New Spam law - Canada - July 1, 2014

[Safety Squirrel]

Celebrity officials

 

Received your e-mail regarding new spam law in Canada July 1st. Have tried several times -- cannot enter state/province so cannot submit form. Everything else can be filled in

 

HELP -- still want to receive e-mails from Celebrity. Any suggestions on how to enter province and submit.

Make sure you have entered "Country", in your case Canada, before trying to enter State/Province. I recently had this same issue with another company. Frustrated me no end!

Celebrity, are the emails going out slowly? I got 2 emails from you this morning but none related to the spam laws

I haven't received this email. Not surprising, though, because despite my countless attempts and 11 Celebrity sailings under my belt, I rarely get any emails from them :(

I received 2 today, nothing regarding spam either. Probably the same two you got Cruise Junky.

Since Celebrity is a US company , are they affected by the Canadian spam law?

Like many thing there is a Nigerian Prince who knows the answer.:rolleyes:

No , they are not exempt. If the message is received on a Canadian based computer it falls under the law

I also received the two e-mails regarding cruises. The e-mail that I received with the form attached was regarding my next cruise, i.e. booking excursions etc. So Celebrity may not be sending it to every Canadian on their e-mail list at this time.

 

Also, have received an e-mail from concerns@celebrity.com saying they are looking into this.:)

 

As Christine has posted the spam legislation, most Canadians should be receiving messages from companies they deal with -- I know that I have been receiving e-mails and can either say yes or no. Has been beneficial on some companies that I receive e-mails from but never requested them.

Have any Canadian CC posters received an e-mails from Celebrity asking their re-premissiom to send"sales/spam" e-mails to them? I don't think I have seen one yet (unless I deleted it).

 

Very unclear on how this can be enforced? May it will have the same penalties as removing that tag from Furniture? You know the one that says "Under penalty of law do not remove this tag".

Bad news: He's been dethroned so there isn't much he can do now. He recently reached out to me to help him get his money out of the country and offered me a hefty commission! Very kind of him. Hopefully when all is done he'll be in a position to help everyone again and I'll have enough dough to sail in the big suites the rest of my cruising days!! :D

I think I know how Celebrity is getting around their issue with the Canadian spam laws. We live near Chicago but my DW got an email from them today advertising what appears to be Canadian cruise bookings. She said it was for packages including airfare but all of the included airports were in Canada. So they've solved the problem by sending their Canadian emails to past passengers in the USA!! Easy peasy!

Received e-mail today requesting permission from Celebrity to send e-mails when Canada's spam law becomes effective July 1st

 

They have fixed the problem of not being able to enter the province. So -- returned the form to Celebrity and will remain on their mailing lists.:D

 

Thank you to Celebrity and my e-mail sent to "concerns@celebrity"

received the e-mail today and filled out the form attached

[monicajay]

Got my anti-spam e-mail request today. I guess they just want to make sure I want to be on their list.

[TeaBag]

Received email from Celebrity, RCI and Nordstrom. That's great, I'll be able to cruise still and wear nice stuff!:D

[Cruise Junky]

I got the celebrity request at my work email, but not home which is where I get my Celebrity email...hmmmm. I liked my Viking cruise lines the best, by consenting you got entered for a free cruise
