Leroyr55 Posted June 8, 2020 Report Share Posted June 8, 2020 My final payment for my Sept 26th Cruise is due June 28th. As of today I still have not received my prior cruise refund or my OBC refund to my account. So the big question no refund by the 28th what should I do. There is a big difference between the cruise prices. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt Posted June 8, 2020 Report Share Posted June 8, 2020 Is your question should you make final payment because you are concerned it may get cancelled and another delay in getting a refund? Or something else? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leroyr55 Posted June 8, 2020 Author Report Share Posted June 8, 2020 I’m still waiting for my first refund. If not received by the 28th should I pay anyway for the next cruise. Trying to see if I can use that for leverage with Royal if I haven’t received my refund I guess. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think I’m the past others have been able to apply a FCC to a cruise that was already Paid in full and got a refund cash credit back for the debit balance. I’m think it might have been @Lovetocruise2002 who did it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We applied the FCC about a week after final payment and we got the refund back on our credit card. Neesa 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Who knows. I have a load of FCC's that I have to place and am running out of applicable cruises upon which to place them. I'm hoping that they will allow me to : 1) Apply more than 1 FCC to a booking or 2) Apply my FCC to a fully paid booking or 3) Push the applicable dates for using the FCC's out into the future so that I can apply them to further out bookings. I realize that what they WANT me to do is book another cruise, but that is unlikely until things go back to relative normalcy.

I think it depends how crafty and how much of a fighter your TA is. WAAAYTOOO and Ogilthorpe 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The FCC was more than enough to pay the remaining balance and the net result was a nice refund after the FCC was applied. That was almost 2 months ago. At the time, I asked if I could book a new cruise and use FCC for the deposit. I was told that wasn't possible. Sometimes it seems like they like to make up new rules just to keep us guessing.
