elliotlake12 Posted October 25, 2023 #29 Share Posted October 25, 2023 (edited) My nightmare with this issue continues. Contacted NCL, was told that since I booked thru travel agent (Exp.....) I would have to contact them.Did so,long conversation with that agent, who contacted ncl agent on the phone. Was informed my payment was declined, (Oct. 18)and I would receive refund within 7-10 days(by 28th) No reason why it was declined,( even tho I have confirmation email from ncl saying balance paid) or why I was not informed.Don,t have much faith the refund will be processed, guess have to try to have patience(not) Edited October 25, 2023 by elliotlake12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your payment was declined by whom? Your credit card or NCL? If NCL, do they have your money, or don't they? Has your credit card been charged? I got lost somewhere on this road.

elliotlake12 Posted October 25, 2023 #31 Share Posted October 25, 2023 Apparently NCL declined my payment,(for shore excursions) (which now show as have balance owing) yes credit card has been charged,NCL is supposed to refund my credit card Don't blame you for being confused, I too am " lost on the road" and frustrated.

So, NCL took your payment, but declined to apply it to the shore excursions? Are the excursions sold out or cancelled? Why aren't they just applying your payment to the excursions you requested? From the outside looking in, something seems to be getting lost in translation. Good luck figuring it out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

elliotlake12 Posted October 25, 2023 #34 Share Posted October 25, 2023 (edited) NCL took payment, booked excursions,charged my credit card. I then received an email showing the excursion confirmation, but showed balance owing on the phone with my travel agent,she was told by ncl that credit card was declined,no reason given So, will wait for promised refund to credit card If and when refund is processed , I am not booking online any more excursions, have lost faith. All the previous posters above on this topic have had NCL screw up Shore Excursions in a mind boggling array of different ways Edited October 25, 2023 by elliotlake12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elliotlake12 Posted October 26, 2023 #35 Share Posted October 26, 2023 Finally, problem solved, got thru to supervisor, turns out prior agent was incorrect about credit card refund needed(😤) This agent corrected problem in under a minute,received confirmation 🤗🤗 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
reveur15 Posted October 26, 2023 #36 Share Posted October 26, 2023 Obviously a lot of people who are not aware of that problem will have a bad surprise when they will look their reservation. It looks like you need to call (more than one time) to solve that, because they don't correct it automatically. And they still didn't solve that problem : Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OhioJourneys Posted October 27, 2023 Author #37 Share Posted October 27, 2023 On a high note...watch your credit card statements for refund from NCL for port charges! We saw two credits pending that didn't match anything we had ever paid. After calling customer service, a supervisor advised me these are valid refunds for port charges we paid for Ashdod and the difference in the port fees from Haifa to Athens. Yeah! I do like getting $$ when it's really owed to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not sure the actual refunds that you received, however, if you multiply it times $4, 000 cruisers it adds up. Has anyone else receive these refunds?

OhioJourneys Posted November 7, 2023 Author #40 Share Posted November 7, 2023 All I know is what NCL told me these refunds were for. Sorry. Every day I check my res to make sure my balance is still "paid in full", $0.00. After all the problems, I worry one of those refunds will show up as balance due!

I was told it's a "glitch" in their system and I need to call shore excursion desk to rebook everything and must request original pricing orvthey will book at new higher price. Just another headache to deal with. I love. NCL, but the 2 cruises have been a lot of work! yeah, we had problems with Choir of Man on the Encore a few weeks ago. Never did figure out what happened but we saw it anyway, reservations not needed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
