Neesa Posted April 23, 2020 Report Share Posted April 23, 2020 We are booked in a Jr. Suite on the Odyssey of the seas for Thanksgiving 2020. I went ahead and purchased many things but then the 40% sale occurred. After reviewing the numbers and consultations with @Lovetocruise2002, I felt comfortable enough to bundle some things and purchase the Key which I felt was a better price then I have previously seen. So I cancelled and re-priced a great deal, huge dollar amount. Am I also looking at the 30 to 45 day turn around for my refunds? Thanks also to @Jaymac Radio, I purchased the water park passes for the three of us, quite comfortable I can tuck away somewhere thus staying with my family and not purchasing a cabana, as that price for this week is still super high. Be safe and stay healthy everyone! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I cancelled a bunch of CP purchases and then repurchased at the lower price so I have some refunds coming, too. I really don't know but I am expecting the refund to be "delayed" similar to what the cruise refunds have experienced. After all, I feel certain that these "sales" are designed to infuse cash and it would be counterproductive (from their aspect) to turn right around and immediately refund the higher priced items in exchange for lower prices. They are looking to hold onto ALL cash as long as they can. Neesa 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vacation Crazy Posted April 23, 2020 Report Share Posted April 23, 2020 See below. I asked the same question yesterday. I guess we wait and see!!!

Can you please keep us in the loop on the time frame of this refund? It used to be so seamless to cancel and rebook something in the cruise planner. I'm curious if they will be holding these funds too. Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Snotarni Posted April 23, 2020 Report Share Posted April 23, 2020 Yep... no refund from my Cruise Planner Re-book. I'm assuming it's going to be lumped in with the rest; 30+ days. But, I'll advise when it shows up! Neesa 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CrznTxn Posted April 23, 2020 Report Share Posted April 23, 2020 I think I am in the exception. My cruise planner purchases were all refunded within 30 days of our cancelled March 22 cruise although it was done over several weeks. But the taxes, gratuities and insurance has not been refunded as of yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was just told thru the RCCL Messenger that they've made several errors and that I will not get my FCC (from my 3/16 cancelled cruise) for another 2 weeks (yesterday they promised it today) AND I will not get my Cruise Planner refund for another 30 days due to an internal error. I recommend, that everyone take the promised days and double (or triple) them. I wouldn't be so frustrated if I hadn't been told each time I asked that it was "processed and being sent out".

Hubby just asked me about that as I moved around bunch of things for Odyssey Inaugural. I cancelled my Deluxe Beverage package and swapped it for the new price of $49. Then 30mins later, I kicked myself because in my excitement over the price drop, I forgot to check what VOOM+DX would be. As it turned out VOOM+DX was cheaper than DX+VOOM two device plan, so I had to cancel my $49DX and get VOOM+DX instead. Anyway, because I did that twice, I now have two charges on my CC and no refunds back yet. Hubby asked why there was about $1000 in new charges yesterday...oops...

I did the same thing (forgot to check the VOOM+DX Pkg price). It turned out that there was only about $1 difference in price so I just let it go. In one case, it was only 50 cents difference. Not worth the rebooking (not to mention, tying up the money) effort. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Everyone with cancelled cruises from RC still haven’t gotten our cruise planner refunds, nothing is going to be quick. Just curious - did you go in to cruise planner and cancel the purchases? Or did they get canceled as part of the cruise getting canceled. I canceled "The Key" in the cruise planner for our May cruise and had refund in 3 days. That was before I knew about the 125% Cruise Planner credit option. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was not eligible for the 125% cruise planner. It is now April 24th and I JUST received my refund this morning Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
