Wennfred Posted September 18, 2006 #1 Share Posted September 18, 2006 This is where the Safe is located, its under the T.V., you can use any card that has a magnetic tape on the back to open this safe. It is recommended not to use the Sail & Sign card. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bellaa Posted September 18, 2006 #4 Share Posted September 18, 2006 Hmmmm. Do you think I have a better chance of my hair looking good with the blow dryer stowed this way? Do I have a prayer?:p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CraftyDD Posted September 18, 2006 #5 Share Posted September 18, 2006 The one in your stateroom is not too good. I would suggest you bring your own. Along with an electrical strip and extension cord - since there is only 1 plug in room. Also I used an empty Walmart gift card for safe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

petro772 Posted September 18, 2006 #8 Share Posted September 18, 2006 I know the magnetic strips are the thing of the future, but the four-number codes in the older safes are so easy--just remember a 4-digit number and nothing to lose or misplace or get demagnetized. ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bunyababy Posted September 19, 2006 #11 Share Posted September 19, 2006 Hi Fred...I was a little curious about how this safe deposit box works with the magnetic card? You must input a code once you open the safe with your Sail and Sign card:confused: Otherwise just anybody could come along with a magnetic striped card and access your safe? I did not see any keypad so I was just wondering? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jbags58 Posted September 19, 2006 #12 Share Posted September 19, 2006 I dont think you use your sail n sign card....I've also heard people say dont use your banking card but maybe something like a Grocery store card...thats what i'm going to use. Once the safe is set up to use YOUR card, no one can open it. Just make sure it works...we've had problems with ours before! I like to store my jewelry & money in there when i'm out and about... Of course hubby wont be with me on this one to do it for me....:cool: Hope us chicks can figure it out! :D HAVE FUN! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bunyababy Posted September 19, 2006 #13 Share Posted September 19, 2006 I just called 1-888-CARNIVAL and asked them about the safe. They still thought the Spirit had a keypad:eek: YIKES!!! I asked her to check and she then said that it is a magnetic card swipe ( yes, tell me something I didn't already know!) ha,ha. I asked if I could use any magnetic card and she said NO!! you HAVE to use your S&S card:confused: TOO FUNNY!! I have to say I tend to believe what I read on these boards...posted by experienced cruisers. I am going to bring an empty gift card and use that!!

Wennfred Posted September 19, 2006 Author #15 Share Posted September 19, 2006 I haven't tried this but I guess while the Safe is opened you can swipe any card if you need to change it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Smiles, C.:D The PVP you called said to use the Sail & Sign Card, many people on this board said not to use the Sail & Sign card because it can be demagnetized. Thats why I don't use mine. I use anything else but the Sail and Sign card. Fred Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leo Jay Posted September 20, 2006 #23 Share Posted September 20, 2006 Wennfred is correct. I've always heard "DON'T use your S&S card!" :) Yeah, my girlfriend reads me the instructions for the safe, and 30 seconds later, I swipe my S&S card into it. Idiot. I paged the purser's desk to to confess my folly, and 5 minutes later someone was right up to re-program it. Tipped him, of course. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On our safe, there was a big sign right on it... do NOT use your Sign and Sail card to lock the safe. I kept a old credit card that was replaced with a new expiration date to use on board. That way, if it got demagnitised, I didn't have to worry that a card I wanted to use to spend money was dead a 1000 miles from home. vincenzo:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Since I always needed it when getting off the ship and did not really carry cash off the ship. Put everything in my laniart and just carried that. i also locked up my wallet, and jewlery in the safe. I do not use regular credit cards on the islands either. international charge is too much. something like 3% and that canadd up. We used cash in ports. Husband carried the cash in his wallet, or in my pants pocket in a small change purse. If i wanted to take my camera, i used my fanny pack.
