  1. As an update to anyone that is interested, I called RC this morning to get a response and was put on hold for best part of 10 minutes whilst they read the email I sent three weeks ago.  The gentleman offered no apology or reasoning and said that his department (post cruise) couldn't do anything and asked me to forward the email to a claims email address.  I tried to explain that this wasn't the nature of my email and that I would just like a response and he said was unable to help any further.  Honestly quite shocked!

    You won't like this, but don''t you think that you have some culpability in this matter? You went on an excursion when you knew or should have know you were over the maximum weight. I am sure if you were stopped from taking the excursion you would have complained about that.

    Yes I do take some responsibility but also take offence to you assuming I would have complained if I was told I couldn't partake. The safety briefings etc are there for a reason and they weren't carried out, I would like RCI to at least acknowledge this fact and advise me on how they are going to improve the standards of their supplier who is ultimately representing their business

    I didnt have a problem with an excursion...  but with my crown and anchor account- someone else having access to my info.... after numerous attempts by phone, email, chat, etc... and nothing being fixed, I found some corporate emails and started emailing them. Needless to say, my issue finally got resolve.. sometimes you have to go up the chain of command to get results.

     

    Don't suppose you have any of the addresses still? I work for a corporate also and know how well an e-mail complaint to a director goes!

    We have zip lined in multiply locations and we have never signed form after or in your case during. 

    It is always the first thing you do, period.

    My theory was they were herding you like cattle and by rushing to get it done forgot the crustal part of signing the forms, their bad.

    Please make that very clear when you do get a response.

    I'm so sorry this happen and wish a you the best.

    Exactly my thoughts.  I've been very detailed in my e-mail, my chosen form of communication to ensure that nothing was left out.  I've pasted below the e-mail to explain the situation.

     

    Good Morning,
     
    I'm writing this email after several unsuccessful calls to Royal Caribbean after our cruise from 8th December - 20th December. We had an excellent time and was quickly convinced that cruising holidays were definitely for us.  
    My only concern has been regarding a complaint I raised and there being no resolution to this. On 16th December we visited St Kitts where we took part in a Royal Caribbean excursion, the sky safari zipline. On the first zipline I injured my back and made the staff aware. They immediately pulled the entire group off of the course, made them return to the tour office where they were made to fill out insurance waivers and be weighed before continuing with excursion. I noted that the maximum weight permitted for the zipline was 275lbs and when we booked the excursion I was 269lbs. However when we returned from holiday I weighed 286lbs, obviously over indulging whilst we were on holiday. 
    The tour staff were adamant that I sign their indemnity waiver to which I refused, if the proper checks were carried out prior to the activity I'm pretty sure that I would have been stopped from taking part and I wouldn't have sustained an injury. 
    Upon returning to the boat I reported the incident to guest services who asked if I would like to visit the medical centre. I told them that I would rest for the evening and see how I felt. The next day I saw the doctor who believed that I had strained my back and prescribed pain relief. I was unable to do much for the rest of the trip as I was in so much pain, I have also been unable to return to work due to still having issues with my back. 
    Personally, I feel the whole ordeal could have been avoided if the tour operator carried out the necessary checks prior to the activity starting. I rang Royal Caribbean on our return to the UK and they have apparently carried out an investigation. They tried to call me on 30th December and left a voicemail saying they would call the next day. I never received a call back so I called yesterday and was told that I would be refunded for the cost of the excursion for myself but I don't feel that this reimburses me for losing out on the last four days of our holiday due to my injury and also I have had no notification regarding whether the tour operator has been made aware of their poor practice and what they will be doing in the future in order to avoid mistakes like this. As I'm sure you're aware, excursions are readily available at all ports but we chose to go with Royal Caribbean as we believed that the standards practiced would be exemplary.
    I would further like to reiterate that the cruise itself was outstanding and the staff on the Anthem of the Seas were outstanding, I would love to be able to recommend the company and cruise to friends and family but as things stand I don't think that the post cruise experience has been sufficient.
     
    I look forward to your response.

    Sorry about your situation and good luck....they made their money from you on the ctruise and it wasn't a Royal tour(I am guessing from your post) so there will be nothing they have to or will do I am guessing.

     

    I have been disappointed with their lack of help and empathy  when it comes to issues with them lately(my own situation included)

     

     

    Hi,

     

    It was an excursion provided by Royal Caribbean, what makes matters worse is that I injured myself on the first of five ziplines.  I informed the staff and they pulled the whole group off the excursion to go back to the office and fill out waiver forms & medical questionnaires, they even tried forcing me to sign one!

  6. Hi guys,

    We went on our first cruise December 2019 onboard the Anthem around the Caribbean, we absolutely loved it from the start and was soon planning our next one!

    The only issue I have is that around half way though the cruise I was injured on an excursion and to be honest I am placing the blame on the tour operators.  I voiced my concern on the ship and I must add that the crew were very helpful.  My injury worsened after the cruise and I'm still receiving treatment for it.  I emailed the post cruise team on 05/01/20 to customerrelationsuk@rccl.com and I'm still yet to receive a response.  I forwarded this to the pre cruise team, got an automated response immediately and then 3 days later they advised that I had e-mailed the correct team and they will respond in due course.  Do you think I should have had at least some response by now?  To be honest the overall lack of response I've received currently makes me question if I really want use Royal going forward.

     

    I look forward to getting advice from any of you knowledgeable guys!
