Rare island lady Posted October 8, 2017 #26 Share Posted October 8, 2017 Who needs Oasis blocks. I seem to have quite a few now, plus more to come. Sent from my HTC One_M8 using Tapatalk I threw in another Oasis cruise, which messed up my plan of getting my next one from Rhapsody (before RCI takes away yet another of my favorite ships :o:(). Now I will get the next one on Oasis...but that's OK..don't have one of those in my collection, so that will work out fine. So far so good, and no duplicates yet. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KuffMUp Posted October 8, 2017 #28 Share Posted October 8, 2017 We have more points than that and we have never received one Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Don't feel bad. We got our Platinum pin one night shy of Emerald. I realize it is one block per household but apparently is one pin per household as well. Can't wait to make it to Pinnacle. Hope it has both our names on it so whoever wears it on a particular night will have their name on it. :eek: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Such a short span level..skipped right over it in one longer cruise. It's a cute pin, looks just like the Diamond pin, but has a little piece of green glass in it versus the clear glass. ;) And you can always ask for your pin if you did not get it (or lose one) at the LA desk. They always have bags of them on hand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, since this thread is about crystal blocks, I was asking about a crystal block. Thank goodness it did not hit my foot. It was sitting on the shelf over the fireplace (lesson learned) and the housekeeper accidentally knocked it off while dusting. Crystal block hitting a brick hearth is not a pretty sight!

Dennis#1 Posted October 8, 2017 #41 Share Posted October 8, 2017 I think you can have the block shipped to your home instead of putting it in your suitcase. Sent from my iPhone using Forums Maybe RCI recently changed their policy, but they refused to mail a block to us on a cruise out of Venice, Italy. Per the LA, our choice was to either take the block now or loose your right to ever get it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Per the LA, our choice was to either take the block now or loose your right to ever get it. That's unfortunate if it's true. I wonder what happens when the ship runs out of blocks occasionally? The Splendor LA did have crystal blocks to hand out. She apparently made a note in the records that we did not take the crystal block. A few years later, I called the C&A Customer Service Office on another matter. During this phone call I also mentioned that we did not get a crystal block for our 280 cruise day milestone on the August 26, 2011 Splendor Cruise. They did some research during the call and found a notation that we refused to take the crystal block on this cruise. Thus, no Splendor block. Since then, I was able to trade one of my duplicate blocks for a Splendor Block. So things worked out OK in the end. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Serenade ran out of blocks on one cruise I was on, the LA said they would ship it to me later. That "later" was 6 months! :o I had actually forgotten all about it by then.
