Save 10% on Carnival Gift e-Cards through Verizon program

[printingchick]

I can't get the system to register me. I click "Register now" and just get the "I'm thinking about it..." spinning ball. Very frustrating. GREAT news, since my daughter is planning a honeymoon cruise on Carnival. But not if I can't even register!!! Grrrr...:mad:

You guys are awesome, just made my onboard shore excursions affordable.

$500 are sold out, but $100 is still available!

[fyrmnjim]

Unfortunately, I'm going on Princess this year. Maybe start gathering cards for a trip on the Vista next year.

[Swampbaby]

I just got some $100 cards. Must have more than usual this go round as they've lasted much longer than before.

Was looking at the AARP postings for how long it takes for the cards to arrive. They say 1 to 1 1/2 weeks. Is that also true for the Verizon cards? I've only purchased the eCertificates from Verizon in the past and they are instant.

I called Verizon and she told me that they usually are shipped in a day or two.

Where do you look for the cards on the AARP site?

At the top under Rewards for Good but understand they are gone.

Thank you! We have been members for a couple years but we don't ever remember to check for discounts.

Never knew about these Carnival Discount Cards from Verizon until last month, but when I found out and checked they were all marked as sold out. I kept checking frequently, but instead of ever coming back in stock, they instead got removed from the site altogether and I figured they didn't expect to get any more in-stock any time soon.

 

Today, they came back in stock again, but sold out in hours and I didn't make it. Both the 100 and 500 values are sold out again.

 

For those who watch these, is it likely they will have more tomorrow, or in a few days, or is more likely that August's batch is sold out and unlikely to see more until September? Is there a typical pattern?

 

Just want to know what my chances are.

They also have to be mailed in to your TA or Royal directly certified. And you can't use them for OBC. Not many people buy them things! :p

 

 

So...with the Royal ones-you can use them with a TA? We have a cruise booked with a TA, can I use them with that booking?

I was online at 7:09 am and they were already sold out! :eek:

I believe RCCL will let you use gift cards the same way Carnival does. This is a certificate. Sometimes Verizon offers A Carnival certificate with similar rules instead of a gift card. Always read the rules and fine print

[LindaJSteele]

For the past few months on both Verizon and AARP they have been the gift cards..much easier to use. No more sending in a certificate..just call or e-mail my PVP and give her the gift card numbers. .done!

True. But I have never once seen RCI gift cards offered on Verizon or aarp. That's the problem. Do they even offer gift cards at all?

I just checked and the $500 cards are available right now.

[pirate4me2]

Thanks, i managed to grab one to pay for excursions on some upcoming cruises. :) Thanks for the heads up!

[whisker2193]

Thanks! I had been looking recently and waiting patiently. I wouldn't have known that they were in without you. I bought $3000 worth to pay for an upcoming cruise and love saving ten percent. Thanks again!
