Carnival Gift Cards

[jm86751235]

I read a bunch of posts on here before I decided to buy, saw a bunch of problems... Just wanted to say that I made my purchase about 10 minutes ago, recieved my cards via email, and already applied them to my booking and saved 10%. THANK YOU for the savings and THANK YOU staff that works to keep everyone happy and makes sure that people get what they paid for. You all rock.

not currently sold out, but the checkout isnt working, are AArp aware of this issue and looking to remedy this?

I havent been able to purchase the last 2 days now, Feb 23/24. Says payment issue, yet its the card they have on file to bill my membership.

@JustinL92 Hi Justin, you spoke with our escalations team and determined there was a discrepancy in the spelling of your name and that was affecting the billing details. You purchased a gift card since you contacted us last. Are you continuing to have this issue or is it a new issue that's occurring? Please provide me with as much info as possible and I will look into it further!

[AARPJanelleM]

@NicholasS721365 AARP is aware and investigating the issue further; thank you for letting us know!

Is not being able to checkout right now an issue for everyone or is it just happening to some people? Is it just a problem with purchasing Carnival gift cards? I've been trying to purchase the gift cards for a week now, but based on past posts, people were buying them not too long before I tried. I have to say, this is pretty disappointing.

[AARPJanelleM]

@FanceeDubbleU I reviewed your account and I see we escalated this to our designated team on January 20. The escalations team is working on getting to the bottom of the error message you're receiving at checkout. You can expect to hear back by Friday the 27. I'm always here to help!

[LeoCMBell]

I am having the same problem. I've been trying to check out Carnival gift cards for the past week. I've tried different methods of payment. Nothing works. Can you please help?

[AARPJanelleM]

@LeoCMBell Are you receiving an error message? What exactly is happening when you attempt to purchase the gift card? Please feel free to send me a private message so I can gather additional info that may be needed. Steps to send a private message can be found here: How do I send a private message

[LeoCMBell]

I was finally able to check out. I turned off my VPN and used a credit card that matched exactly what my AARP account says (address).

I can't seem to find any gift card at all. The link takes me to an empty page.

Dang.  I just finished signing up for AARP for this one specific reason.  And boom.  No cards.  I had no idea they come and go.  I thought it was just always an option.  What a let down. 

[JenniferW598008]

Me too!

[DavidB617100]

The way some are saying they paid for the cards and haven't yet received them a couple months ago, I'm not sure I want to take a chance.
