any problems with the statements in navigator. They don't show pre-purchases because it make no sense to show that. You do get credit for that before someone misunderstands. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChinaShrek Posted September 14, 2022 Author #43 Share Posted September 14, 2022 To be honest, I think the Mariner Society can look up your bill or charges if they want to. That didn't seem necessary in my case but a previous representative mentioned that can look everything up in their computer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Mary229 Posted September 17, 2022 #44 Share Posted September 17, 2022 The app will usually retain the full expenditures until you cruise again. It seems to be able to hold only a single statement. There is a function where you can have that statement emailed to you as a pdf if you want a permanent record 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
