jinpasco Posted December 23, 2022 #1 Share Posted December 23, 2022 We have registered our CC but have seen stories that once in board it doesn't show up. Do you think it best to stand in line at the kiosk to double check ? Also, is there a way to check ( kiosk.or tv) your daily bill ? Trying to avoid standing in line at the service desk . Thank You Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can use the kiosk but there is no rush. You can wait a day or 2 so there is no need to jump on the line when the line is long. 37 minutes ago, jinpasco said: Also, is there a way to check ( kiosk.or tv) your daily bill ? Yes. You can see charges on the TV but you might see some strange amounts until the last night when things should balance out correctly. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good to know . LOL, how strange are those amounts ??? We also.prepaid the gratuities . Our TA warned us they do things differently and to try to get things in order prior to boarding.

mmbcater Posted December 23, 2022 #4 Share Posted December 23, 2022 You can also see your bill on the MSC for Me app once on board 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bgwest Posted December 23, 2022 #5 Share Posted December 23, 2022 Would someone be kind enough to explain this credit card pre-registration process? I've used a credit card to pay for the cruise fare and also to pre-pay for onboard things such as drinks, tours, etc. Does this not "register" my card for the cruise?

No, you can use any card or cash to apply to your onboard account. Whatever card you used already isn't automatically applied to your onboard account. There is an option to set-up your card before the cruise but it doesn't always work correctly so people are encouraged to do it on the ship. Many other cruise lines register your card during the embarkation process but MSC does it on the ship. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good to know You have two days to register your card once onboard via the kiosks dotted around the ship. You'll be given a smallish ($/£250 I think) value credit line in the meantime to make out of package purchases etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mafig Posted December 24, 2022 #8 Share Posted December 24, 2022 I registered on-line but fully expected it not to take. So on the second day I checked with our Concierge in the YC and I was shocked to see that it did, indeed, register. So, if you are not in the YC, you could pick a time at Guest Relations when the line isn't too long and ask there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shipgeeks Posted December 24, 2022 #9 Share Posted December 24, 2022 It is very quick and easy to do, onboard, with kiosks around the ship. We have never used an ATM or a smartphone, and it wasn't the least bit daunting. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
