Responder Posted August 13, 2011 #1 Share Posted August 13, 2011 FYI.. The Regent site has problems on the "my account" page, so don't climb the walls when you see there are no saved cruises, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jhp Posted August 13, 2011 #2 Share Posted August 13, 2011 Thanks. Climbing those walls is really rough on the nails and knees. Especially when you see after your tier level: Yet to sail! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mrlevin Posted August 14, 2011 #7 Share Posted August 14, 2011 Thanks for the heads up. After today's letter from Regent, I should just cancel all of my cruises. :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mrlevin Posted August 14, 2011 #9 Share Posted August 14, 2011 Do tell Marc, if you can; what was in the "letter". Dave, it was an annoyance. It was marked "time sensitive - open now" so I thought it had to do with our cruise in October. Then, I saw that it was addressed to Seven Seas Society Members so I thought it was fixing concierge benefits. Well, it was just a marketing letter for NEXT YEAR's Alaska cruises. Two pages and they didn't even print on back. Total waster of money; total was of my time. If they can't get their act together, they are going to run the cruiseline into the Mariana Trench. I hope they never send anythng that is "time sensitive" to me at home in the future as it will probably go straight into the trash. Hopefully, all the problems on the website (has been getting worse throughout the day) are a sign that they are fixing SSS benefits; more likely, they are just screwing up further or are being hit by a cyber attack. I know it wasn't crashed due to excursion bookings from the 2 April 2012 cruise. ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jhp Posted August 14, 2011 #10 Share Posted August 14, 2011 Marc, "time-sensitive" to me is always a signal that what is inside is junk. Like some oufit trying to sell me an extended car warranty, or worse yet, life insurance. ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jhp Posted August 14, 2011 #11 Share Posted August 14, 2011 Things seem to be up and running again, but no changes re: Gold and above for early bookings for the first cruise on April 2. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know it wasn't crashed due to excursion bookings from the 2 April 2012 cruise. ;) Mid last week we received a similar "time sensitive" envelope from Regent which had 2 pages trying to sell the late 2011 cruises that have been advertised ad nausium. Haven't gotten one for Alaska cruises as yet. It was also addressed to Seven Seas Society Members. The number of glossy brochures from both Regent and Oceania as well as Seabourn and Silver Seas is becoming absurd. In a way this is a good thing based on the post office threatening to layoff 100K employees. Maybe the luxury cruise lines can single handidly keep the US Postal Storage Service from losing billions of dollars every year and we can keep our 6 times per week delivery of junk mail. :D Hope this news from Gerry is what we all expect although a little late for the first concierge cruise. Or, will we be disappointed once again when nothing appears?? Only time will tell or not tell. :confused: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
