edgee Posted May 25 #1 Share Posted May 25 Many of us find Oceania's (same as Regent's) method of collecting guest input through the end of cruise survey quite frustrating. Surveys can only be done on line while still on the ship..no way to do it after disembarkation. On recent cruises, the end of cruise survey was not even mentioned in writing or in announcements. I actually had to ask how to pull it up on line. Today I received an email from Oceania in advance of my upcoming cruise asking me to click on a link to complete a brief survey regarding the reservation process. When I clicked on the link I immediately got a 404 error indicating an invalid link. Can't make this up. Has this happened to anyone else? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’ve read, and experienced, that using a vpn can result in 404 type errors with some servers. Edited May 25 by Hanoj Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your computer saved you from accessing a phishing link by blocking it with the 404 error code. See the thread following this one. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Redtravel Posted May 25 #5 Share Posted May 25 On my most recent O cruises in the past year, there wasn’t any survey. If you have concerns, don’t wait until end of cruise. Let somebody know that can help. Hope that you tell somebody who listens. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On this cruise we did fill in the mid-cruise survey and have already had a response to one of our queries. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bob from Florida Posted May 25 #7 Share Posted May 25 On our last cruise, midway through the travel, O offered an opportunity for an interim survey, hand written, to bring up any concerns. We expressed dismay that while they would be carrying the men's NCAA Bball finals on the tube, they would not carry the women's NCAA finals. We got back a very nice note from the CD the next day who expressed the same concern and promised that she would do whatever was necessary at the corporate level to make sure this distinction does not recur.

Please read “Sorry You Cancelled Reservation” thread. This is definitely a Phishing scam that your computer luckily blocked when to tried responding. It was recognized by your malware. it seems it was Oceania’s website that got hacked and got all our emails. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

While highly probable that really hasn't been verified yet, just a lot of assumptions and suppositions. It could be a third party that is doing the survey for them that has an odd email address. I find it funny that everyone has a program that stopped it. I use Avast and usually when it sees something that is not right it has a window that pops up and tells you about it. Also no one here has said it opened a file and infected their computer. Has anyone been contacted by Oceania and told that it is a Phishing scam? Definitely is a strong word without proof.

sailaway99 Posted May 26 #14 Share Posted May 26 I am on Vista currently and recieved the same email. Reservations said that they no longer send emails. They have a QR code which you scan to complete the final cruise survey. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

howiefrommd Posted May 28 #16 Share Posted May 28 Somehow people are under the delusion that the post cruise surveys (Oceania and Regent) mean anything. I have frequently completed these (including highlighting exemplary employees) and are met with deafening silence. I will say that surveys I completed mid cruise were acknowledged. I find this with both of these lines. Their onboard product is a good one. Their before and after product needs much improvement. Maybe they should stop contracting things out and take some ownership. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Concur about the post cruise surveys and like you we have found the mid cruise feedback is acknowledged and when negative, a phone call to our stateroom has been received. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Redtravel Posted May 29 #18 Share Posted May 29 If you are onboard and have a problem, it is in Oceania’s best interest to try to fix it. Once you disembark, they cannot fix a problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Issue is that their process for allowing post cruise survey input is not at all user friendly given limited time window and less than convenient process for customers to fill it out. Gives impression that they are not that interested in feedback. Also adds to image of, at least corporate wise, being poor communicators with their customers. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
