Whilst it shows the Pay in full amount as being £xxxx, the 'Pay Other Amount' box has a $ sign rather than a £ - is that just a just the app being stupid and not translating the character, or does it (hopefully not!) mean that I need to convert £750 into USD, and enter that value? To confirm, just made part payment using the app and it incorrectly shows the $ against the payment. I entered an amount (over £750) and it has correctly appeared against my Amex card. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Number34 Posted May 3, 2023 #27 Share Posted May 3, 2023 Thanks for the advice so far and I contacted my travel agent today and made a part payment of £750 using my Amex Nectar card which had the offer. Disappointed that my both my Amex BA and Platinum cards did not have the offer. Have requested a Nectar for my wife and will see if that works when it arrives.

I will be very interested to see your experience in the UK with a travel agent. I believe in the US a payment to a TA goes directly to NCL but I worry in the UK the payment goes into the TAs account and they later pay NCL when final payment is due. I sincerely hope it works, it will certainly be interesting to see. Who does it list as the Payee on your Amex account? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cybergremlin Posted May 4, 2023 #29 Share Posted May 4, 2023 Payment made on Monday to NCL and credit applied this morning very efficient. Wish I could say the same for RBS rewards account which had a similar offer that is still pending 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crow99 Posted May 4, 2023 #30 Share Posted May 4, 2023 Ohh! I sail in a couple of weeks - used one last time (and the time before). Anyone tried using this to purchase onboard credit? Can’t see myself booking another one in time! But £1.5k of credit could be fun! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is spend with NCL. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crow99 Posted May 4, 2023 #32 Share Posted May 4, 2023 Just looked can only add a max of $1k per cabin but that would trigger one redemption. Will then just have to book another cruise 😂 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For the Amex offer, did you get any email from amex saying that you used the offer once you made payment. Or did the credit just appear? I made payment on Tuesday but haven't had the credit yet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ended up in my spam folder though, so might be worth checking in there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I make sure I take a screenshot of the offer saved to my card just in case of any issues down the line, but haven't had a problem before. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Number34 Posted May 8, 2023 #41 Share Posted May 8, 2023 Paid via travel agent on 3 May and credit of £200 on 4 May. Unfortunately the offer has now disappeared, presumably oversubscribed now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good to know it worked via a travel agent. 👍 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gregluk Posted May 18, 2023 #43 Share Posted May 18, 2023 Does anyone know who does the payment go to for the Upgrade Advantage program if you are successful? Is the payment to Norwegian cruise lines or a 3rd party, and if it's NCL would it work for cashback like the above if you spent £750 . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
