cruisingalaska Posted June 10, 2008 #1 Share Posted June 10, 2008 After cruising one cruise with Princess, I received a Gold Captain's Circle card and benefits. My question is now that I'm enrolled, will I receive junk mail to my home. I think the fine print says it is my responsibility to notify them of any change of address. I'd rather not get junk mail forever. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NeurosurgeryNP Posted June 10, 2008 #2 Share Posted June 10, 2008 Occasionally we get pamphlets or emails from them on specials, etc. - about once every other week or so. Nothing too crazy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're kidding, right? Twice a month I'll be hearing from Princess Cruises? That's junk mail to me and I guess I'll have to ask them to stop if you're not kidding... Maybe once a year when the new brochure comes out is fine, but not every other week! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wwinfl91 Posted June 10, 2008 #5 Share Posted June 10, 2008 My estimate is we receive 2-4 items from Princess a week. Now we have been on a few cruises and intend to go on others so if they want to waste the postage and paper I look at them and put them in with the other waste paper to be recycled. Have a great next cruise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My DH gets the stuff in the mail and I get it in my inbox. I've not paid attention to the frequency. Fine with me if they want to apprise me of specials at no cost to me.

Colo Cruiser Posted June 10, 2008 #7 Share Posted June 10, 2008 I agree, you can elect (in your profile) not to have any mailings e-mail or other wise. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Shelly97060 Posted June 10, 2008 #8 Share Posted June 10, 2008 I probably get something once a week from Princess... but (I know this is crazy) I actually like looking at the fliers. You never know when one is going to come along that you can't pass up. I am sure you can call them and opt out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paul929207 Posted June 10, 2008 #9 Share Posted June 10, 2008 The only thing I get from Princess is the Captain's Circle newsletter that I get each quarter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BandBlady Posted June 10, 2008 #10 Share Posted June 10, 2008 Hi We are in the Uk and Princess Elite members and do not:( even get the newsletter despite regestering that we would like to recieve it. Happy cruising:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toto2Kansas Posted June 10, 2008 #11 Share Posted June 10, 2008 I have been bombarded with junk mail and offers from Princess for the past year. Not only snail mail flyers but emails with specials. First I thought it was because for the first time in many years, we didn't have a cruise booked with Princess. So, I booked two future sailings. After a couple of months, I figured maybe it would slow up, but nope, still getting maybe 5 mailings each week and several emails. The thing is, their specials aren't really specials, as I can always beat their advertised price by a huge amount. :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cruisingalaska Posted June 10, 2008 Author #13 Share Posted June 10, 2008 I called 1-800-PRINCESS today and asked them to suppress all US mail and E-mail, including all special flyers, brochures and the Captain's Circle Quarterly magazine. The Captain's circle rep said it would take 6-8 weeks since some flyers are already printed and ready to be mailed at their printer/mail distribution center. The rep said that there are many customers who wish not to receive such mailings, and their computer database is set up to be coded to reflect the customer's preference. Upshot: No big deal... I just called Princess Cruises and told the rep my preference. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lynda90 Posted June 10, 2008 #14 Share Posted June 10, 2008 It's really weird how some people get many and others get none. I get an occasional brochure from Princess, but it's rare. And, I get no email specials. I don't know why as I would like to get some specials emailed to me at least once in awhile. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buddy604 Posted June 10, 2008 #15 Share Posted June 10, 2008 They drown me - not only do I get all the consumer stuff, but they send out agent stuff as well. My best defence is having a future booking in place - it usually holds back the tide a bit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
